Steve’s Barking; The new new American conservatism according to crazy( me)

 It seems to me, this crazy observer of my country’s conservative movement that it keeps changing. 

 America’s original conservatives ( the Hamilton Federalist) were not anti tax people. They were also in favor of a large centralized government. 

 Now we come to the conservative movement of the 1930s. Anti military spending.

 Then came the 50s all of a sudden there for states rights. They were also in favor of  free market laissez-faire capitalism. Large capital spending on the military.

 Then along came Reaganism and the end of high taxes.

  Then along came Tea Party conservatism and the end of of free market low price income tax high tariff ( ending free market internationalism), attack on the constitution of the United States. Attack on laissez -faire capitalism ( especially when it comes to high tech).

 It appears from this crazy, that modern American conservatism has evolved  into a selfish form of anarchism. 

 

 

Steve’s Barking; American economy save by COVID 19? ( wtf)

 American (USA) in January to March of 2020 (as I recall) had an acute labor shortage. To go along with this labor shortage was the prospect that 1/4 to 1/3 of all businesses in America were under water. In other words that would have had a hard time paying their bills. This despite extremely low interest rates.  Now along comes this deadly disease COVID 19 and the Federal Reserves has an excuse to buy up paper there for letting congress help bale out many of the firms that surely would no longer been in existence come the beginning of this year. Of cause this bale out isn’t called a bale out but rather a stimulus. Without this a-hum stimulus putting money in consumers pockets ( It’s great to have money in your pocket we’re you don’t have expenses traveling to and from work, or buying lunch out). 

 It seems that a lot expenses stood still, government helping even with mortgages and rent paying. Now that the pandemic seems to to be slowing down and the consumer is poised to spend like a drunken sailor in the eyes of this crazy writer it appears that the pandemic may have helped the economy.(?)

* It appears that there still maybe a labor shortage. But at least the businesses didn’t go bankrupt.

Steve’s barking; United States Labor Shortage

 Oh s*t there a labor shortage in the United States! Of Cause the reason there is a labor shortage in the United State is because the government is giving out too much money in the form of unemployment insurance. 

 Of cause there was a huge labor shortage in January 2020 when the government wasn’t giving out too much money to the unemployed, go figure.

Steve’s Barking; Israel, Palestine non peace

 In my life time  and probably in next several generations there will be no peace in the land from Gaza to the West Bank. It takes at least 2 sides to make a peace deal. In the case of this land in the Middle East it takes more then 2 sides, it takes four sides to make peace. The majority of the three of the sides don’t want to live with Jews and their solution appears to be that the Jews commit suicide or at least leave the land.

 There is a large minority of Jews who feel the same way about the Arabs. 

  There is a fallacy in some circles that by punishing Israel.  To make matters brief by denying weapons and ammunition the Israelis would have to fight harder and civilians be dammed.

 * There is no solution unless all sides need each other.

 * There is a crisis between, secular, Sunni, and Shia  Muslims  and there leadership. 

 

 

Steve’s Barking; Texas and Fla are happy with population growth! Why!

 Florida and Texas are happy with population growth especially people from the north east and California. The question is why? Me being in New York is very happy when people leave my city. I think that there are too many people here. We could lose maybe one or two million people even if some of those people are extremely rich. Too many people can make navigating the city uncomfortable. Too many people can stretch the resources of the city. 

 Now getting back to Florida and Texas, because there is no income tax in those two states the addition of new immigrants from other states doesn’t add to the tax coffers and stretches the resources of those two states. Plus the fact the the cost of homes goes up. So too does property taxes, but not enough to be offset the stress on the state budgets that the new comers impose. 

 It appears to this amateur economists that the increase of population from outsiders could be a detriment to these states rather then a blessing.

* Note the Governors of these two states want to reduce federal government spending. If one believes them then the federal help with their states budget would be negated. 

Steve’s Barking; America’s greatest game shows!

 America greatest game shows are happening now!

 The game shows are happening on all the cable news channels!

 The name of the game show(s) is called gotch ya!

  I understand that each of these news station have opinionated jerks and each one of them tells what ya what another. opinionated jerk on the other stations screwed up and even lied about🙀. This has been going for years now. Unfortunately these cross over “games” are actually believed by by some of the multitude who watch these programs🤵🏻‍♂️👨🏿‍⚖️🤴🏽👨‍✈️🎅🏽🧙🏽‍♀️🧛‍♀️. Of cause these multitudes don’t care that the opinions by these 🪱 come from sources stuck in their a**es and come out by laxatives.

Steve’s Barking; Then along came India and Brazil

 I was wrong. I had made the presumption that COVID-19 was mostly a cold weather disease.

 After all there were  much fewer cases in the summer then the winter. Central Africa and Central Latin America seemed to have much fewer cases. India, Pakistan and Bangladesh also had much fewer cases.

Then something strange happened, Brazil and India got more cases than anyone could have imagined.

 Now this could be because of humid and winless weather. Crowding of housing with little ventilation perhaps, or the most frightening scenario variation and the virus that travels and doesn’t lose strength even in the outdoors with high ventilation, vitamin D having little effect on preventing severe cases of this virus.
