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.

Bloomberg is reporting that Oman has now announced that ships traversing the Strait of Hormuz may now have to pay a toll if they transit through Oman’s territorial waters rather than Iran’s.

Where Trump is involved, things just seem to get worse, whether it’s the Reflecting Pool, the National Parks, or freedom of navigation in the Persian Gulf.

Trump has a unique talent for addressing a problem by making it all much worse.

Making real mountains out of molehills R-Us.

Take any area of national life that Trump has meddled in…… he’s made it worse.

The only people who disagree are those who enjoy dancing in the flames.

“Evil” cannot create.

It can only destroy.
