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.

Despite the mistaken assumptions of inadequately educated Leftist feces throwing monkeys, government buildings are generally speaking not "free speech zones" for the employees who work at them.

Even in a public pre school, kindergarten teachers are not permitted to say and do whatever they feel like to the little children.

They have to follow the rules imposed by the school administration, the school board, and ultimately the voters who elect that school board.

Of course no one is controlling what anyone's thoughts are. They are controlling what is being said or written on government property paid for by the taxpayers dime.

Of course any of those monkeys are free to say and think whatever they like such as on internet forums assuming you pay for your Internet service and follow the rules of the forum.

You can be as stupid as you want right here for instance.
