Our main venue, BRIC House, offers a public media center, a major contemporary art exhibition space, two performance spaces, a glass-walled TV studio, and artist work spaces. I guess you mean like how we didn't put up with Cuba becoming a communist country and being a puppet of the Soviet Union for 50+ years. Is there anything you are not completely ignorant about?Stop Tzar Vladimir the Condemned!

In all of Russian history there were only a couple way to retire a Czar. A blade or a bullet. It is well past time for Putin to go.

This is just weird.
I guess you forgot about the Russians annexing Crimea, in March 2014.Stop Tzar Vladimir the Condemned!

News reporting about Ukraine almost always mentions whatever weapons are being sent and the weapons Ukraine is requesting and it got me wondering...
Are there huge stockpiles in the U.S. of Patriot Missiles, and tanks and fighter jets sitting around in warehouses waiting to fill orders domestically and abroad? I thought the last couple generations of fighter jets are hand made and take 18 months to build and cost a billion dollars? Or is it more like the President, or Congress, or the Pentagon says, "We're going to supply these." and then they send an order for X number of tanks, etc. to the manufacturer, and then the manufacturer contacts all their suppliers and order the parts and then?...Stop Tzar Vladimir the Condemned!

The US has only been ordering enough ammunition to replace training rounds so now there are only about 5 defense contractors and only one supply line for each thing needed. This means there are inadequate stockpiles for a real defense and no way to rapidly build up the production capacity. The same thing that the pandemic showed us...American policy is to never be prepared for anything and then just deny that the crisis exists and pretend that you fixed everything. It's sad when half of a society gets dementia.Stop Tzar Vladimir the Condemned!

I figure it's like donating to a food bank. Get rid of the stock you need least and replace if absolutely necessary. Yeah, that makes sense, plus in theory, you know the used stuff works.
I don't think anyone would be surprised if the US military has surplus. Well, $780 billion a year buys a lot of stuff, even after salaries.Stop Tzar Vladimir the Condemned!

Phat in Message 1002 writes: BRICS in 2024 is gearing up to do exactly what Russia alone could never do and which we instigated by weaponizing the dollar. Thanks for letting me know, but I'm curious why you decided to post a contentless comment on this old post. You seem to spend your life running around yelling "the sky is falling" about a hundred different threats you fear will collapse the U.S. economy.
and which we instigated by weaponizing the dollar. Can you explain specifically what U.S. policy you are referring to by "weaponizing the dollar?" And just what specifically is BRICS doing to "gear up" and just what exactly are they planning to do that Russia could never do? And just exactly when did they start sharing their world domination plans with you?Stop Tzar Vladimir the Condemned!

Phat in Message 1007 writes: Tanypteryx in Message 1005 writes: Sanctions. That, and Janet Yellin globetrotting around the planet warning even China about possible sanctions. We are losing the economic war. The Patriots just dont see it yet. Can you explain specifically what U.S. policy you are referring to by "weaponizing the dollar?" OK, well, sanctions don't seem to have any impact on Russian or Chinese behavior that I can see. What specific signs show we are losing an economic war? You seem to ignore that global trade is a chaotic/dynamic system with hundreds of nations and tens of thousands of corporations engaged in millions of negotiations and that none of those entities want the U.S. to stop buying their stuff.
Unite. It may well be a loose alliance at this point, but the plan is to free themselves from the US Dollar. That is why I said that we shot the dollar in the head and "it" is still bleeding. Sorry, I don't see how we shot the dollar in the head and I see no signs that of the damage you refer to. In what specific way is the U.S. damaged if some nations don't want to use the dollar. If they want to stop trading with the U.S. that will damage their economy far more than ours. What possible benefits does the BRICS Consortium offer that exceed continuing to use the U.S. dollar for trade?
It does not take a rocket scientist...wake up and connect the data. Rocket scientists are not economists so they have no relevance to the discussion, and your dots are not connected to any actual data that you have shown us.
I dont want to cause you or any of the peanut gallery any sleepless nights. I doubt that anyone is losing sleep over your worries.
I wish I could have gone on your ecliptic road trip! It sounded like fun. It has been fun! We visited White Sands National Park yesterday with our grandson and his family and laughed at attempts to get our 10 month old great-grandson to keep his sunglasses on even though his eyes were shut tight against the glare without them. Trying to get through metropolitan cities on the freeways was absolutely nightmarish, with Kansas City taking the grand prize for the most fucking scariest freeway experience of the whole trip...so far! Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument is the next place we are headed on Tuesday and then booking it for home, since I have a photo deadline coming up on April 30.Stop Tzar Vladimir the Condemned!
