Marko's statement is bang on - the performance of the stock is all that matters to many (most?) of us. I suspect that we will continue to get just what we deserve.
Well, let me try to be clear.
As my grandfather taught me, "Money is money. If you want to feel good, join a church, but feeling good won't help you put food on the table."
Earlier in this thread I mentioned that I long ago realized that I really can't make a difference except to those closest to me.
Big Tobacco/Oil/Pharma doesn't care whether I do or do not own their stock; I'm too small. Why on earth would I short-change my ability to provide for my family both now and after I'm gone over ideals?
If oil is going to give me the biggest payout, sign me up.
I read a story somewhere about a guy who spent so much of his time and money helping the needy that he eventually became broke and needy himself. What a @#$^@#@& nincompoop.
