Investing in America Sucks Ass

A report out today shows that a large poll of analysts by LastCall/Thompson have agreed unanimously that "America Sucks Ass" for investing.
While all analysts indicated they love the American Constitution, the National Anthem, the Pledge of Allegiance and all the "nice" Kennedy's, this love did not extend to their own stock market or dollar.
Some analysts disputed the report, asking whether or not the term "sucks ass" was used as a leader to skew the results in favour of the desired outcome.
"Look," said LastCall CEO Humphrey Chumples, "we just asked an open question, 'Describe the U.S. Stock Markets in two words,' and it just so happened that all the analysts chose the words 'sucks ass' to describe the American Stock market."
"If it makes you feel any better, when we asked about the dollar, it was only about 85% of people who responded this way."
LastCall/Thompson is a relatively new financial analysis firm on Wall Street.
