Posted By: Russell Date: 6/10/08 11:35a.m. Report: outside forum guidelines In Response To: Seeking Clarity (Arlyn Stewart) Including some people who are just middle-class retirees. That's a quite traditional investment approach for retirement. I doubt we'll see a windfall profits tax enough to much affect that. And it's easy enough to roll out of oil and into other high-dividend stocks. But don't diss dividends.
