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.

Disagree, we can exact extremely high consequences with our navy alone. There is no need to invade as if they are occupying someone else's territory and must be ejected. And whether deterrence evolves into war is entirely up to them. It is important for them to know that if they want to go there, we have no problem upping the pain. At some point when we run out of military targets, we can unilaterally declare a cease fire.
