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.

es, you want a dictator.

You’re just not a serious person.

So only serious persons want dictators? Then I am not a serious person. Dope, your whole diatribe about the bill is just specious political propaganda. Bit Trump is on record as wanting to be a dictator for a day. He will subvert the government because he has the power of the executive to replace.

My solution to the non-returnable Chinese is to negotiate with tariffs in mind. Krugman pretty much said the dirty little secret about tariffs is that you have to go well above 10% before you cause harm. The Chinese economy is sluggish right now - so put it on the trade table and see if we can't get visas issued.

But I'm still not a serious person who wants a dictator.
