California will go first, and it appears they are well on their way. Obama's dream come true - almost. Still has 56 states to go after Cal.
The economy collapsed under W. Thank God - we're not there anymore

Suze is right in the first segment BUT, and it's a very big but, she does not take in consideration the ECB bond buying last week.

She IS totally correct in the last minute or so. It's not up to the government, it's up to us to fund the 401's to the max, to get out of debt, etc.

I have the utmost respect for Suze, and agree - with most of what she says, but - sm

I think she's still a little too much on the side of the Stock Market. "Fund those 401K's?" With what pretend money?

If I can't get out of this MT hole I'm in currently, and find a job that actually pays, instead of slowly sucks the lifeblood out of me, I'm going to have to raid whatever is left in my 401K to pay rent. (If there's anything left in it. I gave up looking at the balance when I could no longer afford to fund it, and after the second Stock Market collapse in 2007 (the first one being after 9/11, which my account NEVER recovered from).

The Stock Market (and it's greedy shareholders) are a big part of what got us all into this mess. Many good companies (MTSOs included) turn bad once they offer stock in the company. They everyone wants money, money, money instead of quality. Who pays the bill? The people who actually work for those companies. Their extra cash comes out of our empty pockets.

Is Anyone Watching Susie Orman's Money Class?Feb 08, 2012
I have been watching Susie Orman's Money Class for the last five weeks.  She is one smart lady.  I have already made financial mistakes listening to her.  She said you should never cosign a loan like student loans.  She also said do not take out private students loans because you cannot consolidate them. I have for my daughters.   That was all that was available when they were applying for colleges.    ...

Is An Admin Assistant Course Worth It? Jun 30, 2016
I am considering taking an administrative assistant course. It costs almost $4000 and is supposed to touch upon office procedures, medical billing (not in depth), EMR, conflict resolution, among other useful subjects. This is cheaper than my community college and can be done at my own pace, within reason, from home. I need to get out of my almost min-wage MT job, but having been an MT for 25+ years, my non-MT skills are lacking. Completion of such a course seems to have multiple paths, in and ou ...

CBO Says Obamacare Will Cost 2 Million Jobs' Worth Of Dec 10, 2015
Yes, that's right.  Enough hours will be lost to equal 2 million jobs. The further we get with implementing Obamacare, the clearer it becomes that it's a total bust, with exchanges failing, costs going through the roof -  and now this from the CBO, not some right-wing nutjob.  It's unlikely that there are many conservatives who are surprised.  In fact, it's all going down exactly as we predicted.   Even so, it never fails to stun liberals when ...

US Economy Shrinks 0.1 Pct.,Jan 30, 2013
WASHINGTON (AP) — The U.S. economy unexpectedly shrank from October through December for the first time since 2009, hurt by the biggest cut in defense spending in 40 years, fewer exports and sluggish growth in company stockpiles. The drop occurred despite stronger consumer spending and business investment. The Commerce Department said Wednesday that the economy contracted at an annual rate of 0.1 percent in the fourth quarter. That was a sharp slowdown from the 3.1 percent growth rate in t ...
