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.

it will compete with the existing tunnel, and the decrepit old bridge

Free market--remember? Or NOT ?? See below. Canada can legitimately close the "decrepit old bridge" on their end as it IS a known threat to international trade AND people as well.

U.S. Ambassador to Canada Pete Hoekstra says it’s a “myth” that Canada paid for the Gordie Howe International Bridge.

HUA disease.

“The bridge will actually be paid for by the folks who are using the bridge,” said Hoekstra.

Their DECREPIT OLD BRIDGE was paid for by the folks using the bridge. So, NO LOSS TO THEM.

So why didn't the Morons build the new bridge? THEY don't pay for it (“The bridge will actually be paid for by the folks who are using the bridge”). A FREE BRIDGE--and they refused to do it. As stated: MORONS !!!
