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.

Two hundred thousand. Wow. Well, unemployment is going to go up. Biden fixed that during his four years, and now the Felon is going to trash it. Well, that will be ammo for the next campaign ("unemployment went up during his tenure...both terms!!").
****

See folks? Liberals feel that government hiring - is real "employment".





PS: 200,000 will have to deal with *real* jobs now. LOL some of them are in for an ass whipping, long overdue. When they are at their desk wolfing down something from a fast food bag, and answering work emails at night, and told to come in on a Sunday- they'll know :) Gosh I am so mad I'm not in DC anymore I'd love to see all of this happen. Texting with a buddy I used to work with and he's telling me that it's not rampant - but there's pockets of people trying to come to grips that their job and benefits - aren't an entitlement and aren't eternal.
