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.

TYT's piece on the "sanctions", and the Sec Treas admitting the sanctions would destroy the global financial system. The clip of Bessent saying the plan is economic suicide for the US is at the 5:10 mark.

It's all a kabuki dance, to kill time, until after the election.
