This CNBC video is so interesting. They did 2 surveys, one general and one comprising people with million(s) in investable assets. Opinions on certain topics are relatively in line between those 2 groups, but when you split between political affiliation (1:06 mark), there is a definite difference of opinion on why people are wealthy.

Kind of puts dependency and entitlement on its head.

I was talking to my wife over the weekend about the recovery efforts and the great job first responders are doing. I hear plenty of grumbling from people about how union workers don't deserve what they get. My question is, who else would go into situations like this and risk their lives without a thought? Hopefully people are reminded about the great sacrifices public employee union workers make. And then this:

Well, what do you know, its not true:
Huntsville, Joe Wheeler utilities deny claims of union discrimination during Sandy response

Let's give it up for our public sector workers coming through when we need them the most.

What would you rather have, a horrible economy and low gas prices or a strong economy and higher gas prices? I prefer the latter. Do I blame the president for high gas prices? Yes, because the economy has recovered.

But lets put things into perspective:
1. Gas prices were higher last Spring and even higher in the Summer of 2008.
2. Gas prices are expected to decline from current levels.

Here is a table of Gasoline futures prices (Prior Settle Column). Prices peak in April at $3.31 (the current contract). As you go out further in 2012, prices drop below $3.

Spread the word, it looks like this is as bad as its going to get heading into the election.

Back in July, I was disillusioned when Barack Obama didn't lead the democratic caucus in a filibuster of any new FISA bill that included telecom immunity.

Haven't seen anything that gets the message across that conservatives can't and progressives can
