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.

Banksy,

Why don't you tell us what country you are posting from and your national origin.

You obviously aren't from the U.S.

I was born and raised in the NYC metro area and currently reside there.

I have lived in this area all my life. I live in a "bedroom community" in a town on a commuter rail line into NYC.

So, I actually CARE about what happens to my city, my state, and my country.

Even though I rarely hop the train into NYC anymore, I CARE if people like Mamdani and the even more insane NYC Counsel turn it into a 3rd world ishthole.

I CARE if the streets in NYC are safe or unsafe. It personally affects me and many people I know and love who work and live in NYC.

In fact my wife and daughter are going into Manhattan to spend the day sightseeing (museums etc.) as a mother/daughter daytrip.

I CARE if some mentally ill nutjob, or some violent criminal who is out on the streets but shouldn't be, due to liberal judges, harasses them or attacks them or even makes them feel safe just for being there.

I care about what happens in the rest of MY COUNTRY.

You do not. Obviously.
