Economy

I see the stock market is up 172 pts this morning. This has to be the screwiest way to run an economy ever conceived by man. Guess that makes me a commie socialist or something but capitalism strikes me as a RELIGION based on, and determined by, FAITH more than anything else. They always have reasons, the high priests we call economists, for why the market goes up and down but they always end up contradicting themselves and exposing their ultimate ignorance. All you have to do is look at the floor with everybody screaming in the old days to think, Is this any way to run an economy? And now with the computer programs buying and selling ... consumers are victims, I swear.
