Steve’s Barking; Newer and cheaper

I must be missing something when it comes to imports. Don’t counties that have a large surplus with the United States pay their workers a lot less then we would pay our workers?
Am I missing something, don’t those countries that have a large trade surplus with the United States  have newer factories?
I guess those who believe that ending tariffs would even the playing field are living in a fools paradise.

Steve’s Barking; No immigration, No future

 We of the Western World what no immigrants.
 They’re messy, smelly, gangsters, who are terrorist, rapist.
 Kind like our  ancestors.
 Of cause we of the old industrialized world who are running short of babies to grow up to be workers.
Look at the United States we have for the first time in the the history of the world more jobs then people to take them. Oh of cause they require special skills like driving a truck and fixing cars.
Of cause futurist might tell you that’s all right because those jobs in the near future will be done by robots or at least in the case of driving a truck by self driving vehicles.
Of cause those futurist can’t tell anybody how us old farts will pay for robotic nursing, or even if we are healthy as one can be and doesn’t need nursing but still needs food. If we have no workers that normally done by immigrants paying into our pensions and in the United States Social Security, our future looks dim.

Steve’s Barking; Did N Korea shoot it’s load?

Does N Korea have anymore A Bombs? Does N Korea have the material and or money to build another A bomb? Does N Korea several rockets that can reach the United States? Does N Korea have the material and or the money to buy the materials to build the rockets to reach the United States?

Steve’s Barking;Will the U.S. turn into the next Venezuela?

I know that some of you silly gooses out there will only laugh at that statement, after all Venezuela is a communist country and the good old U.S. OF A is a capitalist country. The question is does the economic system ruin a country or does the cult leadership of a country lead to the demise. Think of it this way Hugo Chavez was an extreme populist when he took over hiS country an if my memory serves me correct Venezuela economy expanded because of oil. The United States is being ruled by a cult like leader, the economy is going great guns, but will the corrupt and cult like President lead us down the same path? Will the raising of the price of goods due to tariffs slow and hinder the economy of the U.S.? Will the rising of prices on goods(especially farm goods) from the U.S. force counties like China and Mexico get their farm products from countries like Argentina and Brazil? Will the administration do something foolish like limit foreign ownership in American companies, therefore hurting foreign investment in America? Will in two years Americans see much better investment opportunities in foreign countries hindering America and American companies from getting all the capital it needs? We in the United States have this false pride that Venezuela type of economic disaster couldn’t happen here, I’m not so sure.

Steve’s Barking; Living in an Orwellian world

As I get older I the labels that we give ourselves and we give those who have different views from us have opposite meanings to what they are. How can someone call themselves liberal and be intolerant? How can someone call themselves conservative and try to undo existing laws and 80 years? How can a person be part of something called the freedom caucus and take away rights to vote and a woman’s right to chose? How do we have a heritage foundation with people who don’t know their own history? How can there be a group that calls themselves Federalist and be against a big centralized government? I was a party not long ago when a young lady came up to me and said she was from the Working Family Party, she then went out to complain about what she called DINOs ( Democrats In Name Only).If your not a Democrat what makes you think you can complain about what people call themselve?

Steve’s Barking; Pardon me boysI

Pardon me boys is that the Chattanooga choo-choo ( song before my time). The President of these United States has minions who claim that he can pardon himself. Well may not know much about the law but any reasonable person would assume that a person must be convicted of a crime before that person could be pardoned. Yea I’m know , Ford said he would pardon Nixon, but I don’t recall him actually doing so. So one can assume that the Pres would be removed from office before he is tried in a court of law, therefore under reasonable assumption he cannot pardon himself. * It appears that President Donald Trump is as patriotic as Benedict Arnold.

Steve’s Barking; Heading into the new dark ages

Looks like the world, and especially America what’s to head into a new dark age. We’re heading out into tribalistic sociaties, everyone is nationalistic (tribal). In the United States too many of us scoff at science and abuse parts of that we use every day (I’ll let your imagination try to answer what I’m writing about). My beloved New York City is being turned into a Caracas by the mayor and Caracas has been turned to a town of the dark ages.
