Comment your assuming a lot (Score 1) 342

Your assuming that the Nevada health and safety are the local health inspector(s). A group of people who may well hate burning man and have no downside to misinterpreting the regs.

Your assuming the volunteers scale in a linear fashion while accessing the same truck.

Perhaps the altruistic vendor wants to inflate their ego by having people wait for hours for their product?

This is a scenario where if you think you can do it better rent a freezer truck and buy some ice see how well you do.

It's not but the possibility tends to mitigate trolls IRL. They thrive where they feel safe from any repercussion often via the anonymous nature of the internet and the ease of which it can be done. So it's more the possibility of getting punched in the face than then actually getting punched that mitigated the behavior.

Polite society took this to extreams via various honor dueling and similar. So yes you lost honor reputation and face or risked your life for being a troll of the time.

Not obviously a crime?? Do the FL police not have a copy of the constitution handy? You know that thing they promise to uphold. Frankly the judges that were lied to should be charging these people with criminal contempt of court since it's something within their power. Yes that means less bad cops and lawyers.

We need the cops to be told parallel construction etc etc is never OK. If they can not reveal the means then they can not use the means is pretty simple. If they fear people finding about what/how they are doing something then they should not be doing it. It is not war the means police use need to be fully transparent to the people they claim to protect and serve.

1 Sounds good.
2 I'll live where I want to thank you.
3 Nuke deed restrictions from orbit it's the only way to be sure. Screw you on peek rate pricing for solar your just screwing over anybody that has not put it in place/does not have that option. Pretty much apartment dwellers and people that live to far north. I'm ok with buyback but only at the average baseload rate.
4 Good plan for many things there is no other option.
5 The problem is that consumer mandates jack up prices. Mandates at producers get fought tooth and nail as it increases their cost of goods but their sale prices are not fungible.

Look at amtrack, we have high speed rail through RI because it gets them 3 people on the hill. Making it faster to fly than take high speed rail for the NYC to Boston leg and skipping 2 large city's on the route. That is US central planning. We have cities without beltways because mayors though it would kill the city. Instead the gridlock did just that. Central planning got us the TSA.

We do not have central planning we have central pork.
