Nobody said it had any meaning other than what you mentioned. You specifically discussed the 18000 mark reached on Wall St. and the realtionship with the growth in the economy, which by the way I have directly replied to.
Along the way, a few pointed out that companies were makin the money and not sharing it, then someone brought up the amount of pay of CEOs versus the worker, etc. I tried to return to the nature of the thread in post 24, but most seem to want to discuss the disparity in pay between the top and the bottom.
Speaking for myself, I never tried to make any political points and mentioned a few times about the positive aspect of this news. Others felt it more important to come from the aspect of CEOs versus workers.
By the way, as a regular religious watcher of CNBC among others, I welcome any conversations on the economy. This subject you brought up has been discussed quite a bit the last few weeks...it mostly is met with hopeful comments. HOWEVER, those who made it about the wage or salary difference would be disappointed if they actually reviewed the direction of the country in the last few years. There are a number of great analysis of this but they come off very p........ and thus I have not quoted them nor cited them.
I just tried to respond to the posts as they were made but again, I did respond DIRECTLY to what you said.
