The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Usually yes, because Club 401K enables it.

No, not just taking credit for BIDEN infrastructure projects they opposed.

No, not just for enjoying s supply chain in the future, after kicking and screaming to support the Biden CHIPS act.

But now, ACA.

Republican leadership has wanted to gut Obamacare forever.

Now they are trying to not have a vote but *some* Republicans want a vote because they know their asses will have to get a real job otherwise. And Democrats stand ready to help.

So it is possible - Democrats will help Republicans pass an extension to ACA enhanced credits ---thus helping a few Republicans maybe hold on to their seats.

Hat Tip to Democrats for bipartisanship and putting the American people first.

Because this - was a surefire way to having more than a slim majority in the House next year. Because this would save Republicans from themselves.
