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).

Steve’s Barking; Question of the day.. Does the U.S. demand instant gratification in the battle with Iran

 Oh damn… What does this crazy blogger mean does the United States demand instant gratification with Iran?
 I’ll try to explain, though it will be hard to understand…..
 The United States along with most of the world is hurting economically because of the easy way the Iranians are making it very difficult for oil tankers to go through the Strait of Hormuz. The price of oil and its products are extremely expensive. Now it may be said that this is bringing hardship on the peoples of the world, especially US citizens. Ah, this is good for those who hold power, especially in the United States.
 So it seems that those in power are kind of panicking and to this goofy blogger they are giving 300 billion dollars and stopping any hostile action against Iran. The United States President is telling its partner in this adventure that it must not protect its citizens by attacking the hostile forces that are in Lebanon because the Iranians will not cease hostilities in the Strait of Hormuz, thus keeping the flow of oil coming to the rest of the world. 
 If what this crazy man has read, the oil producers of that region are building pipelines from their oil fields to other ports thus leaving Iran unable to hurt the supply of oil to the world in about six months. The United States doesn’t seem to have the patience thus surrounding in the battle of Iran and the United States.

Steve’s Barking; Different takeaways from Knicks winning NBA championship 2026

 This blogger takes away from Jalen Brunson. 
 Never doubt yourself. 
 Trust yourself, even when the so-called experts call you too small, too slow. Believe in yourself.
 As a team (and an individual also), keep on pushing and never give up, you too can make a comeback from being down by what seems unsurmountable.
 Teamwork is more important than great individual talent.

Steve’s a barking: What if we treated IPOs like the TV show the price is right ( huh)

 What is this crazy blogger writing about now? Comparing an IPO to a game show. 
 Well, that’s not exactly what I’m getting at. 
 The price that the owners of the stock before the IPO make a killing if (and it does) the price rises extremely high. My idea is just like the game show: the price is right (if you win something like a car), you are charged the full retail of the commodity in taxes (a car loses value as soon as you take it home). Well, the United States needs to help pay off its debt, so why not help pay off the debt by having the so-called gains of the person making the money the first day and possibly months later on the gains, so the rich slob should be treated like the poor slob, and we the people can help pay off our national debt.

Steve’s Barking; Question …. what happen to gold as hedge against inflation? (6/11/26)

 In the United States, we are having extremely high inflation. At the same time, the holding of gold is going down. Now, how do I know that gold is going down? Well, if the price is going down, I make the presumption that people are selling gold. Now, I’m assuming that people are not holding it against inflation,  as it was in the olden days.

Steve’s Barking; Question of the day, Is America committing suicide ?

 This crazy blogger has it in his head that by the IPO of SpaceX and the other non-solvent companies, the stock market will be destroyed.  It will destroy life savings, retirement, and pensions. 
 Now you may ask how will it do that? These non-profitable companies will take money from profitable companies, thereby diluting the money saved.
 No one is saying where the money that is needed to use AI companies and to travel to Mars is coming from. 
 Now companies are asking people to pay to go Add free. At one time, there was only a limited amount of ads on these platforms; now there is more time taken up by ads than content.
 Almost 100 years ago, the stock market crashed, and along with it came the Great Depression. Do you, the reader, think like me, this not-too-smart blogger, because of the weakening of regulations, there is an excellent chance of another market crash and another Great Depression? 
 In conclusion, did America commit economic suicide by loosening regulations?

Steve’s Barking; Question of the day. Where is all this money coming from?

 This blogger, not being the smartest guy in the world, doesn’t understand where all the money is coming from to build these AI data centers. I keep reading that Alphabet, Meta, SpaceX, and several new companies are going to need billions and billions of dollars, equaling trillions of trillions of dollars. Now I know that assets and debt equal over 45 trillion dollars, maybe more, but what I don’t understand is how can you turn assets and debt into liquid assets? Are the banks suddenly printing money, or have they been hoarding the billions? Are those with retirement money suddenly going to have money to go crazy and help finance these billions of dollars the AI data centers need?

 Speaking of money, who has that kind of money to invest in SpaceX IPO that values it over a trillion dollars? 

 I’m just not smart enough to figure it out.



Steve’s Barking; What me worry about birh rate

 Oh no, this crazy blogger is now saying that despite what the doom-sayers are shooting about, we shouldn’t be scared of lowering birth rates. We should be worrying about the sustainability of humans with the depletion of resources that we need to survive.

Steve’s Barking; Stock prudence wrong ( 6/5/2016)

 I kept hearing that the stock market was waiting for the job report. The assumption was that if the jobs report was good ( it great) stocks would go up, so as of 11am the stock market is down. Go figure 🀫

Steve’s Barking; Upper Middle class Democratic Socialist

  It has come to my attention that those who run and our in office are upper middle class. 
 It seems to me that they or the spouses make or have assets that put them in the upper middle class.
 The mayor of New York has land in Uganda that’s worth from reports upwards of a quarter of a million dollars.
 The  Democratic Socialist representative from Minnesota reported, then said no to at least a million dollar income.
 My ex representative from the Bronx and Queens hasn’t married her finance, so no one knows what she’s really worth.
 In my foolish mind I could care less. If they want to be the torch bearers for the lower income Americans so be it.
 My problem with the hiding of wealth by Democratic Socialists is the trust worthiness of these politicians. Hiding their income and or assets.

Steve’s Barking; The U.S should tax the rich more.

 I’ve been reading that the United States deficit has become runaway. This being true the logical thing to do is raise taxes or cut spending. We’re are we going to cut spending? Weaken the defense? Health care to make the country sicker. Housing subsidies to make the U.S. look like a third world country with millions more living on the streets. Cut government workforce? We doing that and from this crazy blogger’s point a view it has made a not to efficient government, even less efficient.
 The next thing to bring about a reduced deficit is to raise money. Now I ask myself how do you raise money if you’re the government? Well I guess you have to do the unthinkable to raise taxes.  
 Should you raise taxes across the board? Well the poor have no money, and if you raise taxes among the middle class there’s a good chance that they would become poor. 
 In my crazy mind the United States government should raise taxes on those who presumably could afford it the most, the rich, who while they may not be to enthusiastic about that, they would be doing the patriotic thing and and pay more in taxes. It may even be away to help preserve their riches (wtf).

Steve’s Barking; Is the U.S. military stock pile of arms a joke?

  This ignorant blogger has no idea if this is true, but there are reports in the press that the United States is running low on munitions because of the Iranian war. 
 Now as far as I can tell, this was an extremely short, intensive bombing, and even if there is more intensive use of munitions, it should not be a major depletion of munitions that the press lays claims to. If it is, then the United States military is seriously unprepared for combat.

Steve’s Barking; Fall of gas prices good πŸ‘πŸΎor maybe bad πŸ‘Ž

 What is this crazy blogger? Of course, the price of gas going down is great. Just think if the fall in the price of gas means that the people have more money to spend on goods, services, and investing.  Not only that, the price of goods should come down, and profits should go up because the price of gas would decrease the cost of delivering goods.
 Ah, but what if the price of gas collapses because there is no demand for gas because there is a deep recession and no one has the ability and the need to buy gas?
 One can make the case that the recession is caused by the high price of gas and that if gas becomes cheaper, therefore, the recession would be short-lived. 
 This foolish blogger is not positive that this would happen. Fear and possibly recent economic shock may have the unwillingness to spend. Business may even be afraid of higher back payments for those who were laid off.

Steve’s Barking; U S debt isn’t the end of the world

 Crazy blogger keeps reading that the U.S. interest on the national debt is more then the US takes in from revenue. Well I have a suggestion which the conservative old farts would be shocked. Slightly raise taxes on Medicare and on Social Security along with ending the cap Social Security. 
 Why would should this be done. It would strengthen both where you wouldn’t have to pay creating a bank of the United States were it strictly could borrow and not have to pay until a long time into the future. It would also protect the future payouts of those two government programs. 
 On paper you have debt, but in real life you are not paying it as you are now.


——————————————————————————————————————————-
If the U.S. was serious about paying off it debt and still have a vibrant country it would increase slightly the capital gains tax.

Steve’s Barking ; Is Elon Musk really worth what we think he is?

 Elon Musk is a genius at what he does. There I said it, even though I’m not sure he truly understands the science of his companies. He’s genius is controlling companies and selling the idea of these companies to the general public. In my mind there’s no one better.
 One’s net worth is based on worth of assets minus debt. Now as I understand it the general public has a pretty good idea of Elon’s gross worth but we the unwashed have no idea what his debt is. 
 That being said I (we) have no real idea of what Mr. Musk’s net worth really is.

Steve’s Barking; Are we all colonists ?

 This stupid blogger claims that we are ALL colonists. That can’t be, because if you read the majority opinion, it’s the other guy who’s a colonist.
 My way of thinking is that we or our ancestors came from a different land. And after a while, the world grew into clusters ( tribes, then super tribes known as countries). Other tribes came along and took the land and the resources. Sometimes we even took over people and we made them slaves. 
 This can be considered colonialism even if you came from just over the hill.

 Oh, being a colonist is a terrible thing, so we and our ancestors are terrible.

Steve’s Barking; The death of education industry?

 I, this crazy blogger keeps hearing of more and more graduates of high school questioning the rationale of going to college. Thir claims that the jobs that they are going to get are on par with many new jobs that you don’t need a college degree.i
 There is also the debt of going to a private and in some cases public college. That the debt keeping the student poor for years to come after they have gotten their degree.
 There is also the fear that artificial intelligence computers will make many of the jobs now done by college graduates obsolete.
 If there is a ground swell of this thinking does one think that few and few students going to college. If fewer students wanting to go to college hurting the enrollment, perhaps many of the colleges and universities will have to close down, hurting the education industry so bad that one might say that the education industry might be on its death bed.

Steve’s Barking; The cost of AI

 What is the cost of AI?
 Looking at the papers the cost of AI is trillions. That’s seems to be more then what is in circulation,
So we’re the Ai companies getting the money? A lot of it’s coming from the banks or so it seems. That’ s the people money.The people don’t have that kind of money and even if they did how are the borrower banks going to give the money back?
 Who is going to afford AI? So how is the AI companies going to return money to the banks and the banks in turn toward their borrowers?

 The second cost of AI is will it take away from human brain power? Will we all turn to AI to do our financial figuring? Will we turn to AI to do our thinking? Our memories and our history? Will the cost be the end of human higher intelligence giving way to machinery? Will that be the non money cost of AI?

Steve’s Barking ; Why do world leaders want other countries that are presently not theirs?

China wants Taiwan! Russia wants Ukraine! US wants Canada and Greenland,

This blogger has no answer, because he’s not smart enough!

Steve’s Barking; Is free childcare good?

 This crazy blogger looks at free childcare and sees a good thing for employers. Huh

 Well child’s parents worries are less, hopefully more productive work force. Less absentee workers. In some cases the extra taxes is cheaper then the extra cost of giving employees extra pay to cover the cost.

 Is it good governance to have the tax payer pick up the cost of childcare after all taxes will have to be raised to cover the cost?

  Child caregivers are wage earners being taxed plus the fact that they will be consumers adding to the wealth of the community businesses.  Will this cover the cost of the free childcare. Perhaps not, perhaps yes, but this blogger still think it’s good business for the government.

Steve’s Barking; Don’t wait to take Social Security

 If you wait to take Social Security, you will be losing money. Within 4 to 5 years Social Security administration will only be paying at best 79% of what It’s supposed to pay. This Social Security trust fund is running out of money. There’s nothing in the immediate future that says the Social Security trust fund will be fully funded. There are all kinds of ideas on how to fund it but 99%of the ideas are wacko. The only way to really fund the iSocial Security trust fund is to end the cap on the Social Security tax and in this blogger’s honest opinion the only true way to fund the trust fund will be ignored.

Steve’s Barking; The real reason for Zionism ( The death of over 65,000 Palestinians)

 The justification of the State of Israel to many is that the Jews are returning to their homeland. Now that is not the real reason for the State of Israel. The real reason is for most of Israelis is Prosecution and the face of  being murdered  by anti semites. The fact of the matter Theodore Hertzel first suggested that Jews who were being persecuted should move to Africa. That there would be a safe haven in what is now Uganda . This for some reason didn’t prove practical.( I in my infinite wisdom do not know why). Now my knowledge ( though may not be exact) the Ottoman census and letters from travelers in Palestine ( I-call the land Palestine because that is what I believe it was called in 1900.) the land was scarcely populated.
 In the beginning of the movement there was only a trickle of Jews going to Palestine ,and the Jews would much rather move to places such as the United States. 
 Then came the Great Depression and places such as the United States decreased the immigration and at that time was the rise of Nazi Germany and major antisemitism around the globe.  Many Jews saw Israel as a safe haven.Of cause the British who had a mandate to control Palestine limited immigration causing many a Jew to lose their lives. ( Perhaps the British didn’t want to anger the Arab population who had a vast majority of Palestine .)
 After WWII Immigration to the rest of the world was limited so Jews  left for Palestine many of which were smuggled in.
 By 1948 Jewish Palestine had a large population and the United Nations decided to recognize Jewish Palestine now called Israel.
 Now in my learned opinion the Arabs States persecuted and threw out almost all and in some cases all their Jewish populations. Now where were they supposed to go? Israel was the their only hope, so 800 thousand Jewish Arabs immigrated to Israel. ( Perhaps if the Arab nation didn’t act in an anti Jewish matter Israel would be a much weaker nation).
 Now there is a push for ( the lack of a better term) a religious fever bringing Jews to Israel.

 To sum up the first part of the blog Israel was created not so much as a Jewish State but as  a refugee State for Jews such as Liberia was set up as an African State for free slaves of America.

 The second part of this blog, what about the 35 to 65 thousands of Palestinians who died in Gaza this past year and a half. Who’s really to blame.
 Is it the Jews who are defending themselves?
 Is it the religious fanatics (Muslim) who can’t stand other religions?
 Is it the college students who by their protesting Zionism encourage the Palestinians to attack Israel there by forcing Israel to retaliate?
 Is it the Muslim who believes that suicide bombings of what they consider infidels will send them to paradise forcing the Israelis to defend themselves by any means possible?
 Is it the Muslim refugee who immigrated to other countries just as Jews immigrated to Israel and demand that Jews get out of Palestine?
 Is it the immigrants that who fled for their lives just as the Jews did and are complaining about Jews in what the call Palestine?
 Is it the commentator who ( may or may not be Antisemitic) who  complains about  Israel retaliating against the Palestinians thus encouraging attacks against Israel forcing Israel  to defend itself by any means necessary?
 Is it the Palestinians who refuse to sit down with the Israelis and discuss peace?

 What is never discussed is in discussing Palestine is that countries all over the world change hands all the time, even Saudi Arabia was ruled by the Jordanians

Is it that it will take over all the jobs?

Is it that it will take over the planet?

Is it that it will take over all the water and electricity?

Is it that the machines will crash because of the lack of water and electricity leaving us mortals turning into zombies?

Steve’s Barking; Is demands for censorship a liberal thing

  I’ve been looking at the demands that Jimmy Kimmel be taken off the air, and Steven Colbert is being taken off the air. This is because of so-called conservative and Trump’s backlash. I’m against censorship, so I don’t believe in taking comedians off the air. I’m not the only one, but many liberals are also upset about this. The only problem with a lot of these so-called liberals is that they wanted to censor and bar several comedians and commentators that went against their sentiments.

Steve’s Barking;; No it isn’t communism or socialism that keeps a country poor

 Oh my lord, what is this crazy blogger writing about now, after all the know it alls will tell you that communism and socialism keeps a country poor. This nut case who is writing this blog looks at the country that are in the European Union, and they being socialist style countries that seem to be doing alright economically. Let’s not forget about Communist China.

 What about countries such as Haiti under Popa Doc, and Argentina under Juan Peron ? They were not exactly thriving countries.

 Taken by this small sample one might that in a lot of cases it the dictatorship that makes a country poorer.

Steve’s Barking; New York is the perfect state to build AI hubs

  WTF can this idiot being saying that the perfect state to build AI hubs after all is a high tax state!
 Ah but New York State has an abundance of water not to mention the ability to produce electricity through hydro, wind and gas. 
 Ah but Texas and Virginia have non existent taxes or much have lower taxes. 
 The problem with that thinking is you can always lower taxes but you can’t increase natural resources that the hubs need.

Steve’s Barking; Musk says universal welfare is the answer!

  Elon Musk said that everyone should get a check from the government because of AI. Well were I come from if your getting a check from the government for not going work that’s called welfare. So even though  he claims that it wouldn’t be inflationary because supply would be there, and everything would be inexpensive to produce because of the cheapness to make by robotics.

 My question to Elon is were is the government going to get the money to payout those welfare checks?

Steve Barking; Question of the day, are the Social Democrats the Democratic Party’s tea party?

 Is the Social Democrats the Democratic Party’s Tea Party. Why ask that question after all the Social Democrats have been around forever while the tea party was a more recent phenomenon ? Well there both fringe. They both had success recently, one in the early 20s and the other present day..Both are roundly attacked by the ruling class of their parties. So perhaps they are similar while being 180 degrees apart.


Personally I like different voices with different ideas.

 Why am I asking?

 Well in my part of Queens that I grew up in, only the dead had monuments built for them and the same thing is said for name changes.
 Just asking is Donald Trump dead?

Steve’s Barking;; Would Egypt take Jews back?

 I keep hearing from so called Palestinian supporters that the Jews living in Israel or Palestine if that pleases you should go back to their country of origin. My question is will Iraq, Syria, Jordon and all the other Muslim countries take the Jews that over 70 years came from?Majority of Jews living in Israel according to the census didn’t come from Europe. Theyb came from the Middle East. 

 What about the Jews who lived in Palestine in the late 1800s.? We’re are those,Jews suppose to go?

 Should Israel (Palestine) go back to Turkey after all they were the last group who conquered the last and owned it?

Steve’s Barking; Double blockade of the Strait of Hormuz ❓

 My understanding is that Iran is attacking any shipping going in or out of the Straits of Hormuz. This has hurt the world economy. The President of the United States just said that the U.S. is going to blockade the Strait of Hormuz. My crazy reasoning is that this is going to totally stop any shipping in the strait and this will put more hurt on the world economy. Oh well, I guess that only a higher power can save the world economy.πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™

Steve’s Barking; Copy cat Trump’s America

 The latest Trump is endorsing leaving NATO just like Russia isn’t part of the Warsaw Pact.

 Trump ‘s America fired it generals just like China fired its generals.

 Trump Intimidates members of congress to get his own way just like the leaders of  China and Russia do.

 Trump tries to intimidate American industry just as the leaders of China and Russia does.

 Trump is trying to get his own way with America’s banking system ( the Federal Reserve) kind of like Russia and China.

 Do you think perhaps the American Trump administration is coping the dictatorship of both Russia and China.

Steve’s Barking; And Stalin made monuments to himself

 This crazy blogger is noticing  that the head of my country is building monuments to himself while alive, this is the same as Joseph Stalin did when he ruled communist Russia, and when he passed much of the monuments were torn down. Just saying, just because a person builds monuments or renames things to himself, doesn’t mean it will last past when he is gone.

Steve’s Barking; If Israel had lost the war in ‘48 there would be no Palestine

 Oh nuts, this crazy blogger is at it again.If Israel had lost the war in 48 of cause there would be a Palestine, or so isn’t that was what the attack by Egypt,Syria and Jorden was all about? 
 Now let me guess those three countries would have given up the land that they had just fought for. 
 Now I don’t think I’m that crazy to believe that there was no chance in hell that those three countries would have given up the land that they had just fought for to a state call Palestine.
 Were am I getting this crazy idea from. Well I just look at human nature and history.
 For that matter I never heard anything that those countries that didn’t want a non Arab state in their mist actually say that they would create a new Arab nation on their borders call Palestine.

Steve’s Barking; Staten Island has turned into a nudist town

 Staten Island had turned into a nudist town,
 10:people were spotted walking around nude. Therefore Staten Island is a nudist town.

Calling Staten Island a nudist town because I stated ( though I just made that up) is ridiculous even if there were 10 people scurrying around in their birthday suits. The population of Staten Island is over 490,000 so what if ten people were walking around with out a stitch, that would hardly make Staten Island a nudist parodies, but judging from the state of the way we been talking about woke ( what ever that is) we can evoke tge sense that if 10 people for every 400,00 think and talk about such foolishness the United States is being over run by woke.

Steve’s Barking; Trump, the same as Jackson

 This lame blogger wants to compare President Andrew Jackson ( old hickory) and Donald ( the master builder) Trump. (1) They both claimed that the election they lost was stolen from them.(2) One ran the country in a dictatorial way and the other his running the country in a dictatorial way. (3)One made fun of his enemies and the other is doing the same.(4) One ignored the Supreme Court and the other wants to. (5) One catered to the rabble and so is the other catering to the rabble. (6) One wanted to punch or a least jail his critics and that is what the other one wants to do.

Steve’s Barking; The next GOP presidential candidate will be Tucker Carlson

  Why do I say that the presidential candidate will be Tucker Carlson because Tucker Carlson is a celebrity host. Of the last four republican presidential candidates two of them were celebrity hosts. Going along with past performance celebrity host are prime candidates for the president. Oh and I almost forgot Tucker is a conservative.
 The only problem with Tucker is he’s kind of young and the GOP loves them a lot older, perhaps some one like Bill O’Reily will be the next nominee.

Steve’s Barking; Democratic Party silly season

 


 Who is going to be the Democrats presidential candidate that can best represent the party in the next presidential election? Is it California governor Newsom? No,no no no. Is Pennsylvania governor Shapiro? No, no ,no.no. Ocasio- Cortes? No, no no,no.  Harris? No,no, no, no. Beshear? Ah? Pritzker ? Uh na,  There are other’s who name appears in the spotlight.

 What I’m going to say may surprise many but judging from the last four Democrats who won the Oval Office, three were relatively unknown before before winning the nomination and becoming President. Carter, Clinton , and Obama.

 Judging by past performance tge best thing the Democrats can do is nominate a relatively unkown.

Steve’s Barking; I was wrong about free trade, and bringing down tensions

 Oh this blogger is such a fool. I believed in all my heart that having free trade and having countries depend on each other would lesson tension and prove that we of the world community depends on each other, to keep prices down and to keep employment high, therefore the tensions between countries would be lessened. Ah but my country  the good old US of A and its leadership has proven me wrong. 
 It appears to me and maybe I’m wrong but the selfishness of leadership to prove superiority is more important to the leadership then a stabled world order were everyone benefits.

Steve’s Barking; Reason crime rate fell in the U.S. ?



 According to statistics the crime rate in The US of A fell last year.
 There are some who will tell you this is because of America’s crackdown on illegal immigrants.
 Others will tell you that it’s because of the stricter enforcement of the gun laws.
 My theory is that statistics lie.

Steve’s Barking; Qustion of othe day, does the west worship G-d or religion?

 

 I look at Islam and see self righteous sects who claim that they are the true Worshipers of G-d. They attack each other because they can’t attack harder other religions that believe in G-d. I look at those who are Sunni,Shite, and even Al-Qaeda, and Isis. They attack and demean each other.
 I look at this and then I look at Christianity. Are Christians who belong to other denominations at one time Or another attacked verbally and physically one another.
 I look at Jewish denominations and if it wasn’t for antisemitism, they might be attacking each other too. I know at one time and the Jewish tribes they split up and 10 tribes went one way and two tribes went to another. Could this be because of religious differences?
 Why question is if they believe that G-d is almighty, why do they question the way one Worships the almighty, for the almighty will strengthen it all out.
 It’s almost in my mind that those who suggest that their way is the right way and the only way are anti
G—d.

Steve’s Barking; AI should help solve the fiscal problem of the U.S.

 The good old US of A I keep hearing is having a fiscal crises. Its debt is according to some is unmanageable. Now some of these know it all says we can’t raise taxes, because if we raise taxes the rich will say goodbye and find a tax haven in some other country. 
 Now there are some who believe that we should cut services. There are some who even believe that we have a bloated work force that needs to be cut.
 There are some out there who claim that the the government doesn’t do enough for the citizens of the United States, so perhaps we should cut the money going to the military and incarceration.
 What to do, what to do.
 Well this intrepid blogger says that we should use Artificial Intelligence to fix this dilemma. Why would I write this. Well we are being told that artificial intelligence is way smarter then non artificial intelligence, and if that’s is true then it would be prudent for the manufacturers of AI to prove it by having a contest to fix the deficit of America and prove that AI is truly brilliant.

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

 My generation’s grandparents were in most cases poor. If you are much younger than 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 retirees.

 If you look at the dollar amount that the salaries of the workers and you compare them with the salary of the 30s and 40s, you may shake your head. After all, today’s monetary salaries are huge compared to the old days, but if you compare it to the price of necessities, the United States may be headed in a worse place than 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 ( πŸ€”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; 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; How do I know …inflation and recession

 How do I know if this is 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.

Steve’s Barking; Mom said, put your money in the bank

 

Mom said, put your money in the bank and don’t invest it because you might lose it and the bank gives you interest and is insured.
 Mom came through the depression and that was the thinking of many a person who lived through the depression.
 One of my uncles on the other hand said invest, it gives you better returns. Look at the balance sheet, it should tell you if it’s going to go out of business. Also most of the stocks I ( meaning himself) invest in pay dividends that are greater then the interest you will get from the savings account from the bank.
 Being a good son I took and are to the present day  is taking my mom’s advice, because of this I’m sure I missed out on many a great opportunity ( in the present day) too make oodles and oodles of money..
 I may also have lost out to loose my shirt if the other investors decided to pull out.

Steve’s Barking; Nothing blog



I recently sent a blog that had zero on it. This only goes to prove that this blogger is just like the recent  presidents of the United States I’m senile.

 The real reason this blog had nothing on it was I was trying to take a  picture of a children’s book that with the help of my family I wrote, If We had no letters.

 I am truly sorry to the two people who saw this nothing blog. Yes I better be careful that I don’t publish nothing ever again, even though some one who reads my blog maybe believe everything I write is about nothing.

Steve’s Barking; Can AI save itself?

 


Wtf can AI save itself?
Why would anybody say such a stupid thing?
Well AI needs plenty of water and the Hubs are running out of water.
 AI also needs electricity and at least in the United States electricity were the hubs are electricity is becoming scarce.
So this not to bright blogger is wondering can the smartest man made invention think of a way of saving itself and mankind living near those hubs.

Steve’s Barking; Texas , no water anywhere

 I understand many a person are or are considering to move to Texas because it’s a cheap place to live because of it’s low tax rate. Now I also understand there is a major drought in Texas. I also understand that Texas is encouraging AI data center to come on down even though these AI data centers need a Stupendous amount of water. πŸ’§ 

There are two things that bewilder me. (1) Were in Texas are these AI centers going to get all the water that it’s going to need. (2) Are the people whom go to Texas because of Taxes willing to dehydrate for the lack of water πŸ’§πŸ€” to not pay high taxes?

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

 Are those companies making a mistake to relocating factories to Texas with the lack of water and a collapsing electrical grid.

Steve’s Barking; To sum, cut back in income is the same as inflation

 


 Most of us don’t think of it, especially those who just look at the price of goods and service, but to many of us the cutting of income, weather it’s from the pay, your pension, Social Security, or even mentally the loss of value of investments ( mentally) your ability to purchase and or save is reduced. This is the same as  if the price of goods  and services rises, this to the consumer is the same as inflation.

 The reason I’m writing this is because us retires in the not to distant future will be hurt by the reduction in the moneys we get from Social Security and this will be the same as the cost of goods and services rise.


Steve’s Barking; AI …..Predator or dud?

 


I keep hearing that AI ( artificial intelligence)  in robots and computers can out think humans and actually do things only animals can do and that is reasoning and thinking. These things ( I don’t know what else to call them ) can out think us humans and if we’re not careful they will take over the world, kind of like the movie predator ( The Arnold Schwarzenegger movie) and we humans will become obsolete.

 Now I understand that there is a minority train of thought that AI can only go so far and then it will soon reach it capacity that it will just be able to calculate faster us humans and help us manipulate are thinking by movies and photos. That in the next couple of years this will hit a stone wall.

 Now this blogger is bright enough to figure what is next and I’m one of those who use AI only to look up facts that may or may not be manipulated by humans and or machines.

Steve Barking Do ya really trust US government statistics?

 


Do you really trust statistics by a group of people who would lose their jobs if they gave lousy figures.??
There are an awful lot of fools out there who believe what ever the government says, even though those giving  the reports would lose their jobs if it shows too much negative numbers.
 The current U.S. labor statistics seems to this old fool like the numbers that came out of the old Soviet Union,

Steve’s barking; Don’t care about Super Bowl Half time show

 

This idiot couldn’t care less about the Super Bowl halftime show. I turn in to watch a football game and the damn halftime show is way way too long, no matter who the entertainer is. 

 If I wanted to see a musical performance I’ll go to U Tube music. The half time show takes away from the game. The half time show twice or more then normal halftime and it seems to me it interferes with the mindset of some of the teams.

My understanding that the seventh largest market cap stock is Tesla today.
 My understanding that the seventh largest market cap stock in 2000 was Enron
 Maybe that why I don’t give much credence to the worth of Tesla.

Steve’s Barking; Is Donald Trump a Republican Socialist?

 Wtf, Donald Trump a Republican Socialist. First of all how can one be a Republican and a Socialist at the same time. Well Mr. Trump says put a cap on credit card interest rates, that’s kind of like what a Democratic Socialist would say. Donald says that drug companies charge too much so let’s pressure the drug companies to drop the price of drugs, now isn’t that what a democratic socialist would say? 

 Hold on, is this blogger saying that the president of America is a socialist and not really a Republican or is the President of the United States trying to turn the Republican Party, which I’m told he represents from a Conservative Party to a populist party.

 Nah this bloggers is just making fun of ( not very good I might add)  what we call socialist, populist and sometimes conservative is crazy.

 Good thing this blogger doesn’t have too many followers, because what he just wrote is kind of hard to understand.

Steve’s Barking; Is it Commuism - Socialism that retards growth or something else


 Ah… I keep reading and hearing on the idiot box that Communist and Socialism makes a country poorer. They tend to talk ( write) about the Soviet Union and Cuba and for some reason they don’t talk about The People’s Republic of China. They also don’t seem to remember Haiti under Papa Doc and a very robust economy of Argentina before Juan Perrone  and the collapse of  Argentina’s economy. The 10 top countries with the highest GDP, most of them Germany, Italy United Kingdom,  Canada ext, with non socialist counties US of A and India (?) Japan (?)industrial power houses in the top 10 ten. ( I’m really not sure we’re to place Australia). 

 In the fog of my writing, I’m saying that you can be a country with communist/ socialist tendencies and be an economic powerhouse while you can be a strong capitalist country and be an economic dud,

 “I” believe that the most effective countries economically are countries that have mixed socialist capitalist  tendencies.

Steve’s Barking; Were is the money coming from???

 Oh this dumb blogger has a problem, he just doesn’t understand were the  money is coming from to finance “AI” computing. I keep hearing that companies like Amazon, Meta and Google are going to spend 2 Trillion dollars in the next year. Now I keep hearing that most of this money is going to be borrowed. Ok where the heck are they supposed to borrow this money from. Now as I do recall from one of my economics classes that would create higher interest rates. Hmm would this hurt the debt of governments, making it more expensive to borrow? While I’m at it, would this raise the cost of borrowing for housing? Now my feeble brain seems to think that the money in circulation is shrinking because of layoffs and consumer spending is slowing. 

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

I keep hearing of national debt and how will these countries pay off there debt, yet some of these same people don’t worry about company debt. πŸ€”

Steve’s Barking; Question of the day is a person who has $100,000 in liquid assets richer then a multi billionaire?

 Sounds like an idiotic question, how can a person who only 100,000 dollars in a checking account be richer then some one who is supposed to be worth billions of dollars. Well if the person who has $100,000 and has no debt except living expenses and has income that more then covers his living expenses then his net worth is over $100,000. 
 A so called billionaire who has his money tied up stocks and Real estate and his income which may be huge doesn’t cover expenses, so he borrows against his holdings really richer then the person who has liquid $100,000.
 Don’t forget gross value of stocks and real estate fluctuates and some even collapse.
 What happens to the person if he can’t borrow against his holdings? Is he bankrupt?
 If the holdings go down greater then his debt, is his net worth negative, especially compared to the person who has $100,000 liquid.

*************************************************************************************
 If the person who has $100,000 liquid in the bank and the bank loans money to billionaires is the person with money in the bank third party holder of the billionaire’s debt?

Steve’s Barking; If you have money in the American market and it goes up can you still lose money


 If you have money in the American stock market and it goes up, can you still lose money? Sounds like a stupid question, if the stock you own goes up of cause you’re wealthier, unless the dollar does down against other currencies. Is it possible that that lets say the Euro goes  way up against the dollar in reality you wealth is going down. Is it possible that if inflation is greater then the growth of your stock, then therefore the value of your stocks even though it went up in dollar terms is actually losing value?

Steve’s Barking; If you’re not ignorant then you’re stupid

 As I grow older I have a great desire to learn something new every day. If I am learning something new every day then yesterday I was ignorant of what I learned today. If I think I know everything then I must be G-d, because I know I’m not G-d then I know that I’m ignorant of many, many things. If I believe that I know it all then I’m stupid. Even in things that I have pretty decent knowledge, I don’t know it all and because I realize that I don’t know it all keeps me from being stupid.

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

I hear on the idiot box from people whom tell those who happen to be listening (looking) on this particular show from some supposedly knowledgeable person who gives only part of the story and because they give only a partial part of the story the story is incomplete at best or totally wrong as in most cases.

Steve’s Barking; American sports hall of fames,

 This blogger was a lover of baseball hall of fame, even going to the Cooperstown hall of fame. When y ( baseball hof ) . Ah there is an outrage of the football hall of fame because the winningest Super Bowl couch of all time wasn’t elected on the first ballot. Ah what is being reported that someone leaked the information that Bill Belichick wasn’t a first time elected into the hall. The committee is up in arms about the leak. The committee should be up in arms about the small amount of football retirees who can be elected. In this blogger’s opinion there are greats who will never be put into the hall of fame. Again in this blogger’s opinion’s yep couch Belichick should have been elected right off the bat, but because of the goofy rules( my opinion) possibly some of the voters didn’t vote for him be leaving that he would get in despite them not voting for him but their hope was one that they voted for that hadn’t been voted in and should’ve been would get enough votes. Nice idea, but a greater idea would be the changing of the rules that perhaps quadruple the amount that can be voted in. If not quadruple at least double for the next ten years while those who saw the old timers and know how great they were and not being looked at.

 Now let me write about the foolishness of the baseball hall of fame. Some other greatest players of my time are better denied because of cheating. No Bonds, no Sosa, No Clemens. Yet Roe who admitted to cheating is in.   Niekro who was caught with doctoring the ball with an Emory board in his pocket is. Perry who admitted to throwing a spitball is.

 What about Mr. Rose who was a tremendous hitter but bet on games so he’s not in, yet persons like Cobb and Speaker was charged with actually throwing games are in ( never proven)
 (/This writer not they taken about gambling on games that you not involved in is no big deal).

 This old man has become ho, hum on American Sports hall of Fames.

Steve’s Barking; It’s imperative that Social Security has a trust fund

 Social Security’s has negative balance, and because it has a negative balance the U.S. treasury is paying what is owed to the recipients. They takes money away from paying things like the arm forces, paving roads and other essential services so the treasury has to double the borrowing weakening the U.S. dollar. The treasury used to borrow from the Social Security trust fund to help pay the bills, but as of now the treasury is hit with a double whammy of paying off what it has borrowed from Social Security and paying for essential services ( and not so essential services).

 My suggestion is to do away with the cap on what is taxed.

 In the near future Social Security will be paying only 79% or less to the recipients of Social Security, they may leave some of the stress on the treasury, but in all likelihood it will put a stress on the U.S gross domestic product because there will be less money in circulation, especially for those who have little or no other retirement money.

 The ending of the cap on what is taxed should have been done way in the past, The United States needs to refill the Social Security trust asp to shore up its finance's.

Steve’s Barking; Dollar collapse, loss of wealth ?

 Ah I keep hearing of these multi billionaires and how wealthy they are. Now let me get this straight ( I could be absolutely wrong) but isn’t their wealth is in terms of the dollar? Now I also understand that the dollar is falling in terms of other currencies of the world.  Now what happens if dollar turns into value less then the Mexican peso ( I know that there may be some snarky people out there who if they were to read this would fall off their chair in laughter). I being who I am look at those countries that are selling the United States debt, therefore weakening the dollar. The Cheapening dollar by printing more dollars. The Looking of countries to make trade deals that exclude the United States, because of the high tariffs. The no need to buy American products because of these trade deals, therefore less need for the American dollar.

 Now of course these billionaires will still be billionaires ( maybe) but their worth in the terms of foreign currency will not be the same.

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

The weakening of the Social Security system is another attack on the dollar, but I’ll leave that for another post.

Steve’s Barking; Is garbage in American food actually bad for you?

 Now we all know that I, as an American, eat food with unnatural stuff such as chemicals and sugar.   Meats in most cases have growth hormones, and fruits and vegetables in a lot of cases are sprayed with what is called poison ( things like DDT).

 The question is: farmed-raised fish are better or worse for the human body than fresh-caught fish that may have plastics in them and  even perhaps diseases that are undetected and natural chemicals that the fish produce. The same is true for farm animals; raw vegetation from the ground that the animals eat may stay with the animal, and we, the eater, may be consuming it in our bodies. What about the growth hormones that are given to livestock? Are they really and truly harmful to us humans, and if not, do these hormones make for a tastier and healthier food? Let’s not forget about the pesticides that are used; how dangerous are they to us humans? Do we need to eat a tremendous amount or even a little amount of dangerous food? What if we don’t use pesticides? Would we have enough vegetables ?  What about the bread that we Americans eat that doesn’t come from the bakery?Does the chemical that we put into our industrial process bread hurt us or because it saves the shelf life of bread and prevents things like mold from happening sooner than later?

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

Fresh bread from a good bakery tastes much better than grocery store bread. Wild-caught fish seems to have a better flavor to them. Natural-raised livestock when not starving, in my opinion, have a slightly better flavor. The same is true for fresh fruits and vegetables that don’t have pesticides on them; they taste better.

Steve’s Barking; Fear, vs anger vs exhaustion vs hatred winning at war


 This goofy blogger thinks that there are several ways of winner a war, it can be a combination. Russiathat it can beat Ukraine in my mind first by fear and then by exhaustion. Ukraine is fighting by anger and hatred and it seems that anger and hatred is winning.
 The Palestinians think that they can take Israel with fear, anger and and possibly exhaustion.The Israelis are fighting the Palestinians With fear, anger And the hope of exhaustion of the Palestinians.
 The US thinks it can win by using fear ( bombing and Threats ).

Steve’s Barking; Are warehouse worker replacing salesmen?

 This intrepid blogger has noticed that malls are closing at a record pace. Some of the stores that this blogger has gone too is empty of much merchandise. Now this screwy blogger using his computer to buy merchandise so if many others are doing the same perhaps warehouse workers and delivery persons are taking the place of store workers?

Steve’s Barking; Two world leaders on fantasy Island !

 Who would have thought it. There are two major world leaders who seem to be on a fantasy kick. 

One thinks that he can win a war against the rest of the world when his country hasn’t beaten a much smaller country and his country has shown new weapons that are supposed to scare the rest of the world but as it uses these weapons in a war against a much supposedly weaker country they are absolute failure and the rest of the world is laughing at these weapons failure to deliver.

One of these world leaders who claims that his country’s economy is the best ever while the price of goods and services are in real terms 10 to 20 percent greater after he took office and the for the normal person it getting harder and harder to find a job. Of course his administration seems to have cooked the books and tell an out and out nonsense.

Steve’s Barking; NFL fire the coach

 The NFL has a new game called fire the coach. No matter how successful your coach is if he doesn’t win the Super Bowl let’s get a new coach. The team owners have nobody in mind too replace the old coach. Now this is something that this old blogger doesn’t understand, I was taught that you try not to fire someone unless you have someone who you believe is better or that the person that is being fired is a complete incompetent for the job. The other reason is antagonizing fans or owner. ( In business that would be customers and your superiors )

Steve’s Barking: US new battle ships the crap class

 Several weeks ago President Donald Trump stated that the United States was building new expensive battleships even though in modern war fare battle ships are outdate and modern warfare shows that what is needed is nimble and rather inexpensive weapons such as drones. Because of this I’m calling the new ( outdated) battleships the crap class battleships.

Wellll not quite, but he is quoted as saying that saying for retirement will be irrelevant in the next 10 to 29 years because of AI. Well this stupid blogger’s thinking if you are just starting out and n your 20s 30s and even 40s then if you take Elon’s believe in what Elon is saying then you would be foolish to buy Tesla stock for your retirement. If you take what he is saying as gospel then you would be foolish to even buy stock for the present.

 Times have changed, when I was growing up a person with a mask and having a gun was always the bad guy.. Ah but now there telling me me that those masked guys are government agents ( whom we are told are the good guys).

Steve’s Barking: Smiling Faces πŸ˜€ Mudero in captivity.

  Am I the only crazy πŸ€ͺ one, but why does captive Venezuela’s president seem happy.
 Why was there so little casualties on the capture of Mudero on the American side and why does it seem like the only deaths were Cubans?
 Why does it appear that the only regime change is that Mudero is out of office and his vice president is.
 It appears to this crazy blogger that the kidnapping of Mudero was in inside job with a lot of help from the Russians and Mudero knew all along what was going to take place.
 Now one may ask if the Russian’s helped the Americans why are the Americans going after” Russians”“tankers carrying Venezuela crude after all my supposition is that Russia helped the Americans. 
 (1) It’s a rouge and the oil isn’t going anywhere and it makes it appear that the Russians didn’t help the Americans.
(2) It’s not Russian oil and the market for oil right now isn’t good.

Now the way Mudero looks calm and confident one can be suspicious that he knew all the time and his capture and that a foreign power is calling the shots.

Just saying….
Might be totally wrong but I’m suspicious 🀨 by nature.

Steve’s Barking; With friends like U.S. who needs enemies?

 The president of the United States wants Greenland.. He has said  that he may take it by force. Now I may not be the smartest or the most knowledgeable person, but I’m positive that Greenland is an ally of the United States and it’s a member of NATO. We have troops stationed there. So even though  the stated reason is the protection from Submarines the United States doesn’t need to rule or own  Greenland, It can place as many troops, radar, sonar or what ever it needs in it without being in possession of it.

 Does the United States need its minerals, private citizens can probably secure mining rights. The last I heard Greenland is a capitalist country.just like the United States.

 No there is no rationale for the United States to own Greenland except to destroy NATO ,  Perhaps the leadership of the United States a tool of its enemies?

The Threats to Canada is also a weakening of the United States to its allies. The enemies of the United States couldn’t have any better partner then the current administration in Washington!!!
