Thanks Dex, at least we agree on half. And I'm forever thankful for your explanation of the stock market; I always wondered about that thing.
So, you're not refuting my premise - that staying invested in the market helps the common good - but giving a fictional example of an evil doer doing as I propose. Kind of like, if a mass murderer stops and gives CPR to a heart attack victim enroute to slaying another one of his victims, is he a good guy or a bad guy? All very interesting, but oh so irrelevant.
I’m pretty new to this forum, but I’m guessing that no one here would doubt your ability to ask questions. Answering questions, though, maybe not so much?
So, here's my question Dex: How do you define patriotism?
