Thank you so much for explaining this. It is difficult for those of us who were raised in the democratic countries to understand this Russian perspective because we naturally see things through with our own biases that we grew up with.

terr, can you comment for us please on what effect, if any, easier access to non-censored news by Young Russian Men who have left Russia might be having on Putin's ability to continue the war and on political stability within Russia. I am assuming that those who have left Russia to avoid...

In that still photo of Fiore it is not possible to tell for sure whether she is chewing gum because she uncharacteristically has her mouth closed, but I would guess she is.

On the contrary, duration is implied.

You got my vote. So that's two votes already. You're off to a flying start!

Nice. I like your thinking here very much, and a very strong and logical case can be made for exactly what you suggest in the way of altering primary and secondary education funding. But, of course, you'll have little chance of getting yourself elected with well considered and logical proposals...

Y'all need to get used to ms Stacy. She's amazing! You'll be seeing much more of her in the years to come. She's the real star of the Georgia politicians. Super smart, well educated, and very articulate. I wouldn't want to try and guess what she'll tackle next but with her charisma and...

Bahamas. Ha ha ha, what else would you expect? Anyone been there? I have. I sailed there from Key West with buddies once. Once was enough for a lifetime, no need to go back, though I've heard the outer, more British-like ,islands were ok.

Helpful tip. Brooks' first book was accidentally printed upside down and backwards. It is easier to read if you turn it upside down then randomly cross out every two words out of three, and then read it from the last page to the first.

The Fed has been steadily raising rates and will probably push the economy into recession by late next year if not sooner.. That will cool inflation! However there are other thing that should have been done, and still could be. Number one would be to cancel the Trump tariffs. Could have been...

For being a JACKASS. I am against the death penalty, but for Trump I'd make an exception.

it would appear Trump is headed toward what seems to be virtually certain criminal indictment. His only hope would be delay. Perhaps a flare up of the old bone spurs will leave him bedridden howling in excruciating pain. Even as president there was no law that would protect him from...

So you cheated on your taxes. Bad decision. The IRS will be sending you a letter.

As an NYT subscriber, and in the interest of world peace, I have taken the liberty of posting verbatim this guest opinion published today in the NYT. It is as though I wrote it myself. From today's New York Times: Opinion Guest Essay This Is What Victory for Ukraine Looks Like Nov. 9, 2022...

The U.S. prints the principle and spends it into the economy before it issues the bond.* In other words, the U.S. doesn't borrow money from the economy and replace it with a bond as it would be doing in conventional borrowing. Actually, no country that does not issue bonds denominated in...

You will all see this from a different perspective once you realize that the U.S. does not borrow even though Treasury bonds do represent Government liabilities just as U.S. Currency does. Treasuries serve an entirely different purpose than that of borrowing. To the extent that the U.S. dollar...

Russia will fight a war of attrition, Putin has little concern for Russian lives. Ukraine can not win a war of attrition. The pace of the war needs to be stepped up in the Spring. In the meantime the West needs to give Ukraine the weapons and training needed to quickly bring the Russians to...

Certainly there are times when this would be an appropriate observation. What I was referring to in my comment regarding the article about Forbes was the reporters remark: "Forbes suggested using gold to stabilize currencies — for example, tying the U.S. dollar to gold so the dollar has a...

Forbes must be senile. This is insanity.
