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.

Are the Dems going to be willing to roll over and let Trump have his way in order show how bad his policies are... or are they going to be like last time with the "resistance".

I suspect they will take whatever steps they can to oppose his policies.


But Albaby..... the wealthiest and biggest farms are owned by Republican stalwarts who freely admit in interviews with the major networks that if mass deportations are executed in Caifornia, the food simply stops.

330,000 undocumented workers in the Salinas and San Joaquin valley clear the fields, set the pipes, place the sets over and over.... while labor contractors bus crews from field to field filling gondolas of product that get hauled to packing houses every few miles, into trucks and off to the nation.

The workers have always been a blend of undocumented immmigrants migrating and/or residing here full time.... working, having kids here, retiring. Lots of kids who are citizens, speak no spanish, never been to Oaxaca... gonna stay here while Mom, Dad, y los abuelos get deported?

And the redneck republican watches his 20 miles of cropland lay fallow with nobody to continue the production cycle?
