We can be tracked with decimeter precision. Yay. I'm sure it won't be used against us. Carry on.

Except for the whole "We want to use robot cars" thing. Uber wants to dump the Uber drivers, kids. They want self-driving cars, and all the profits for the executives. They aren't out to make you money. They want all the money. And yes, that means two million cab drivers, poor laborers in a crappy job, out of work forever.

Same thing in the trucking industry. They want the drivers gone. And not because of human error- the error is caused by pressure by the owners to increase profits, which dials down to making drivers work too many hours. The drivers are fine. They are being wrecked by greedy owners, who now jui-jitsu their nasty little secret into blaming drivers and virtously switching to robot trucks. Millions more out of work.

Your school doesn't accept the poor or badly parented., or those with low test scores. So, gosh, costs are low. Who could have guessed.

Schools should not be funded with property taxes. That system was designed to keep the money in their own neighborhood, and jack the poorer who don't get to live there.

Poorer districts take EVERYone, including the hot messes, while the uber-schools firstly are located in districts without a lot of poor people and the mess that goes with it. So it costs more to educate EVERYone, instead of the select who live in a special neighborhood. The rich are not heroes. They made this system with the purpose of keeping out the poor - and so made inevitable the tsunami of the poor we see today. Concentrate the bad in hot zones, eliminate the jobs, shut down the factories, refuse to lend money to buy homes, and gosh, fifty years later the country is exploding with the stupid and the angry. Who knew?

The rich possess an all-consuming rage that people are paid too much for labor, hence their fierce concentration on destroying the teachers' unions. It's nearly impossible to discuss education in the US without talk of the bad, paid-too-much teachers, which must be replaced with corporate employees half the price who quietly have to get food stamps to survive.

The teachers in the poorly-performing schools are big damned heroes. They face the fallout of our rage against the poor and dark and any employee who uses collective bargaining to be paid enough to buy a home. They go to school and face the mess that suburban white flight caused, while being condemnded as lazy idiots who can't teach. The students are n-generation washouts, and will only get worse, because that's how America's race dynamics and school funding works. We're unique among nations in our two-level school system, and that's because slavery never really ended. We made this mess, not the teachers.

As with many things, the solution is obvious. As you say, fund all students equally, from general revenue, ideally Federal as the Constitution requires schools, instead of local property tax revenue. Schools would be flatly equal (other than the usual overclass bunching up in their own enclaves to keep out the poor and dark), rather than the ton spent on the students in the rich areas from local levies and the federal and state underfunding the poor schools, which of course leads to the "failure" of the average test scores we see (richer areas have high scores, poor dead flat ruined, and the "average" drops).

Schools work fine. We just concentrate wealth on some schools and let everyone else go to hell, in the name of freedom. Whose freedom is the question.

This is the fallout of slavery, and lately of quietly letting the country fill up with illegal immigrants to keep wages down. In essence, we've been screwed for over 300 years because businessmen wanted to pay zero to almost zero wages and keep the profits.

The dummy did produce thrust. They repeated that for emphasis. That ruled out the inventor's idea that the slots were necessary.

They do understand ablation, and have compensated. The next round will double-damned sure eliminate that possibility.
