The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", sykesix asked the members: "What do you do if you arrive early at movie besides go to the snack bar?" 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.

Democrats are demanding the addition of over $1 trillion for health programs.”

In other words, the Dems are trying to unwind some provisions of the BBB. The Repubs say "pass the CR, then we can fix the health insurance thing later"...except this is the "later" attempt to fix what the BBB did. If the Dems let this one go, then we will be back in the same position when the next "later" arrives. It's like the scam my DM are RS tried to work, repeatedly: give him what he wants now, for goodies promised later, except he always had an excuse when "later" arrived, when he had another ask.
