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.

lol, dude, the # of parts ( think jobs ) that an ice ( internal combustion engine ) requires versus an EV is off the charts. Like every other technology workforce, the # of autoworkers has shrunk as the years go by. The #'s will shrink heavily if EV's take over. The simplicity of EV versus ICE is no contest. But there are a lot of people that don't live in the sunbelt, so until battery cold weather performance makes some big gains, the ICE is going to be around, unless of course everybody moves to the sunbelt. And there is no way I'm moving to the sunbelt, so they'll have at least 1 customer for ICE vehicles, lol.

And as someone who lives in Michigan, the protest against Biden is due to Israel & Gaza, has ZERO to do with UAW thumbing their nose at Biden.

As an aside, I early voted last week, was the only voter in the Poll area. Worker hands me the card to choose which side ( R or D ) I want to vote. I ask her if there is an Independent category, she says No. I say, OK, is there an anti-Trump category, She beats back a smile and says No, there are only R or D. I laughed and said that will do.
