State of the Union

In fairness - if I read the chart right - it looks like the graph takes in about 2/3 of 2014, but isn't current to today's date. What were gas prices like in Aug/Sept compared to Jan 2009? I imagine if the graph were updated to today's gas prices, there would be a significant drop below 2009.

Check this site - look at the 5 year version of the chart. It looks similar to Ted's, right up until it falls off the cliff.

If I read the chart right it looks like West Virginia.

Yes, both are up.

No way.

Main thing I picked up while watching 20-30 minutes of the show last night, it is 2015. No need for a calendar this year.

is doing away with carried interest part of President Obama's tax program. Amazing to me he busts Romney and others chops on this and yet I don't think it is in his proposal. Why, these folks give big money to both dems and repubs.

Instead he goes after risk capital. Since most liberal dems think treasury bonds are a great investment, I do understand how they are oblivious to taking risk with ones capital. Of course they are great at taking risk and spending someone else's capital.

Yes, treasury bonds must be a great investment given your social security trust is invested in t-bonds. Don't worry, the government is good for it... maybe even until 2033. The rest of us are maybe screwed.
