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.

Senate Democrats say they want the permanent extension of expanded Affordable Care Act (ACA) subsidies,
a reversal of the Medicaid cuts enacted under Trump's BB-Bill, and new limits on the president's authority to reduce federal spending.


Sure. I'd like all that too. They won't get it, not this way. They're playing into Trump's hand. Do I need to repeat what Schumer said only six months ago?

For busy voters, it can be hard to know who to trust.

Whatever. The Dems lied to us about Biden - he wasn't all there mentally. They lied to us about the border - they could and DID shut it down when it became too much of a political liability (too late, as it turned out).

Obviously, I don't trust ANY current Republican. I have only ever voted and sent money to Democrats. Now I don't trust most of them, either.
