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.

They'd be a PLUS for America. They'd work hard. They'd be fiscally responsible. Their net worth wouldn't be spent on hairstyles and births out of wedlock. They'd pay taxes, Federal State and FICA. They would be upwardly mobile.


Ditto Ukrainians - -sadly, America is too stupid and too politically correct.....but a whole bunch of immigrants - selected PROPERLY.....would've assuaged your economic problems far better than rate hikes. And you would've have had to lose a bank or two in the process.


And getting this done..... again, for people able to think in reality - would've been MUCH EASIER politically compared to immigration debates of yesterday.
