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.

Here's a question, actually a couple, that the media won't ask.

What "higher authority do these dimwits think they're answering to? Because it sure isn't the US Constitution.
What are they trying to hide?


These questions have been answered several times already on this board.

Either you missed them or don’t understand basic accounting concepts.

This is the payment system that was set up to ensure that legal payments authorized by our elected officials (such as Congress and the President) and are processed accurately (correct amount and payee) and timely. It was not set up to determine who gets paid.

There is ZERO need to get access to the system to find out who gets paid or how much they get paid. The only reason the non-US unelected citizen wants access is to block legal and previously authorized payments by elected officials.

There is a 100% chance they will fuckup something that harms our nation’s finances and reputation.

Just like the tariffs started by the current moron-in-chief. Even the right-wing Wall Street Journal called them the dumbest tariffs in history.

Because of Trump and his minions, we are headed for a depression. Hope you’re prepared.

There is one immutable lesson that nature teaches us over and over; you can’t fix stupid.
