Steve’s Barking:Another crazy ideas for an armistice in the Russo Ukraine conflict

 Ah yes this crazy blogger has a couple of  off the wall ideas to have an armistice between Russia and Ukraine.
 (1) Why not have Crimea be a sovereign country for at least ten years with free trade between both Russia and Ukraine.
 (2) Have a free trade agreement between Russia and Ukraine.
 (3) Ukraine can join the EU for trade and monetary reasons but would not join NATO nor any military alliances.
 (4) Russia can use Odessa as a port and the Black Sea as a an open water way.
(5) The land area should belong to each country as before the conflict.
 (6) A non aggression pact should be signed.
 (7) 10 Years after the Armistice there should be a plebiscite as to if the Eastern Ukraine wants to stay with Ukraine or join Russia.

* Just another crazy suggestion by this foolish blogger.

Steve’s Barking; How China can weather the storm

 There is a major down turn in factory production in China because of American tariffs. Well because China is a so called* communist country it can pay its laid  off workers enough to survive and to buy internal goods without worrying too much about outside forces. As far as goods that it receives  from the U.S. such as food stuff it can buy that in trade with other countries while eventually selling much of the excess goods it produces in the long run.

* The People’s Republic of China is as much of a capitalist country as most European countries and the US with private ownership.

Steve’s Barking; Question, why didn’t the Neanderthals live a longer life’?

 Scientists tells us the Neanderthals lived a very short time, the average age of the Neanderthals lived to 35, and we in the most model societies  live almost to our 80s. Now the Neanderthals did have the modern stress that we have now, they ate healthier, all natural food with no preservatives.


* I really wish I didn’t have to say I’m joking, but I don’t know if the three people who read my blog all take it seriously

Steve’s Barking:It looks like Russia won the war with the U.S. without firing a shot

  I maybe crazy but we’re I’m sitting it appears that Russia has infiltrated the US, even as far as the presidency. They are dancing in the streets in the Kremlin figuratively because the president of the United States and VP are doing their best to give the Kremlin everything it wants . Telling Ukraine that it has to give to Russia all the area that it took when it invaded. It is telling Greenland to become part of the U.S. or at least a be Owen by the U.S., stating that we needed it for our protection against China ( I’m trying to figure that one out and Russia even though it part of the Netherlands (which is in NATO) and we have troops there. Now these crazy blogger thinks the only country that the U.S. owning Greenland is Russia. Now I’ve been told that the only country not having additional tariffs on it is Russia, hmmm , strange things are happening,. The old nemesis of the United States is turning into its closest ally., though it may not seem so right away.

 The problem for Russia and the U.S. is that because of Tarrifs the rest and the threatening of the several countries the rest of the world will in all likelihood have to have new trade alliances and military alliances weakening the U.S. and Russia.

 It would not surprise this nut in the next year or two the Peoples Republic of China and Taiwan  come to some sort of an agreement.

 It would not surprise me if  the infiltration of the US by Russia blows up in Russia’s face , and it would only make the U.S. not a power but a weak link.

Steve’s Barking; Does Hamas really care about the Palestinians?

 It doesn’t take much to understand that Hamas ( or its allies) are holding kidnapped hostages and that Israel is going to continue annihilate the people of Gaza. If I’m not correct and if the holding of Israeli hostages is not a power a play and that Hamas true cares about the Palestinians in Gaza why isn’t there negotiations to end the death and destruction in Gaza to free the hostages and return the bodies of the dead hostages to Israel?

 * Does Hamas hold all the hostages?
 * Is there a power play among various Palestinian factions or Muslim groups?
 
** Would Israeli response to the cutting off of arms free from the rest of the world to them be more violent then what we see now?

Steve’s Barking: Dems say give me money, that’s what I want!

 The best things in life are free but youn can give them to the birds and bees, give me money, that’s what I want. (Beatles)

 Looking at my inbox I see the please, please, please, give me money. No matter who in the Democratic Party sends me an E-mail and all the Email  ask for money. They may say that they want my opinion , but my opinion is no good unless I send them money.  A lot of the E-mail ask direct for money to fight the Republican  agenda, as though the money I send them is going to do any good in fighting the Republicans. Some ask for money direct to fight the Republican opponent that has not been chosen yet. And of cause I get E-mails from candidates far and wide who are running for office and the only thing they tell me about themselves is that they need the money to fight the Republicans not saying that they have a Democratic opponent. 
 Ah but if you think that I get request from Democrats only for money think again, I have have received several request in the mail (regular) for money from a conservative Republican whom I will not give his name.

 The past presidential race the Democrats had a quarter more  dollars then the Republicans, and if you include dark money the Democrats still had more money then the Republicans.
