Negotiating

I am encouraged as America begins to awaken in two important areas. First off there are more and more articles explaining the advantages of nuclear power. As this door opens the door to wind and solar will be relegated to the position of helping nuclear instead of replacing nuclear. The second is the realization that the sensible way out of Ukraine is negotiating a peace agreement. Just as happened in Vietnam and Afghanistan the US is creeping toward a larger conflict. It started with small arms and morphed into rockets, tanks and most recently talk of F-16's. The latest news indicates that China may get more actively involved by sending arms to Russia. The people in power in Washington are all aligned to continue the war and it will take the people in the country to rise up and force negotiating. Support among Americans for providing military aid to Ukraine has fallen to 58 percent, according to a new Reuters/Ipsos survey of more than 4,000 Americans, conducted from Feb. 6 to Feb 13, a drop from the 73% who said they backed the transfer of weapons in an April 2022 poll. If the polls continue this way it will begin to affect the upcoming elections and perhaps this will wake up the politicians.
