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.

On TMF - I used to say specifically that Republicans and Democrats, eager for "free trade", WTO, and PNTR with China, are sellouts to China and that China - will suck up American tech, knowhow, systems, and then use their huge labor pool to basically copy our homework. And I wrote - in the meantime our middle lass will suffer, while their middle lass grows, their arsenal grows, and their infrastructure improves ----all thanks to the USA.

Supposedly, Lenin said words to the effect "when it comes time to hang all the capitalists, they will sell us the rope". Whether he said it or not, it certainly is true. "JCs" are so obsessed with sticking more cash in their pocket, NOW, they will sell out anyone. And now, we are living the consequences.
