NEW YORK (MarketWatch) -- Treasurys rose slightly on Wednesday, sending yields lower, after a report that showed a bigger-than-expected drop in private-sector jobs pressured equities and sent investors seeking the relative safety of government bonds.

Yields on the benchmark 10-year Treasury note /quotes/comstock/31*!ust10y (UST10Y 3.35, -0.01, -0.30%) , which move inversely to price, fell 2 basis points to 3.347%.

On Wall Street, stocks fell slightly after ADP said employment in the U.S. private sector fell by 298,000 in August.

The drop suggests nonfarm payrolls may sink by more than the 250,000 anticipated by economists ahead of the government's much-anticipated report due out Friday morning. See full story.

Wow. I'm so glad you have no clue about the future. I see something completely different. I see a complete rejection of the fascist status quo.

Don't get left behind.

I see a similar possible future path, but if that will happen, it will all pretty much fall apart into anarchy and then rise again as a mostly police state.
It will be called martial law. A much more civilized term than police state.
And the big money types will be running the police state.

Not for quite a while yet though.

I will be gone.
 
Message to the Illuminati.


Dear Illuminati,

Your heavy investments in media and education control have not worked to sufficiently brainwash people into voluntary compliance.

it's gonna have to be the hard way.

Blood in the streets, pickaxes in the eyes of bankers.

See you in hell.

Cheers,

A concerned voter

Luckily it won't get that bad.

This thing is turning around as we speak.

No. In reality.

You portray it as some sort of inevitability and that people deserve it.

You don't even understand your own thoughts, apparently.

Most Americans do deserve it. I believe in personal responsibility and payment or rewards for your actions.

Stupidity deserves no rewards.

Again, you blame the victims. It's like blaming victims in a con game.

I know the perpetrators are powerful corporatists fascists, but grow a set and stop being part of the problem.
