“It’s naive to think ” I don’t see where I labeled anything but a specific opinion or statement.
If I meant to call Alex naive I would have said “Alex, you are naive”. I didn’t do that, did I? What do you get out of distorting what was said?
As I spoke directly to the context of Alexs statement -of which was Wall streets “reaction”, I resorted to producing nothing more than a basic fact of how our government works, which I believe, is pertinent. I also said market, not economy. Vanity? Ideology? Please.
Shall I assume you are telling me Wall Street and foreign markets wait with baited breath for the President to speak? LOL. Yeah, Greenspan, Bernancke(?) and the Fed are/were irrelevent. You don’t get it because you don’t think about it. At least not far enough.
I also fail to see where I demanded anything of anyone. You are totally misrepresenting anything that I opined.
An afterthought, there has/had been alot of growth in the markets and US economy during the last seven years (regardless of the cause that isn’t my point) and alot of people smarter (well, supposedly) than either you or I were saying things like “unprecedented growth” “robust economy” blah blah… who gave little if any credit to GW.
My point is, if he isn’t (and he isn’t imho) responsible for the “boom” for want of a better word he isn’t responsible for the “bust” either.
The fact that you don’t get it, well that is your problem.
