It does interest me that some people can condemn Ukraine for being corrupt and the praise Russia., apparently not noticing the corruption there. I wonder if they really think that Russia is not corrupt, or are they just cynically looking for any excuse to advance their cause.

Dubya's father was in the same class at Andover as my father was, and Dubya's father was smart. Dubya, on the other hand ... had his work done for him at Yale, and I knew the guy who did the lion's share of it. Dubya is as dumb as a fence post, that's why he had Cheney to run things.

Men continue to stay out of the labor force. Now with anything associated with whiteness denigrated , we are destined to lose those contributions. Recovery seems hopeless if we fail to expand the workforce. By denying access by much of its potential workforce the US fails unless a substitute is found.

Our domestic supply of working age adults seem disinclined to work, many living well from our expanding welfare state.

I wonder, is the rationale for leaving our southern border open an effort to import a new labor force? Perhaps. But on Grahams point, whites are out thus creating a growing void of working adults and making it clean, white is the problem. Is black and brown the answer?

For the elite classes, masses of black and brown people are easier to manipulate and control as well as making a good servant class. All the while they spout anti racist mantras.

Yo vivió seis meses en BA, año 1980, y tenia una novia. De acuerdo. Ellas son por lo mayor parte blancas. Como nosotros.

A nice essay about the duplicity of corruption that surrounds the political class - everywhere. As an argument for leaving Ukraine twisting in the wind, not particular good.

The US is ramping up production of war materiel. Might be useful as a warning to China.
