JJC:   Look, it would be easy for me to just come out and tell you how much money everyone lost... how bad the first half is... Uh, that's history.

Let's talk 2nd half...

Right now, we need stocks that aren't economically-sensitive, because the economically-sensitive ones are getting killed... because our awful economy is pulling down everything except for the one place that I hoped you were investing in, if you watch this show... our friends in oil and gas... and so, now, our nation turns its lonely eyes to Congress... for what I think is the next big boondoggle... medicare spending.

Because this bill is huge... We're expected to spend $454 billion on medicare this year. We spent $374 billion on it in 2006. This is a perfect example of how you can try to make money off our government that is of, by and for the corporation!

Oh, you thought medicare was about taking care of the elderly?... Please... no, no, no, my friends... It's about big giveaways for the corporations that are licensed to administer medicare...

More comments will continue here...

The Bottom Line!:      Medicare is a huge, non-economically-sensitive giveaway to a lot of companies.  You're probably sick and tired of your tax dollars being given to a couple of huge corporations.  Now you can get your own rebate from the Feds.  You just have to know which ones are poised to benefit from the latest Medicare bill... and, for that, you've got to stick with Cramer...
