Steve’s Barking; Mid East, water- no where to be found (except Israel)

 One might ask oneself, “Hey, how come almost all the countries to my knowledge have an acute water shortage except Israel?”

 Well, Israel had a water shortage also, but they let their scientists have their way, and they learned to desalt the sea. 

 Of course, the Muslim countries in that region could do the same thing. If they don’t want to give Israelis anything, they could always steal the formula for desalination. Of course, the prejudices of the Muslims in that region prevent the betterment of their people.

Steve’s Barking; America is 250, How much longer?

  The United States is celebrating its 250th anniversary even though it wasn’t a country until 1787 (the Constitution of the U.S. was written). 

 One can make the argument that the U.S. wasn’t a country until April 30th, 1789 ( George Washington took the oath of office as president).

 Anyhow, getting back to what my question is, how much longer will the U.S. be a nation?

 Will it be a nation until the end of time (climate change killing us all.  Asteroids colliding with earth.. Total war killing us all)?

 Will there be a civil war like no other, splitting the country up? 

 Will other countries so distrust the U.S. that we would not be vibrant anymore?

Steve’s Barking; Democratic Party…..Youth be served

  In the Democratic Primaries, it appears that we old dogs aren’t coming out to vote. We are the problematic voters who vote on foolish things, such as inflation and whether our Social Security will be reduced.  Now it appears to my insane brain that the youth  appear to be extremely idealistic, not very pragmatic, and vote on their ideals.

 I question whether the idealistic youth’s idealism nullifies the pragmatic voter in the general elections or whether the Republican attack on idealism wins.

 Are these young Democratic voters from middle and upper middle-income families and the poor not voters like us older Democratic voters?

Steve’s Barking Question of the day no taxes or no water

 It seems to me the stupid blogger that there are more people running to no-tax states like Texas, and these states are running out of water.

 It seems to me this stupid blogger that people are running away from states that have more than enough water like New York but are taxing their people to death.

 Is our choice death by lack of money or the death of lack of drinkable water?

Steve’s barking; Will we all starve to death

 Crazy me following YouTube so-called doctors, talking about what not to eat. The problem is it depends on the doctor. Each of these men and women  claims that they and their colleagues are telling us non-medical personnel that pasta is bad for you. It shortens your lifespan, shortens your memory. You have to be careful of what kind of fruit you eat. This one contains too much sugar, that one messes with your kidneys or your heart. Red meat shortens your lifespan.(Some people say it lengthens your lifespan. Go figure.) Several doctors(?) on the internet say don’t eat bread.(Some say white, some say whole wheat, others say rye, while others say don’t eat bread at all.)

 Ah, but it’s safe to eat fish as long as it isn’t farmed-raised, because who knows what the farmers feed their fish? Oh, you shouldn’t eat shellfish because they live in the bottom of the sea, where all the garbage goes. So it must be safe to eat fish with scales that swim freely, except they eat plastic that is thrown into the sea and that will poison your brain.

 Well, it seems that at least we can eat vegetables. Oh, wait a minute, don’t farmers put pesticides on them? Surely that will poison you. What about those who claim they don’t put pesticides on their vegetables? Can  you really trust big industrial farms? And who in the world can afford vegetables from local farmers who don’t use pesticides?

 In conclusion, according to YouTube doctors, you can’t eat anything, therefore you have to starve to death.

Steve’s Barking; Election money and the law of diminishing returns

 Ah it’s election time again in the United States. It means that a fantastic amount of money is being spent on the elections. It means that outside influences are giving as much as the laws allow and then some. Some outside influences don’t give money directly to candidates. Outside influencers buy adds directly .Mostly against a candidate in a fear tactic.

 Now in my judgment when one sees so many adds and direct mailing one gets numb by them and a lot of times it actually has a negative effect. Either by non voting or turn off on the candidate that has inundated the the potential voters.

 Some elections you see million and millions of dollars being spent on several candidates, as if that will get the voters to the polls..

 One has to wonder why so few potential voters stay away from voting when so much money is spent.

 Another thing that bewilders me is when one candidate complains about how much money their opponent has and at the end of the day they spend a third more then their opponent.

 I’ve also noticed that some candidates spend two or three times their opponent and don’t get very many votes. What’s with that?

Steve’s Barking; Tesla and Space moving in opposite directions ( 6/22)

 I maybe be delusional but the past several stock market and after hour sessions it seems to me that when Tesla moves up Space X moves down. When Space X moves up Tesla moves down. 

 Maybe this blogger is delusional. Maybe those buying one of Musk’s companies is selling the other one and visa versa. (Fix).
