The market scares me. In a real world, it should not be that high with the economy the way it is..

Wow. I just looked up the $100 trillion note on Ebay. They're going for a lot more than I paid for mine. I got 10 for $30. Now they're going for $15 to $24 each!

Maybe you should stop confusing "the market" with those government folk who pretend to manipulate monetary policy and finely tune employment and "husband" the economy? Some of us work to serve the consumer while others just reach out and use their government clout to mess with it for anusement. There really is a difference!

Perhaps you can help us understand how wondering about an inflated stock market that is without solid economic underpinning is living in an "unreal right wing bubble."

I've done well this year in the stock market. my rite-aid stock is up 220% You'd have to define "well" better than that. A good chunk of "well" is tied to the devaluation of the dollar. You may have more dollars in your plan, but can they really buy more things? Another part of "well" is tied to reality. Are economic bubbles sustainable? Recent history suggests "no."

I'm up 15% overall for the year versus letting your money rot in the bank at .05%.

The government tells us that inflation is low. I'd bet that the economic climate is discouraging producers from raising prices. But as their expenses climb and they decide they want a nicer house, they want more profit. So they have decreased portions and/or quality. Look at most stores, and think about how much and how nice were the items your dollar used to buy. Then think about what it buys now. Wash clothes from Target are thinner and less soft now than the batch I bought a few years ago. Orange juice cartons are smaller. Tuna cans are smaller. The list is extensive.

The problem here is that most people like the bubble on the inflation side. People with McMansions probably loved using the ever increasing values of their homes as an ATM for Caribbean vacations. Then the bubble pops, their mortgages are underwater, and they're stuck and decidedly not happy.
