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.

"Democrats are the party of the rich and the corporations."

The person you are responding to likes to stay stupid shit in order to be provocative and elicit a reaction. Some of the shit is so stupid that I am sure even he doesn't believe all of it.

Like his statement that "Democrats are the party of the rich and the corporations."

Anyone who has an IQ greater than gravel and has been paying the least bit of attention the past few decades knows that is utterly ridiculous. Go back to the past two and a half decades and see who the U.S. Chamber of Commerce has endorsed for each presidential election. Then go and see which party has consistently pushed to have big money in politics (especially anonymous big money). That would be the Republican Party.

This is where he responds with "Soros" because he is triggered and that is the boogeyman that has been pounded into his head. He also doesn't understand that a single data point doesn't create a big picture.
