This is what I mean. This HUGE benefit should come at a price.

Individuals aren't taxes based on their profit but income. Corporations should minimally be held to the same standard. After all there is a huge benefit to incorporating which is limiting liability of the owners. Tax the income at a much lower rate of 5% or so. Think of all of the productivity lost moving money around to optimize tax payments. If your profit margin isn't high enough to cover this tax then you shouldn't incorporate.
Wrong. Electric cars have plenty of gears. You need to change the relatively high RPM of an electric motor to the lower RPM of the wheels. Also if a motor is driving more than one wheel you need a differential which is full of gears.
What you might not need is a transmission where you can actively change the gear ratio but there are plenty of gears in an electric car.
I realize everyone's body is different but I have done quite a few experiments trying to figure out what to eat. For 2 months I ate 3-4 eggs a day for breakfast. I really like eggs but by the end I was getting tired. I have always had high LDL (150-170 range). Eating the eggs had zero effect over 2 months. What had worked for me is what you are suggesting. I try to get the majority of my calories from good quality natural fats. The Plant based ones are coconut oil, olive oil, and palm oil. These are actual oils you can get out of plants just by grinding and squeezing. I also get some from nuts and avocados. I avoid the ones you talk about that require chemicals to extract them from the plant before being mostly removed'. The animal fats are mostly heavy cream, butter, and to a less degree from meats. As a 40 year old man I went from 215 to 175 and have kept this weight off for over 2 years.
As for my cardiovascular health indicators everything improved with this way of eating with the exception of LDL which is still where it was. But HDL has increased and Triglycerides have gone way down as well as blood glucose levels. Plus I feel as good as I did when I was 20 where I felt like crap through most of my late 20's and 30's.
Again this is a one person experiment and I don't know if I'll die from a heart attack when I'm 60 but I'll take how I feel over contradictory theories proposed by the pharmaceutical industry.

NASA doesn't build rockets. They write contracts for companies to build rockets. The reason SpaceX is building rockets today is thanks to previous developments due to NASA contracts and current NASA procurement.
Right on the money with #2. During the work week when I'm not moving much I have 2-3 coffees with cream from 5am to 5pm with no discomfort. At 5pm I eat a big meal and I'm good until the next day.
Same results here as I'm drinking a coffee with heavy cream. I now get about 50% of calories from fat (mostly saturated).
Everything improved with the exception of LDL which is still high 160. HDL went from 40's to 60's. Triglycerides in the 70-80's, glucose in the 60's and I'm down from 210 lb to 170 lb.
That will help make them even cheaper to hire.
If you have worked for a couple decades on a project I imagine it would nearly impossible to sleep.
No. The Voyagers were launched in the late 1970's and are still functioning.
They should allow the octopus access to the drug tank and see if they prefer it.
They are still used but it's in short supply because you need to create it in special reactors. And funding is a problem.
These aren't my theories I just find some of them interesting. It makes some sense that there should be a charge differential between a region close to the sun and far away. I am actually looking forward to the data.
It's not the first, nor shall it be the last, time I've been burned by you, grammar Nazi.
