Is It in My Head?

CNBC, “Thomson Reuters Gives Elite Traders Early Advantage.”

Between this and the Bloomberg snooping scandal a little while back, you can’t help but wonder: how can we trust a shred of business journalism these guys do anymore?

Ever since the jerk that does that Mad Money show was filmed telling some other journalist douche about how to make money with his reporting I stopped believing a single word that “business journalists” say.

The game is rigged against us folks, the only way to win the game, is to stop playing the game.

Which leave little more content than callous demagogues like Rick Santelli generating heat, not light:

Even if you had a job that paid you enough to save for retirement you can't count on it being there. That's because the solipsistic, sociopathic jackals in that Santelli is doing this angry-ape-in-a-suit routine for have paid off elected Federal officials to get rid of the laws that make your nest egg secure.

If you're the kind of person who doesn't have more money than you know what to do with in one life time stashed away in Lichtenstein or Singapore and you don't believe that governmental representation is a pay-for-play proposition, you're going to have to make it a practice to inconvenience yourself to fix that problem.
