Another great idea by the US government

Vampyr, we disagreed with you there because you were wrong

Anyway, as it said this is "part of a research effort 'to investigate the broadest possible set of new ways to prevent terrorist attacks.'" Glad some people in the Pentagon have an imagination. You take a topic such as investing, and try to create some ways it could be used to their advantage, and you end up with this. Stupid idea, has way too many political problems to ever actually go into effect, but it brings the idea to the table, and in some point in the future some ideas created by this project may be taken for a new program. But that leads me to the next problem.

While there could be ways to use the stock market to detect terrorist attacks, if our country needs to use the stock market for intelligence, George Tenet not only needs to be fired immediatly (he does anyway), but Clinton needs to make a public apology for allowing him to become DCI during his administration.
