The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" 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.

"The pace of changes in these events, including tensions from developing international trade policies and tariffs, accelerated through the first six months of 2025.
Considerable uncertainty remains as to the ultimate outcome of these events."
"It is reasonably possible there could be adverse consequences on most, if not all, of our operating businesses, as well as on our investments in equity securities, which could significantly affect our future results."


It’s going to get worse, before it gets worse. 🤔

Anyone thinking this craziness is going to magically get better anytime soon is delusional, IMHO. It’s like this administration is determined to drive the economy off a cliff for some reason.

And now we can see they will just blame it on Biden’s BLS, or Powell, or whatever. And the stupid followers will believe it. So damn frustrating.
