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.

The country has...a spring in its step it's not had for 20 years. It's refreshing.


Behold the mind addled by the drug "hopium".

What was going on in the country 20 years ago when we had a "spring in our step"?

We were deep into a war in Iraq launched on the basis of lies or gross misreading of intelligence.

Wall Street was gearing up to explode the economy three years later with its snake oil mortgage backed securities. (and the same thing, this time with crpto,is being made more probable in the near future with Trump and Republicans' passage of "The Genius Act")
