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.

Way off topic for the BRK board.....


Maybe Americans ARE different, I don't know anymore.

Ponder upon the history of the USA, and where an under what circumstance and *why* the people came to the US. (Spoiler: it was mostly to get away from the Old Country.)

Not helped by the cream of the European population being killed in WW 1.

Also the core difference between a "subject" and a "citizen". The political difference is immense. From the very beginning, Americans are citizens.
