I do not dimiss people because they have a political point of view on economics different from mine

How they perceive policies that works best for the greater good economically.. we can debate.. from Bernie to Ryan and all the people and policies who fall between.. We can come together and find commonality... it is possible.

But if they come at politics from a fear of the other.. pure and simple hate of someone that is different ...there is no place to find to find a greater good from hate.

Being an economics major (minor and macro economics), I found that simply relying on numbers to forecast economic trends is somewhat impossible, as many of us find out on a daily basis...I do find that mob rule seems to drive economics somewhat...so in effect, mob psychology seems to be the best way to predict market outcomes...irrational I know, but seems to be the best predictor of trends...
