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.

Here are the facts,

...distorted to high heaven.

Trump lost 2.9 million jobs d

The pandemic shutdowns that democrats wanted did that. Not Trump's economic policies. Must you start every post with dishonesty?

Biden has added 15.4 million jobs

Zero for two. Biden hasn't "added" 15 million jobs. Those were jobs returning from the pandemic.

Sheesh already.

Trump lost, on average, 59,000

Zero for 3, per above. You're on a roll.

Dude, just stop. Who do you think you're fooling with this?

Because the Fed risks tipping the economy into a recession by not lowering rates more than by squeezing out the so-called “last mile” of inflation by keeping borrowing costs higher for longer than needed. As the labor market cools, the playbook changes.

You've been telling us for months how Super Awesome the economy is.
