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.

"There is now an irrational idiot in the White House!"
Yes, for the 47'th time since the USA was born. Hah!


To keep it a tiny less political, let’s just call Trump a transformative president. But Ray, given the list of things I mentioned, wouldn’t you say he is more transformative than most of our recent presidents.
1. Shutting down USAID
2. Trying to close the Dept. of education
3. Cutting of funding to major universities.
4. Firing masses of Federal workers
5. Threatening to invade Greenland and Panama
6. Talking about making Canada the 51st state
7. Saying Ukraine invaded Russia when obviously that is not true
8. Imposing larger tariffs than the Smoot Hawley tariffs, but exempting Russia
9. Arresting international students
10. Talking about firing the Fed Chairman in the middle of his term
