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.

I went to law school so I wouldn't have to do math, but that certainly seems to me like a lot less than 100 years. That's a lot of tanks - their entire inventory right now is only about 300 tanks. And building tanks is probably a bit more complicated than artillery or ordinance. So it seems to me that if Germany can increase their entire tank inventory by a third in about five years, they should be able to manage increasing their artillery supply in less than a century, if pressed.


The point is that even in the face of the very thing they claim is their number 1 existential threat...they're not in a hurry.
They just aren't, I'm sorry.
