Which means... what?
Well it could be a good signal that the capitalist system is working.

Well the stock market is on the up several days in row now.
But is this just a bear rally?

I had to pawn my crystal ball:2razz:
You don't need one, Obama is the messiah and you believe whatever he tells you.
Don’t you know that the economy wasn’t structurally sound until Obama declared it; when Bush said the same thing, he was being a “moron.”

Can you actually discuss something with out your partisan histrionics?

Its rather silly to look at the stock market over the last week and conclude that 'things are on their way back up'.
Well with indexes up and volume up it is a good technical sign
Well then... since we're on the road to recovery, I guess we dont need all the spending planned for and past next year. Right?Well with indexes up and volume up it is a good technical sign

Ah. The economy is fixed, but we must keep fixing it. Gotcha.No I think that would be a very bad idea at this point in time to stop the spending.

Yes, it is.Not what I said.
So, at what point WILL you argue that the spending planned for over the next several years should be cancelled?
While Bank of America aims to return the funds, Chief Executive Officer Kenneth Lewis praised TARP last week for preventing a financial “meltdown.” JPMorgan Chase & Co. CEO Jamie Dimon said it helped stabilize the banking system.

Why can't the additional spending be stopped while the banks pay back their loans?When the banks have paid back what they borrowed in full.

Somehow, there's a disconnect here, as what you;re sayimg makes no sense.Because at this point in time it would lead to an absolute collapse in our financial system and the dollar would not be worth the paper it is printed on IMO.

We gave $X to the banks, that needs to be repaid, and we're planning to speld $Y on everything else.
You're arguing that we need to keep spending $Y on everything else, until the banks repay $X.
Where is the necessary relationship between those two things?
There is a LOT more spending planned than the loans to the banks.What spending are you specifically talking about? I was talking about the loans to banks.

But even then -- we have to keep spending money on the banks until they pay it all back?
