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.

Has the desire to talk politics on this board gotten a bit out of control? It started off with a legitimate point which is that investments in this environment are hard to discuss without talking about tariff policy, investor confidence in the rule of law, and deficit impact on rates. But it feels like its gotten away from that and into more personal attacks.

Maybe now is a good time to ask people to move the discussion to the appropriate boards and to exercise self restraint in their posts / counter posts so that the BOD can be cleared of some of the "message traffic" on the political threads in advance of the annual meeting. That should give us all something to discuss that returns the center of conversation to BRK related business analysis.
