    Thank you, I didn't know that.

    And are the easier to make and maintain? Meaning that we now have many more missiles that can carry nuclear devastation to our cities and world?

    Lovely.

    Why do you want to kill Russians? Sounds very Nazi like to me. What have they done to you, or for that matter to any of us?

    The only thing we have to deal with is Soros and the liberal ideologues in Washington. Aren't they the ones who are destroying our social structure, foreign relations, sovereignty and Constitution?

    This land we love so mightily,
    should not be handed readily,

    to selfish men with hearts of stone,
    who carest only for their own.

    And who will come so angrily
    to tellest us so blatantly

    that we should never dare to stray.
    For only they should have a say.

    And that we not do as we please,
    while forcing us upon our knees,

    to worship gods of lust and greed.
    And things that we can never heed.

    Now these are things we did not choose.
    And freedoms something we can't lose.

    To liberal laws and swords so cruel

    and brandished 'bout by those who rule.

    -Jeannette

    You have surmized correctly - The point of the short and intermediate range treaties was to not make short -intermediate range cruise missiles. - of the nuclear variety. The idea being .. just way too easy .. ICBM's are not easy to make . a different league -- making a ballistic of that level. "Cruise missiles" ? .. tiny .. easy to hide .. it is not like lauching a rocket taking a satelite into space. Could put a bunch of these on a container ship

    but .. since we pushed Russia into violating the treaty -- we now have them making these puppies -- and I assume we are making them now too.. so .. even prior to hypersonics we were marching towards making it easier and easier to annihilate each other... another problem is that this technology is proliferating to other nations

    and now hypersonics .. maybe soon we can put nukes in space .. wouldnt' that ramp up the hair drigger .. knowing there were nukes above our heads .. just a few minutes away... you could see them on the one of the star aps for your phone .. "Look Mommy"

    I am thinking sooner.. The Oceans are not likely to go another 25 years - without catestrophic damage ... at the rate of industrialization of the last 25 years. Taking us from 1.4 Billion to 2 Billion industrialized. - 6 Billion left to go.. and adding another 2 Billion to 10 Billion souls by 2050.

    Biden-Blue - first world nation in general enviro policy is "Not in my back Yard - Dump it in the Ocean" - and red just doesn't care so no hope for relief on the horizon. .. nor for CO2 for that matter.. Industrialization over last 25 years was responsible for the increase from 22Billion tons/year to 36 Billion tons/year .. and its still rising mate.. this is despite the fact that the first world decreased over this time period.

    Fished out the Oceans pretty much with 2 Billion consumers .. those other 6 Billion want some fish too !

    The battle over scare resources will get out of control in the next 25 years.. continuing same as it ever was....and the Ocean gonna suffer.

    I figure an Earth properly in order could support a population of 20 billion or more.

    Thats nice - but as usual you have no basis for your claim - have done no calculations - have no idea what would be required to sustain such a population - zero clue as to what the biproducts of consumption from such a population would be - and no idea whether or not such a population level would be desirable - on the basis of putting almost no thought into the issue.

    Since we don't have much socialism, your claim doesn't have credibility.

    The real reason? The Soviet economy fell apart. Why? Because collective ownership doesn't work at the nation state level.

    No, invading would be stupid, but that doesn't mean they won't. We got into a no-win Asian land war war in Vietnam and that was really dumb. Didn't stop us, however.

    The Soviet Union gave people free education, including higher education. The Soviet Union gave people free healthcare of any complexity. The USSR gave many tens of millions of people FREE housing, confidence in the future, lack of unemployment ... and much more.
    What did the priests give to people? What did Jesus give people? What did the Russian a psychopath tsar give people?
    Tsar was a psychopath in the literal, medical sense. Only a complete villain and a psychopath can kill cats, crows and dogs for pleasure. And only a psychopath can go to a ball to the French ambassador, a few hours after thousands of his subjects died at his coronation.
    And tell me what I wrote wrong? If, of course, you have real arguments.

    That's how the ideologues think and since to them the end justifies the means and the earth cannot support more than a limited amount of people, then why not let them die off with wars, sanctions, disease, and famine?


    I personally believe that anyone who is indifferent to human lives and welfare is a sociopath and therefore morally unfit to be the decisive factor in anything - never the less what is best for humanity.

    Their hubris overwhelms me.

    Take that you fools of misery.
    For we the gods of lofty see,
    look down at you from our great height
    and snicker at the motley sight
    of lesser beings, not as bright as we.


    Our wealth has proved that we are wise,
    for we had delved in tricks and lies,
    so we can rule your land and State
    and become masters of your fate.


    So tell us now you lowly fools
    who followed banal moral rules
    what have you gained but tears and pain?

    While we had turned to ancient rites
    of effete men begetting strife,

    with pagan rules and flagrant life.

    That's why we reign now in our height

    and not on earth, but in our stead
    of hubris and of bloated head.

    - Jeannette

    Biden is giving them a lot of money?

    Anyway, socialism is collectivized production, not handing people money.

    Biden is compensating people for Trump's cruel and illegal program of separating refugees from their children. Trump should be the one who pays from his personal fortune. He should also be on trial for it in the Hague but baby steps.

    Socialism is anything conservatives dislike, according to conservatives. The only thing worse is communism and that engenders Nazism to oppose it, which is just misunderstood

    Why? You can't leave children with criminals whether those criminals are their parents or not.

    Most of the people so victimized were not criminals but legitimate refugees our country was obliged to accept by Treaty. The government had no real case to detain them but took it anyway.

    Shouldn't be that hard to do, if it is worth it.
