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.

It’s not as if dope hasn’t had ample opportunity to understand the issue.

I do understand the issue:

The democrat party and its bots, hacks and corrupt partisans absolutely do not want secured elections. Or borders for that matter. So they oppose simple things like photo ID to prove who you are when you vote.

And along the way these same people who claim to be thoughtful about the issue will ignore facts they don't like and pretend that their logically inconsistent positions just don't exist. Like how we need to present 2 pieces of photo ID and other pieces of identification to shovel snow in New York City but you can just show up to vote, no questions asked.

There's a reason why gazillions of people support the SAVE act and only partisan democrats and their sycophants don't: they like unsecured elections. It's that simple.

And it's why we see the pretzel logic and the ramsfanray examples come out whenever the subject comes up. As a species we can put Man on the moon, crack the human genome and retrieve things from the bottom of the ocean but we evidently cannot comprehend a way to help married women deal with a name change. It's impossible, I tell you.
