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.

Supposedly the criteria was moochers, who would end up taking benefits.

It's a weird list.

Many nations - have diaspora that aren't mooches but rather, unlike 401K'ers and especially unlike the 70% out of wedlock tribe....are willing to sacrifice, work hours, pool resources, live prudently, and climb the economic ladder.

I'm just talking economics. Not potential terrorism. (and it's not terrorism if its a big city --at that point I don't judge and be an ugly bush black and white 'murican, but I digress)_

Egypt? Pakistan? Bangladesh? Afghanistan? Sorry, but they aren't welfare queens just to make a few.

Luckily many of the countries are welfare wanting shit holes with diaspora we're better off without.

Imperfect rules ---but hey, more good than bad.
