The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", sykesix asked the members: "What do you do if you arrive early at movie besides go to the snack bar?" 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.

Or, rather, "still".

Except we're well beyond the 90 day limit. So, if albaby is correct and Congress isn't funding this, where's the money coming from for the continued hostilities? Albaby asserted that if Congress doesn't release money, it can't go on (as I understood him). Well....???

Meanwhile, the Felon is threatening to seize Kharg Island.

IMO, we should just give up on using the Strait ever again. It will be cheaper (and less susceptible to disruption) if we find a way around the Strait. Big Business won't like it. Either pay the Iranians extortion, continue to waste our expensive missiles, or find a way around. I hate the first two options, so that leaves option 3 (which isn't ideal either, but better than the other two).
