Hinting at the numbers

Just saw a report on the Huff Post regarding the president's statement " I am looking forward to sEeing the numbers" . The piece states that some one knowing the numbers before others would enable them to make money as a result. And these profits would be at the expense of others. That concept is exactly what's wrong with the left's concept of the ecomomy. It is not a zero sum game. If person A earns 1 million more than person B, that does not take 1 penny away from person B. While it may not be fair (whatever that means), It's not fair that Tom Brady earns $30, million/year and I don't. Bot that 30 mill takes not 1 penny from me. Once you get over the Zero sum game thought understanding the economy is a lot easier.

They still believe denial to be a river in Egypt.

Tell that to Martha Stewart!

Insider information is against the law!

What's wrong with the right is that they are fools, frauds, and purveyors of lies!

Insider information had NOTHING to do with Martha Stewart's imprisonment. Her problem wasmerely lying to a federal agent. ShE did 6 months for that

Insider information is an iffy proposition. If you have a dynamite idea and make a bunch of dough out of it, are you guilty of insider information?

Again with the spoon fed shit. Do you ever verify anything before you make yourself look stupid.
