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.

Maybe now is a good time to ask people to move the discussion to the appropriate boards and to exercise self restraint in their posts / counter posts so that the BOD can be cleared of some of the "message traffic" on the political threads in advance of the annual meeting. That should give us all something to discuss that returns the center of conversation to BRK related business analysis.

We've tried asking them to self-deport from this board. Not many have.

I propose it is now time for Manlobbi to form a new board, perhaps call it "El Salvadoran Terrorism Prison" and then Manlobbi (or a designated cabinet secretary) can then move the worst violating thread each day at midnight from the BRK board to that other board. I don't think it would take that many days before the thrill of berating other BRK boarders for voting in a way you don't approve of would wear off.
