Steve’s Barking; Our ( great);grandparents economy coming soon

 My generation’s grandparents were in most cases poor if you are much younger then me that would be your great grandparents. They Squeaked by. Now this blogger seems to think that we’re headed in the direction of our grandparents, just getting by. Inflation is eating many of the salaries, also the savings of many of our retires.

 If you look at the dollar amount that the salaries of the workers and you compare them with the saluof the 30s and 40s you may shake your head after all today’s monetary salaries our huge compared to the old day, but if you compare it to the price of necessity the United States may be headed in a worse place then yesteryear

 Another hard to comprehend blog from Steve’s Barking.

Steve’s Barking; The weird price of oil 3/6/2026

  The price of oil keeps going up WTI over $90, a barrel, same is true for Brent. Now you might ask yourself why is that weird, after all there is a military action going on near  oil producing states in the Middle East. Well the problem is the world probably has too much oil being produced but a hardship of shipping much of it. Now if I remember my economics the price of crude should be going down because their is not much need to produce oil if much of it can’t be shipped or the cost of shipping is too high. 

 Yea the cost of gasoline should be going up, same is true of electricity that is run on oil for the product can’t be refined significantly, that basic economics, but the price of the raw material shouldn’t be going through the roof, as we who studied capitalistic economics should understand.

Steve’s Barking; Iran disaster now, future ( 🤔maybe) better for the region and the world

 

 There is no doubt in my mind that American, Israel military action in Iran is a disaster for the American people and the citizens of the Middle East. In the Middle East death destruction and it’s hard to do business. In the U.S. inflation and ( possibly) disruption in business and jobs.

 There was all indications that the present Iran government was a disruptive influence and war like ( even calling for a war against Israel and eventually against what it called infidel countries such as America) and a backer of terrorist.

Now if one thinks about it, those countries that are openly fighting Iran now was fighting Iran for years, only now it’s much more open and in the United States not quite legal would be battling Iran for years to come and perhaps ( very possible) Iran would become stronger militarily and America would be harder to go to war ( war act) and Israel not getting much stronger militarily.

 Now it’s possible that because of the military action that’s going on right now possibly bring a much more peaceful Middle East.

 ************************************************************************************

  Many a citizen of Iran was killed by military action, but it’s my understanding that the current government is killing its citizens at a greater amount then what this foreign military action against Iran is doing. Perhaps (?) this military action is good for the majority of the Iranian people is great for the citizens  of Iran.

*************************************************************************************

 It is this blogger’s understanding that America had destroyed democracy in Iran that eventually helped ( many decades) brought about this theocratic dictatorship in Iran. That is one of my fears of military intervention.

 

Steve’s Barking; Is China getting stronger because of the Iran US battle

 

The way this foolish blogger see it, the Inited States is using up its ammunition and China isn’t, If there is a confrontation in the near future the Peoples Republic of China just might have an advantage in ammunition?

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.
