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.

Trump didn’t just take $40 billion of taxpayer money and give it to Argentina with no legal process.
He gave away $40 billion of Americans’ money and it didn’t even work...

Classic Trump!

"The American intervention to prop up the Argentinian peso has failed.
Despite the United States intervening the Argentine peso lost 10% of its value in the first two weeks of October, pushing the overnight interest rate to 157%."

"Global and domestic Argentinian investors are expecting another devaluation, which would only add to threat of inflation that had reached 285% in March 2024 and has declined to 32% in September."

Crazy idea, Instead of Argentina, how about we bail out America first?
