If Bloomberg was elected there would never be a huge pop again.

We are actually quite dainty. We only take up the same airspace as a 50 seat rj.

I flew a polar route not too long ago on which there was not another airplane within about 3-400 miles of us for about 3 hours. Also, our nearest divert field never got much closer than about 550 miles away. Big sky, microscopic dainty widebody.

Whatever economics could have happened had the results been different does not matter if you don't have a job. The guy who would have allowed cabatage and foreign ownership and was very anti-labor was just shown the door.

Ha! It appears we have a mutual friend on facebook. :) You just outed yourself by posting the same thing on her post! :D


I disagree with your assessment, but I'm not going to get into it as that violates the terms of service here.

Buzz,

Sources?

Surveys performed by both fund managers and The Economist seem to agree that US GDP would be 1.5 percent higher due to higher anticipated spending under Obama. There is also the logic that poor people spend money, while wealthier people save money. Income redistribution has a stimulative effect on consumption. Tonight's speech was much more optimistic than the President's 08 election night presentation.

Then again, gold might be a great investment going forward. None the less, we'll have plenty to chuckle about ...

is a higher gdp due to government spending a good thing Bar?

and if your savings are lost due to inflation thanks to QE, how is that good?

I'll put it this way, i had three major expenditures that i was planning on doing late this year and next, I'm shelving them all for now.

Ezactly................ You think getting a loan now is hard...

The 717's were not coming based on price. It does not matter if they were free you had to have a place to fly the aircraft. You needed space in your overall system. Without that headroom the company would not have purchased the aircraft. The 717's are not growth aircraft for the Delta system. They are growth aircraft for the mainline. That is a key point you are missing.

I'm glad you're making it apolitical, because I'd hate to see "political".

Let me try my hand at "apolitical": no matter who won, we remain on track for recovery into next year, we still have huge issues in front of us, and the real question is how we split the tab for the horrible bender we've all been on.
