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.

After writing and deleting several replies to a recent thread here I'm going to take this advice from our generous host. It's not as much for my peace of mind, but the temporal asymmetry of the matter. There are an inexhaustible number of commenters on the internet who would waste my time arguing unproductively. It is time I could be devoting to finding and interacting with the much rarer people who are worth the attention. Serotonin over dopamine.

I'd love to hear anyone's first-person impressions of Greg Abel or Joseph Brandon.
