Dearly beloved, here it is the New Year and has anything changed? How about the Stock Market? The liberal press was quick to state the Stock Market had its worse year (Really?) The last day of Obama in office, the Stock Market never made it to 19,000 in eight years, but went to over 26,000 in just two years with President Trump. OK, now the Democrats are in charge of the House of Representatives but not the Senate, so what has changed there? It was not the worse year but the worse two months since the mid-term elections. The DOW on the market dropped about 4,000 points because of something you cannot see or put your finger on, and that is confidence. The Democratic Party is lacking in confidence and promoting Socialism and Higher Taxes does not help, but apparently enough young voters loved the idea to put them back in power.
OK how much is a gallon of gas in January 2019? How about Missouri at $1.85, Miami at $2.17, Phoenix at $2.47 Manhattan at $2.63, Alaska at $3.07, Seattle at $3.11 and LA a whopping $3.36. Would you believe “My Old Kentucky Home”, Derby City (Louisville) at $1.77. So why the big difference? Dearly beloved, it is nothing but POLITICS. Put on your thing caps, what would all these current prices be if Queen Hillary would have won the big one, and don’t forget she promised to put Coal miners out of work! (Words have consequences.)
Now the new Congress and some of the new women in it, would our Founding Fathers be impressed? These last two years has been the most unique times in American politics for getting things done and the next two could may well be a protracted stalemate because of more politics. Maxine Walters will be a major player in the banking industry, so what can “WE THE PEOPLE” expect? Will she do her job and make a real effort to promote good government or will she ever be known as, (the Aunt Ester of the 116th Congress?)
