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.

I won't send even 60 seconds reading the details but.....dude.....you should've sold the classified docs and kicked back abroad.

And so many other alternatives - go the Ruling Class Google Jockey Route:

Send Americans to die in Vietnam, for nothing.

OR tell Saddam we won't get involved in his border dispute, and then when you realize he's going to Saudi Arabia, launch the Gulf War and in doing so, leave some bases and pork eating Americans by Mecca, and have your buddy bin Laden go into exile and start plotting to greek you for only $500k and a few flying lessons.

And then when soldiers come back from Gulf War, deny and ignore Gulf War Syndrome until people like Senator Kay Bailey H and Ross Perot make you deal with it.

Break campaign finance laws vis a vis China. Literally be on camera with Chinese fundraisers, thanking them for helping you get around the laws. And in the meantime, "lose" many military secrets to China and sign them up for Permanent Normalized Trade and wTO entry.

Or pre-hatch a plan for another Iraq War, this time to kill 1000s of Americans and God knows how many Iraqis.

ALL the while, feeding at the trough of Fannie and Freddie until the world got Ckuffed with a financial crisis.

Donald Dumbass could've done all of the above and had a fine legacy too.

Geez.
