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.

If "America" is thinking that (and I don't think most of us are), then America is pretty damn dumb.

I have sadly come to the realization that much of the US is indeed pretty damn dumb. Too dumb and disconnected to keep a democracy I’m afraid. A pretty big percentage (30%?) of our citizens are full on brainwashed MAGA followers who are all in on autocracy for whatever sad/stupid reason. But the bigger percentage are the people who just don’t know what’s going on politically, who “don’t do politics” as they say. They are too busy making money and living their lives apparantly and have ignored politics largely for decades, other than voting every four years (without much thought) in their designated party. This is how we get these crazy leaders that we have now.
