Steve’s Barking ; Why are the Democratic Socialists picking on me?

Tax the rich, that is what Bernard Sanders said the other day. My understanding is that there are many a person in the United States who feel the same way. 

 Now I’m saying that really an attack on me, some one who’s net worth is less then $100,000 dollars. Some one who’s net worth half of that $100,000. 

 Some one who’s income is less then $100,000. So no I would not be taxed. Well if I would not be taxed how in the world am I proclaiming that the Democratic Socialist are picking on me?

 Wellll I’m a retire with two pension and Social Security, Social Security will in all probability will be solvent but will pay me less then 80% that it pays me now. I:’m not saying that the Dem Socialist are attacking it, but I am saying that by insisting that the super rich are not very liquid but they have their wealth in assets, that they would in all probability sell some lessening the value of said assets. Now my pensions are put into these assets. The value of these assets would go down, thus the value of my pension would decrease. If this would to happen one can only hope and pray that the pensions, mine and others aren’t insolvent.

Those who have their retirement tired to assets such as the stock market, possibly be worse off.

Steve’s Barking; Israel is attacking Iran on Purim

 Oh the irony of it all, Israel is attacking Iran on Purim, the holiday that celebrates the stoping of the massacre of Jews in Persia now called Iran.

Steve’s barking; There’s a religious war going on in the middle East

 

There’s a religious war going on in the Middle East. No it’s not Jew against Muslim though that’s what a lot of ( no a huge majority might tell you). Actually it’s has mostly been who’s the better Muslim the shite or the Sunni ( don’t forget that several decades ago Iranians (shite) tried to take over Arabia ( more specifically Mecca) . Don’t forget al-Qaeda, and  Isis. Now one of all these group’s tenants is there will be no Muslim state in the Middle East or even perhaps the whole world and their form of Islam is the one to bring this about. They by all means will bring this about. 

 Now this blogger may not be totally understood after all Iran was attacked by the United States and Israel ( a non religious Jewish state) but in this bloggers mind these two countries had the tased agreement or even the push to war from the other Muslim and perhaps the non stricter Muslim states in the area, especially now with all the revolutionary fervor that was happening in Iran that seemed to be losing steam.

Make Iran a non Arab state weaker as to be less of  threat.

Steve’s Barking; Patel in locker room of American Hockey team, much ado about nothing

 

 There are too many critics of FBI director Patel being in the locker room of American hockey after the gold medal win over Canada. This blogger says so what. Is it kind of jealousy? Is it what ever a person from this administration does is wrong? Would ninety percent of those critics do the same thing if they had the chance? The team let him in the locker room as far as I can tell. To this blogger there is nothing wrong with that. 

 Stop ragging on zero sense.

Steve’s Barking; Last night 2/24/26 I saw a fantasy

 

Last night 2/24/26 I saw a fantasy on the television. On Netflix they had Conan the destroyer.

What do you think I meant, the president’s state of the union?

Steve’s Barking; How do I know …inflation and recession

 How do I know if this inflation. I know if there’s inflation I’m going to the grocery store and if the prices have gone up, I kind of suspect that this inflation. If I want to buy a car that three years ago cost $30,000 and the new model this year cost $50,000. I kind of know that there’s an inflation.

How do I know if there’s a recession. I know there’s a recession if several of my neighbors have been laid off. I know there’s a recession if some of my neighbors children who just got out of high school and college are having a hard time finding jobs.

I don’t count on government statistics because a lot of of them are screwed to what the politicians and the bureaucrats want.

Steve’s Barking; 3 Weeks military training?

  

I keep reading that the soldiers in the Russian Army have only 3 weeks of military training. If that is true a reasonable person can understand why Russia is doing so badly in their war with Ukraine. Take it from a soldier in the sixties 8 weeks basic training and 8 to 10 weeks individual training. Can do me reasonably compare Russian soldiers to American soldiers.
