Are there really companies signing up for this, not making their targets, and paying to stay in, just for shareholder "good-will"? Can I get names, so I can sell them short? (Joke. The stock market is a corrupt farce.)<BR/><BR/>As far as gov't paying people not to grow stuff, that's been around forever.

It is a shame the So-Called Mainstream Media simply accepts the status quo as the preferred one. The SCMM should be outraged that Obama borked his promises about bill signing, one after another:<BR/>1. No pork<BR/>2. 5-20 days of review<BR/>3. Responsible Spending<BR/>4. Blah Blah Blah<BR/><BR/>Oh yes and Hillary made 100k trading futures?

She's an expert who knows all about hog futures.<BR/><BR/>Obama should be careful, though, as he's just as subject to insider trading rules as anyone, and he's got lots of inside information on government pork.OBloodyHellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09992539380115488567noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6427940.post-54330106623829747092009-03-30T15:41:00.000-04:002009-03-30T15:41:00.000-04:00Thanks Anon -- Glad you enjoyed and thank you for ...Thanks Anon -- Glad you enjoyed and thank you for the kind feedback.Bob Cosmoshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13420771432114368417noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6427940.post-65507865045584797582009-03-30T15:36:00.000-04:002009-03-30T15:36:00.000-04:00Oh, God!
