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.

{{ The point was rather obvious but let me clarify: republicans are quick to condemn "the Biden family" for questionable financial dealings -- although they could never prove president Biden took as much as a nickel, as albaby1 explained ... }}

The Biden Family have been major players in two of the most rapacious industries that have hollowed up the middle-class. As the "Senator from MBNA", Joe Biden worked hard to legalize usury in the credit card industry. Lobbyist brother James Biden has successfully traded on the family name to privatize the health care industry and leave us with the expensive and dysfunctional system we have today.

I'll be relieved when the Bidens join the Bushes far from the center of power.

For what it's worth, I wrote in Bernie's name on the ballot in 2020, but I did vote for Trump in 2016 to reward him for the masterful job he did on Ted Cruz and Hillary.
