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.

Judge Arthur Engoron ordered the former president and the Trump Organization to pay over $350 million in damages, and bars Trump "from serving as an officer or director of any New York corporation or other legal entity in New York for a period of three years."

He also continued "the appointment of an Independent Monitor" and ordered "the installation of an Independent Director of Compliance" for the company.

I wondered if Trump could just not pay it and get away with it, but the realized part of the job of the Independent Monitor and Independent Director of Compliance would be to see that it's paid. Now I wonder if they can sell assets to pay. I'd sell Mar-a-Lago for $18 million and say - see? 😄 😎 Just joshin.
