So why is Procter and Gamble hanging in there?

Oh yeah, remember all that devil shit stuff about them a few years back. I smell sulfur.

1. We're gonna need lots of disinfectant

to clean up after the noxious Tee Party

2. Do vinegar and sulfur mix?

3. Their products sell

Even when you can't afford to buy anything else, you still have to buy soap.

4. I enjoyed the final phase of that trial. The P&G lawyer asked for a large sum in damages.

He used the expression "ridiculous lies" to describe the defendant's claims.

The company owns an extremely diverse set of brands. They could survive on DuraCell alone. Or Pampers.

5. Tepper (Appaloosa) reportedly dumped his shit in all financial institutions.

6. It makes money

Last week I cashed out (stockwise). My theory is to then buy solid dividend producers (P & G, McDonalds) or a high yield fund. I think bad times are coming but companies like P &G always make money. People need soap, no?

If I bet wrong, at least the dividends will be there.

I am not alone in this thinking.

Plus people gotta get rid of US debt (trustholders and the like). P & G still has AAA.

on edit: Do not listen to me about how to make money in the stock market. Beyond the fundamentals (diversify, dollar cost averaging) everyone is either ignorant or a fraud if they can tell you how to predict the stock market.

7. Their products are consumables. People use up their

supply and then buy more.

8. They are in League with the Devil - according to the Fundies

it's that moon and stars thingy

:D
