Heard him being interviewed by Glenn Beck.

Quote:Originally posted by second: Biden asks Congress for additional $33 billion in Ukraine aid U.S. lawmakers have indicated they’re ready to approve additional money, as there is bipartisan backing for Ukraine’s fight against Russia. New money would be on top of the $13.6 billion U.S. lawmakers authorized last month. Aid to Ukraine includes $20.4 billion in military and other security assistance, $8.5 billion in economic assistance and $3 billion in humanitarian assistance and food-security funding. Biden on Thursday weighed in on recent Russian rhetoric on the use of nuclear weapons. “No one should be making idle comments about the use of nuclear weapons. It’s irresponsible.” https://web.archive.org/web/20220428184953/https://www.marketwatch.com/story/biden-asks-congress-for-additional-33-billion-in-ukraine-aid-11651156208 The Joss Whedon script for Serenity, where Wash lives, is Serenity-190pages.pdf at https://www.mediafire.com/two

Why not take shallow breathes and only one small, low-calorie meal per day because you wish to conserve the Earth's precious resources? You might want to also stop taking showers more than once per week because bathing wastes energy to heat the water.

Quote:Originally posted by second: A full European ban on Russian oil is coming After weeks of reluctance over banning Russian oil imports, German officials today (Apr. 29) reversed course, agreeing to a gradual, EU-wide embargo. Other European countries have recently grown more amenable to such a ban as well, as Russia’s war on Ukraine has persisted.

Quote:What Can Be better Than Stealing? More stealing! LOL, Germany wants to expropriate Russia-owned refineries in Germany. Now, Poland wants the piece of the action too. As Poland desperately attempts to restore the flow of Russian gas to the country, its government has ordered Russian Novatek to hand over pipeline infrastructure or face legal action amounting to infrastructure expropriation. On Friday, a Polish government spokesman told the Associated Press that Russian Novatek Green Energy had been ordered to make its pipelines available to Polish companies and that failure to comply would mean legal action. Invoking crisis management laws, AP cited government spokesperson Piotr Mueller as saying that the fate of Novatek, Russia’s second-largest natural gas producer, “depends on whether this Russian firm, linked to Russia, will cooperate in the proper way …. whether the employees, acting on some instructions, will not be trying to block this process in some way”. But, wait a minute, it was Poland, if my memory doesn't fail me, who wanted spot-pricing initially, which drove prices through the stratosphere, and then Poland underscored at every opportunity her independence from Russian totalitarian gas. And now she is desperate. Oh my, such a Polish thing to do. Sure, let Poland cease [seize- SIGNY] the pipe-line, see what happens. Polish political top brass should recall a fundamental principle of any war, bet that hot, cold or merely economic. It reads like that: war is a very democratic affair--the enemy also has a say. Understanding this fundamental principle seems to escape the minds of EU "elites" and as the result each time they get slapped in the face by Russia they get hysterical and forget, in addition to other forgotten things, that normal governance, same as normal war-fighting, is done based on contingency planning. Russians do contingency planning 24/7 and the results are showing in the last 8 years.

Gas prices were already well over a dollar more per gallon than they were a year prior, before you were able to point out Ukraine on a map.I have been in the meetings where the price of fuel is decided. Politicians have no way of changing those prices, except in countries like Venezuela, Libya, Iran. By the way, those 3 countries are selling a gallon of gasoline for less than 20 cents. US Refineries could sell it that low, but why would they? The US government will have to nationalize the refineries and oil fields before that happens. It has happened before, during WWII prices were set by the Federal government, but not since. I am not worried or sorry that Americans can't understand how fuel prices are set, but that is your problem. I set prices, so tough luck for poor white trash who are buying fuel.

Quote:Originally posted by second: To get into the natural gas business, I explained to my Republican voting relatives how fuel prices are set. The relatives told me I was wrong-wrong-wrong because the President of the United States sets the prices indirectly. My relatives didn't know, and haven't learned since then, how fuel prices are set. I don't think they will ever understand, but because they didn't loan me money to start my business, they didn't get any of the profits. They think it is unfair, but I tell them if they are so smart about how the fuel business works (they still insist the President indirectly sets prices) why aren't they rich?
