This article is absurd.

They pimp dividend paying stocks and quote a 35% cumulative yield over the past 10 years for Russell 3000 value index. Wow! That's an awesome yield.

The bond market is going to crater, and somehow stocks, and economic growth will not be affected.

Looks like the tax rate for dividends is going up to 40% from 15%. Yeah, that's great for dividend stocks, right?

While I agree productivity is critical to long-term health of a nation, we've been relying on consumer demand for so long. Where does that leave us now?

Issues where I do concur:
1) bond yields are pathetic for the risk
2) stocks are probably a better place to be

That said, if the bond bubble bursts, it's taking these idiots and their dividend stocks for a ride.
