The thing about the stock market that people don’t recognize is that this crash is only ‘real’ to older people. Older people have investments. Obama’s most faithful core constituency has very little invested in the market. Young people don’t have any substantial money invested, or they have plenty of time for their investments to come back so they don’t worry about it. The really dumb ones are probably glad that someone is finally sticking it to the ‘rich’. Obama of course encourages that kind of thinking.
