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.

That's absolutely false first you say this, tying it to the repetive Trump line then say

The Brits are in control of the decision whether to reduce the size of their Navy or not,

There's no "not". They've gutted the Royal Navy. It's not debateable.

Which means...we get to.

Sure. It also means we foot the bill and sometimes have to go out on a limb for The World Order.

It doesn't wallpaper over the state of the world we live in.

Yes, it does. Look at this thread. You want to discuss Trump and only Trump. I'd rather discuss the state of NATO readiness in the context of the global partnership. But every other board participants wants to...reduce the entire issue to Trump.

Don't you get bored with that?

Having Canada reduce their economic relationship with the U.S. and instead pursue greater connections with the EU because we tried to exploit their interdependence on our economy is bad for the U.S..

It sure is.

What this board fails to see is that this was Carney's plan all along. But hey...Trump.
