Investors Lean Right...Duh

I have always thought that when people put their money where their mouth is they will make a well informed and rational decision more often than not. This is why Trade Sports is so accurate in its sports, politics and other event predictions. Their Election 2004 predictions were one of the best.

I have long believed that a well informed decision on most topics will result in a Right decision. Most conservative positions require a well-reasoned thought process and one's own finances will help to ensure that.

So, it is no surprise to me when I hear that most investors are conservative (at least fiscally) in ideology. This story reports a Zogby poll confirming that investors are more conservative.

No wonder the liberals are anti-investor, anti-Wall Street and anti-Social Security reform. They will lose their power base if we all became investors in any manner relating to our retirement.
