Steve’s Barking; Trump and that golf course🏌🏿‍♂️ in the Bronx

 The Trump organization runs the ⛳️ course in Bronx NY. 

 As far as I know the know it’s a wonderful ⛳️  course.

 As far as I know the organization pays it bills 💸 to the city on time

 Now I understand that the mayor is 😠 with Trump because of January 6th.

 My humble opinion that’s tough 💩💩. The Trump organization didn’t break the contract, it appears to this layman’s  👀  that the city is wrong!!! I’ve been told that this country 🇺🇸 is a nation of laws, and that includes contract law. It a appears through my 👀 that the mayor wants the city to be a contract  lawbreaker.

Steve’s Barking; To 💉vac or not to 💉vac, that is the question

 Whether it is nobler in the mind to Vaccinate or not to vaccinate.

 New York City is one of the few places that demands its workers to vaccinate or stay home without pay 💰 

 Now I’m retired and I’m vaccinated 💉so it makes no difference to me. 

 Now I fight for the right of businesses to demand that it’s employees be vaccinated and that government interference is communistic. That being written I can’t help but wonder if Mayor the De Blasio is right in demanding that all city workers be vaccinated 💉when there is a labor shortage in all departments of city government.

 I understand that it’s one ☝️ of the mayors job to keep the city health, and being vaccinated💉lessons the chance of catching Covid 19 and it even lessons the chances of dying but by how much. Think 🤔 of all those Yankees who couldn’t play a significant amount of games because they had Covid even after being vaccinated. And what about General Powell who died from Covid even though he was vaccinated.

 Now I may believe in being vaccinated💉but I know of several people with much higher IQ then I have, who don’t want to be vaccinated 💉and actually believe that it might be harmful to them.

 Getting back to my original thought how wise is it to insist that all city workers be vaccinated?

 *** The vaccinations question is just as a divisive in the United States 🇺🇸 as The Donald. One ☝️ would be surprised 😮 as to how many Democrats don’t want to be vaccinated 💉!

*** Is the New York City mayor a mirror image of Tex governor Abbot, only instead of calling him a communist we’ll call 📞 him a fascist dictator.

 

Steve’s Barking; The death ☠️ of American conservatism

 In the beginning of the United States 🇺🇸 the original conservatives believed in a strong centralized government ( Hamilton and Adams, Washington among them). If you were to ask the modern Americans who call 📞 call themselves conservatives they wouldn’t agree. Those original conservatives believed in a very heavy tax code( Real estate and liquor 🥃 taxes the chief taxes).

 The late ⏰ 19th century Americans who 📞 themselves conservatives would be appalled 🤯 of the interference of business by those who call 📞 themselves conservatives.

 In the beginning of the 20th century the conservative movement was anti large military 🪖though the original American 🇺🇸 conservatives were just the opposite. The newer conservatives are for a large and stronger 🦾military 🪖.

 Those who call 📞 themselves conservatives today have a problem with collecting taxes. It’s as almost 😅 they don’t want taxes to be collected as they refuse to adequately fund the IRS. And they call 📞 that being a conservative🤔🤷.

 They tell businesses how to run their businesses ( as if their businesses were part of government ( think 🤔 Twitter, Facebook and Google) must carry their nonsense 😝)

 Those who call 📞 themselves conservatives are telling  businesses that they can’t insist on vaccinations 💉of employees and can’t insist on masks 😷. Texas  conservatives are even acting like the old communist GDP in encouraging citizens to rat 🐀 on each other in their abortion law.

 In my humble opinion this this is further proof that conservatism is dying if not dead ☠️ in America.

*** Barry Goldwater whom some called the father of modern conservatism believed in abortion rights, integration ( though not federal government mandate) and women’s right.

  

*** Richard Nixon opened the door to 🇨🇳, Affirmative action, permanent cola for Social Security.

Steve’s Barking; Americans are leaving their jobs in record number or not?

 I keep hearing and reading that Americans are leaving their jobs. 

 Well I hope that they have a better job lined up, hell if I had a great job and a better employer or much higher salary I’d give my two weeks notice and leave too. Unfortunately that not what the headlines are screaming, no the headlines are screaming that employees are feed up and their not going to hang around.

Now there is no indication how these employees are going to pay their rent. Buy their food. Go out and have a grand old time without income coming in. Perhaps these employees saved up big time during the pandemic and don’t have to work for a while. Perhaps these people who just got up and quite decided that living in the street and pan handling was the life for them. 

Now I’m writing this gobble gook because it makes no sense to me, there is no unemployment insurance, no welfare state giving money to people who just got up and left their jobs.Why are people leaving their jobs unless they are ready to retire and yes they can, and are exhausted and just said time to retire by, by to work.

* Maybe I’m missing something but why are Americans really retiring?

Steve’s Barking; Can anybody understand this inflated economy 🤷

 We’re in an inflationary period in America and in Europe. Of cause the prestigious(?) know it all’s from the prestigious university are saying the Federal Reserve tighten monetary policy even though this inflationary period is supply side inflation. This (meaning me) know it all says that if you really want runaway inflation tighten the money supply. Too many (perhaps up to one quarter) of business are able to stay in business due to the fact of cheap money. Now as I do recall from economics 101 too few businesses mean too few products to be sold, inflation would then go up. 

Now I do recall stagflation, and if I am right about tightening the money supply the stagflation of old would look like a mole hill compared to the mountain of problems that would happen including a deep recession with a staggering inflation. Can anybody say Argentina, perhaps Brazil. 

Steve’s Barking; Why The discrepancy in the jobs report for September?🤔

 The department of labor jobs report for September shows 194,000 new jobs. Now if I’m not mistaken they get their information from a telephone ☎️ survey of employers.

 ADP reports that was September new jobs in the civilian workforce was 568,000. Now if I’m not mistaken they also get their information from a telephone survey of employers.

 Now if they both get their inform from telephone ☎️ surveys why the huge discrepancy?

 Now as far as I can tell none, zero, zilch news reporting (  conservative, liberal, honest and dishonest) questioned this mountainous discrepancy!

 * Can jobs reports be trusted?

** Are Trump appointments fudging the job reports from the department of labor?

*** Wouldn’t the IRS collecting of payroll taxes be a better indicator ( I know wouldn’t do for our instant gratification).

🤷 Why is ADP report 3X as many jobs as the department of labor. That’s an extremely troublesome figure.

Steve’s Barking; Let Mexico 🇲🇽 and Mexicans help

 Cargo ships 🚢 are out in the ocean 🌊 waiting to drop off their cargo in California ports because their are enough(pick your reason) drivers to to take the cargo on trucks, not enough trucks, not enough dock workers to unload the cargo. Now the 6 trillion dollar 💵 question is are their enough truck, truckers , dock worker and space at ports south and north of the border to alleviate the bottlenecks that have brought about bending my inflation in clothing, furniture 🪑 and the most essential item for the Christmas season, 🧸 toys. Even giving foreign workers temporary visas to drive the goods to market.

(1) I don’t know 🤷 if Mexico and Canada 🇨🇦 have the workers and the ports to alleviate the bottle necks at US ports.

(2) If they have the ability  does 🇺🇸 have the smarts To ask our neighbors for help and to pay these foreign workers (truck drivers)if they come to the United States.
