The US Dollar index staged another sharp rally today and is now up 16.35% from its lows back in March. The Euro is down more than 16% from its highs earlier this year. For those that have plans to go to Europe anytime soon, at least it's 16% cheaper for now. Unfortunately for foreigners coming here, it's the reverse.
The richest one percent of this country owns half our country's wealth, five trillion dollars. One third of that comes from hard work, two thirds comes from inheritance, interest on interest accumulating to widows and idiot sons and what I do, stock and real estate speculation. It's bullshit. You got ninety percent of the American public out there with little or no net worth. I create nothing. I own.
