Everyone's stock price is not down. Another false statement. The majority are down though, as they should be. I am not defending bailouts, I'm saying you shoul

I am not defending bailouts, I'm saying you should get your facts straight.
- celticninja 6y agoOK, not everyones individually, but look at all the major stock exchanges and their value is down. This is a good indicator that the vast majority, and therefore it means that most investors are affected similarly. Are pension funds down? Yes. Are most retail investors down? Yes. Anyone who is up is not up enough to make a difference to the market in general. So dont be disingenous, you know what i meant by 'everyone' in this instance.
- celticninja 6y agoit does seem like you choose to pick arguments when people generalise, opting to show how there are examples that go against their point. Even though they may be unique examples that are the opposite to what someone claims but are unrepresentative of reality. This doesn't add to the discussion, in fact it detracts because it devolves into an unnecessary flamewar. HN is not reddit so please dont try and make it like that. I hope you can see how you were being disingenous, regardless it makes me not want to continue the discussion anymore as I dont feel you are engaging honestly and are just trying to score points.
