Steve’s Barking; Who cares what Netanyahu says?

 Now my understanding is that Israeli, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said there wouldn’t be a Palestinian State. The only problem with that is it’s not his right to say that. If the “Palestinians want a state in Gaza or the West Bank or both they do not have to get Israel’s permission. Does Taiwan exist, are there two Koreas?

 Now I don’t believe that the Gaza's population or the West Bankers what those  areas for a country but if they did they don’t need Israels permission. 

 In some way those areas are a de facto states anyway. But of cause the Prime Minister of Israel wants to give the enemy of Israel ammunition against his country. What a clown 🀑.

Steve’s Barking; Congress people say pay πŸ’° me more

 Ya know congress hasn’t had a raise in 14 years and my goodness inflation has been going through the roof. Things are so bad there are congress person who call πŸ“ž for decrease in government spending are leaving congress for the pays not enough. It may seem odd ( well it does for me) that there are so many congressional members are in the top 1% in wealth would need a raise. Now even a senator who complains about the wealthy not paying their fair share says she needs a raise. 
 Now I understand that the congress people have two homes, one ☝️ in there district and one in the swamp known as Washington DC (. Not to get confused 😐 with the state). Wellll instead of give nag them a raise for housing maybe πŸ€” we should build barracks for them to live in while they make believe that they are doing the right thing for the American πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ people. 
 What about giving these people a housing stipend (that can be stollen or at least misused).

 You can’t argue with the truth except when your truth is my fiction or when my truth is your fiction.

Steve’s Barking; Is Howard better then Harvard? πŸ€”

 For Black Americans is Howard better then Harvard? The real question is the Ivy League better than the top HBC s for most African Americans? There was a resent survey that showed that African American that went to top HBCs were more likely to go higher up the corporate ladder then those who attended Ivy League universities. 
 There has also been a suggestion that their is an elitist mentality among black students whose family had graduated these Ivy League schools or at least black students who parents were professionals then those black students who came from an impoverished family. There is also a sentiment among  black professors that of an elite mentality of those who came from privileged class against those who were from impoverished backgrounds. 
 One of the problems for black students is self imposed segregation were they don’t get to mingle with the elite white students whose parents can help then move up the corporate ladder and the more prestigious firms.
It appears that impoverishment in childhood is not a issue at HBCs.

Steve’s Barking; ADP Jobs report vs labor department’s job report for Dec 2023

 ADP’s job report states that 164,000 jobs were created in Dec of 2023.
 The labor department reports that 216, 000 jobs were created in Dec of 2023.
 That’s a discrepancy of 52,000 new jobs..
 Is that a statistically even or a major discrepancy?

Steve’s Barking; Hidden figures Taragi Henderson

 Taragi Henderson stated in an interview that she is underpaid as an actress. Especial compared to White actresses, and especially to white actors. Her clam that she made only $ 35,000 for her roll in the Color Purple…Now the insinuation is That she made a lot less than if she was a white actress. Now to of the four producers of this movie are African American ..and the director is African American…I kind f guess they didn’t slight themselves. What isn’t brought put in the interview was what her costars who also happen to be black actresses got for their performances in this picture for without their amount paid one can not tell if Taragi was underpaid because she is a black actress or not..

 Maybe Taragi shouldn’t have made this move, but I’m sure she has representatives who help negotiate deals.

 There are other strange money things that came out as Oprah stating that she made only $35,000 when she was n the original Color Purple. Well that would be over $100,000 today. As an actress is was an unknown quantity.

 Now the cast of Hidden Figures the black actresses maybe shouldn’t have gotten more the Kevin Cosner who was a known quantity but they ( in my mind) should have gotten much more the Jim Parsons, for the whole movie was about them…No I do not know the pay check of anyone connected to the movie..or for that matter the New Musical Color Purple.

 * The whole purpose of this exercise is to point out that one should not jump to conclusions.
