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.

"My friend, I'm a wealthy white guy, everything Trump does he does for me."

Good. The truly wealthy don't call themselves that --- no further comment from me on that one ;)


"It's the poor red state folks who are getting screwed,"

I AGREE - and have said at much


'and the screwing will continue while I get more tax cuts."

Don't accept them. And send back any tax advantages you got that a poor person can't afford to participate in. So send back any taxes you saved via IRA or 401K. And send back the appreciation on stocks purchased under those portfolios and simply refuse to accept the Bush and Trump Tax cuts - so send the Bush tax cuts back too. C'mon, don't be a chickenhawk.


"Anyway, all the best, I hope your life improves."

An arrogant White Male, perhaps. I've already explained that life is good. But you don't acknowledge it and you peddle Alternative Facts. Sure you aren't a wealthy white female with a fatass lawyer ex husband named Conway? If so hubba hubba KellyAnne.

BUT, your little constitution, your bill of rights, your national debt, your institutions that will break-even at best, if they don't get touched first......well, those are things YOU -- have to accept :)

I'd say I hope that improves -- but it won't. Does that have more importance to you than lying about my life?

And, it's deserved.

Thanks for being a champion for poor red state white people. I hope they appreciate that you are their Mother Theresa, and not a typical White Liberal..... ahem, :)

Club 401K rides again! - case in point here.
