Mad Money Cramer: investors should buy stock in companies that pollute
Edited on Thu Apr-23-09 06:28 AM by wordpix
Last night on his "green" show, Cramer ranted at Ohio State U. that people should not invest in stocks that do good, but instead invest in companies that pollute as long as that makes you money.

That's right, Cramer, :sarcasm: let the American public pay to clean up the pollution of corporate greedmongers, instead of the greedy bastards being made to clean up their own messes as part of their business costs.

Cramer should be taken to task for this. :grr:

1. Cramer should be a towel boy in a brothel
rather than a pundit, IMO.

2. In the olden days, Cramer would have been comitted for poor mental hygeine
Now, they just ring a bell every four hours and he takes his Brain Meds to remain relatively functional and non violent for a few hours.

How could such a repulsive turd be on TV? What ever happened to Handsome intelligent men? All we get is Brain Dead Dad.

3. Some years back my daughter was investing
some money that she had gotten from her grandfather. She wanted to invest it in socially responsible companies. I was proud of her.

The stock broker - I don't remember what co. - kept trying to convince her to invest her money in tobacco, and oil, etc. and use some of the proceeds for a park or something.
:grr:

4. that's what Cramer advised, too - invest in polluting stocks & with your profits, contribute to a
good cause.

Like these polluting companies even HAVE profits to share with shareholders! :crazy:
