This is not our war and the risk from entering it is far greater than any gain we will achieve. Like Serbia/Kosovo 1999 and Libya 2011, we would be much better off not fighting this war.<br /><br />Also, you said a dirty word: 'tariff'. Our free-trade ideology masks the fact that trade is never perfectly free anywhere and has never been. Every WTO country imposes tariffs, despite the free trade language they espouse.

I have repeatedly stated I don't know what exactly is happening; I don't think anybody else does either aside from the Russian and Ukrainian generals. My concern is not the Russian invasion; my concern is the national interest of the US. I want us to be independent as much as we possibly can be so that events such as this have a minimal impact upon us. I think we can do that.DiploMadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02316439950882822419noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1400985529434569506.post-3059275255928537252022-03-15T09:08:21.713-04:002022-03-15T09:08:21.713-04:00What is even more absurd with regard to the antibi...What is even more absurd with regard to the antibiotic situation is that this was identified by the Trump Administration as an issue in 2020.

(Both war crimes) It took the US over a month to reach and occupy Baghdad. Russia has already occupied an area of Ukraine substantially larger than all of Iraq. Also we have never stabilized our occupation of Iraq, despite 19 years of trying. Of course we never succeeded in anything in Somalia, despite 29 years of trying.<br /><br />Wait another two to four weeks to judge the Russian invasion.sykes.1https://www.blogger.com/profile/10954672321945289871noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1400985529434569506.post-59203424419469466912022-03-15T06:44:01.243-04:002022-03-15T06:44:01.243-04:00It is unfortunate that the "financialisation&...It is unfortunate that the "financialisation" of the economy has led many to discount the fundamental nature of manufacturing as the basis for all wealth and prosperity.<br />Without manufacturers making products for profitable sale at prices people consider good value, there is no wealth or prosperity.<br />The "financial industry" does not create wealth, it merely churns and concentrates it.<br /><br />And as the finance and marketing types take over advanced technology companies, they eventually crash and burn. <br />Boeing, for example. In the lead up to the 737 Max debacle, there was not a single engineer on Boeing's board, except for James Stavridis, whose job is to keep the Pentagon sweet, not engineering or product quality.LTExpathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10634678347770551591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1400985529434569506.post-40388885949061232482022-03-15T03:29:46.543-04:002022-03-15T03:29:46.543-04:00A most enjoyable post!

Is it all thanks to the efforts of ordinary Ukrainians -- or are they getting help? We should expect the fog of war, but what we are getting is almost like intravenous Goebbels.<br /><br />Yes, the US needs to rebuild our industrial base. First step towards that is rolling back excessive regulation, making sure that the benefits of the many fewer regulations we retain greatly exceed their costs. This will also release from government/NGO employment large numbers of people who will have to find genuine productive employment. We also need to cut Big Law down to size.<br /><br />However, we need to be realistic. Doing what needs to be done domestically will break a very large number of iron rice bowls. The situation will have to get much worse before there is a strong enough push to begin to make it better.<br /><br />Trying to be positive, the Biden* crew and the Deep State are doing everything they can to make things much worse for the US, and thereby accelerate the day when we finally start to turn things around.Gavin Longmuirnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1400985529434569506.post-49316967632095924602022-03-14T22:15:28.782-04:002022-03-14T22:15:28.782-04:00If you use a VPN and redirect it to a node in Hong...If you use a VPN and redirect it to a node in Hong Kong or India you will probably be able to connect to sites in Russia.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1400985529434569506.post-41434657671335593632022-03-14T20:30:53.172-04:002022-03-14T20:30:53.172-04:00The only thing that going to change the upper clas...The only thing that going to change the upper class left is for this idiocy to finally be bad enough that they feel the effects.
