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.

"We're seeing as a result that ports here in the US, the traffic has really slowed and now thousands of dockworkers and truck drivers are worried about their jobs," one reporter said in the Oval Office on Thursday.

"That means we lose less money ... when you say it slowed down, that's a good thing, not a bad thing," Trump replied.


Dockworkers overwhelmingly voted for Trump. And Donny 2 Dolls believes it’s a good thing if they lose their jobs.

Well, if you were dumb enough to think Trump was telling the truth that he cares for you, then you probably are dumb enough to think losing your job is a good thing.
