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.

What the delicious part is..... (other than the big picture of normalized, violent, and permanent tribes in America slowly becoming visible to even the campus-401k-GoogleJockey- people .....)

Is that while they go about their little personal animosities some TV or Radio or Blog putz on either side....

Right now today, this is what constitutes victory for each tribe:

1.)They either force their insolvent, deadbeat, shouldn't-qualify-for-a-car-loan country to default on debt.....OR they play Russian roulette to extract concessions that - won't be but a drop in the bucket towards solvency.

2.)The other tribe's definition of victory: More debt.

Funny part is, they don't realize that today....is the good ol' days. They're going to FUBAR this thing even more....but they are inoculated because all they see is the S&P 500, and live within their segregated Bubbles.

LOL. Can to think there was a time I was passionately bothered by these things.
