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.

Yes, if blue cities caused all the murder problems, then why are NY and NJ, with big blue cities, in the bottom 15 of the murder rates of the states? Aren't those cities hell holes where gangs roam the streets commandeering cars, raping, murdering and pillaging? Maybe New Yorker gangs need pointers on how to do it right from those blue city gangs in red states?
