More than Annoying

Yesterday the government announced that we Americans lost over a half million jobs in November.  That was the worst job loss in 34 years.

The stock market perked up nicely on the news, with the Dow up about 3% and NASDAQ up just over 4.4%.  

As if you needed it, this provides further evidence that the financial community cares little about the financial health of our country and in fact generally moves in the opposite direction from the fortunes of ordinary American citizens.  

Does anyone besides the Old Amigo find this disgusting?
