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.

OK, both sides can play that game.

No, left wingers unwilling to tell their pollies to forego granting citizenship to all so some progress can be made.


But it isn't a game, is it? We don't want citizenship for ALL. The Sierra club had a split over something similar.
Most of us don't mind granting asylum for those worthy, but we don't want everyone coming across the border. We do want
to be humane, which is something not regarded highly by Republicans.

You won't tell your pollies to fix it, and make the compromises to fix it. You seem to think compromise is some type of failure - it isn't.
I'm used to not getting what I want, but I would like something to happen and it looks like current crop of Republicans can't make compromises because they are afraid of their constituents. Helluva way to run a country.
