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.

Speaking on a conservative podcast called “Ruthless,” Mr. Zeldin said the E.P.A. planned to rescind the 2009 declaration, known as the “endangerment finding,” which concluded that planet-warming greenhouse gases pose a threat to public health. The Obama and Biden administrations used that determination to set strict limits on greenhouse gas emissions from cars, power plants and other industrial sources of pollution.

“Repealing it will be the largest deregulatory action in the history of America,” Mr. Zeldin said. He said the finding and the regulations that stemmed from it “cost Americans a lot of money.”


Down the road a ways...do you know what else is going to "cost Americans a lot of money"? Science denying bullshit like this. But that's OK, the impact will be in a future where most of those responsible will be dead. Their descendants? Who cares.
