b'The Government is Back in Business
\\nThe government is officially re-opened!\\xa0 Apparently, the government shut down, maybe it was on Friday.\\xa0 Earlier today Congress voted to re-open it! The good news that the government is back in business sent the stock market to record highs.\\xa0 The Dow, the NASDAQ, the S&P all rallied on the good news.
\\nWhen the Government Shuts Down, it gets Bigger
\\nOf course, the good news was the government shutdown.\\xa0 Except, it\'s not really shut down.\\xa0 If they actually shut the government down, that would be great news. The bad news is that it\'s not shut down.\\xa0 It\'s open for business.\\xa0 If they really shut down government, people would like it.\\xa0 At least a lot of people. The problem is, in the past, when the government shuts down, normally government gets bigger during the shutdown.
\\nThe Problem is not Government Shutdown; It is Government Regulations
\\nLet\'s say they close a National park. They have more government workers making sure nobody uses the National park because it\'s closed than they had when the park was open. So the whole thing is a farce. I remember reading an article one year, during the government shutdown, that there were businesses that needed permits, but the permit office was closed, so they couldn\'t get the permits they needed.\\xa0 The media covered the situation as, "See how bad it is when government is shut down, when people can\'t get their permits." Well, if government is shut down, you shouldn\'t need the permit.\\xa0 If government shut down, you can do what you want.\\xa0 You don\'t need a government permit. The problem was not the government shutdown, it was the government regulations.
\\nAll Federal Taxes Don\'t Count during the Shutdown
\\nLet\'s say during government shutdown, "No one has to pay any taxes."\\xa0 All Federal taxed don\'t count during the shutdown.\\xa0 How many people would be anxious for the government to be open? So, a real government shutdown, where all taxes and regulations are suspended during the time of the shutdown would be great.
\\nGovernment Business is Destructive Because Government Means Power
\\nGovernment is no longer shut down; it is open for business and that means it is destructive business because government is power.\\xa0 I thought it was typical or funny - the minute the news came out that they had the votes to open the government, the dollar rallied and gold sold off.\\xa0 They weren\'t big moves. The way the lemmings react to this news is that they thought that the dollar was falling because of the government shutdown.\\xa0 The dollar going down had nothing to do with the government shutdown.\\n\\nOur Sponsors:\\n* Check out Rosetta Stone and use my code TODAY for a great deal: https://www.rosettastone.com/ \\n\\nPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy'
