Talk about Your Snoozer

The house on Saturday night approved the first leg of a historic plan by the government takeover of health care. The document came in at almost 2000 pages, maybe the biggest of all-time. That is more pages than War and Peace or the Bible. It is hard to imagine that the career politicians on the hill understand the ramifications of these changes, let alone even read it. The markets did not disapprove though, as the Dow rallied up by 200 points and stocks across the board rejoiced the ever falling dollar. This rally may have some legs, so hop on board. 2000 pages, 2000 copies, equal 4,000,000 pages of green government.
