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.

“There is a hilarious YouTube video titled What NYC is Now mocking the disgraceful state of the city’s lawless state that is now a haven for criminals.

The video may be in fun, but is sadly based on fact.

“Far too many edicts coming from Mayor Eric Adams’ administration are simply mind-boggling. The city has been invaded by illegal immigrants from several countries, and the mayor has ordered that they be sheltered in hotels, schools, and senior residencies, displacing senior veterans and resident citizens. In addition, a pilot program will be giving them $10,000 prepaid debit cards to buy certain items. What?!!”

“Needless to say, the recent political judgments against President Donald Trump and his businesses have induced a “get out of NYC asap rampage.” No one wants to do business here if biased judges can officiate over kangaroo court cases against political enemies. Those families who can move are relocating to red states but there are many of us without the resources to do so. There are also many like me who prefer to stay and fight.”

SNIP..Yep, I resemble this next paragraph.

“New York City used to be the greatest city in the world, and as I was born here during its glory years, the very idea that it’s doomed is unacceptable. I believe that everything that is wrong with the city is due to misguided, progressive politics primarily instituted by Democrats. Historically, NYC has thrived under great mayors like Fiorello LaGuardia, John Lindsay, and Rudy Giuliani, all Republicans.”
