Sorry, I should have made it more obvious that I was writing tongue in cheek about the monarchy. Not about SpaceX though. I'm pretty impressed.

It doesn't work to do this with a democratic government. We need a monarchy
It seems to me that SpaceX is on the path to a solution that might be affordable by a single administration, though.

And of course it's in the U.S. interest to make sure the Russians have an active and completely up-to-date source of rocket engines for their nuclear missles.
In this vein, I wonder what it is we are paying the Chinese to do?
OK guys. We've promoted Open Source for decades. We have to own up to our own problems.
This was a failure in the Open Source process. It is just as likely to happen to closed source software, and more likely to go unrevealed if it does, which is why we aren't already having our heads handed to us.
But we need to look at whether Open Source projects should be providing the world's security without any significant funding to do so.
...it is arguably "stealing reputation" (depriving another of their reputation and taking it for yourself).
I've referred to it as "reputation fraud," but yes, we appear to be in general agreement.
I see this old semantic game blooms anew on Slashdot. "It isn't stealing". Fine. It's fraud. Don't worry that your reputation is shot and/or somebody else is trading on your good name. It isn't stealing. Oh... the victim feels much better now.
I don't understand; what are you complaining about? You're correct. It isn't theft, it is fraud. So why call it theft when it's clearly something else?
If you call it by the correct name, you'll get community support, even among the "copying is not theft" crowd. OTOH, if you call it stealing, then you'll get mired in a gigantic semantic dogpile as hundreds of people re-litigate what constitutes "stealing."
We don't even need to raise the "Is it stealing?" question in this case. It's clearly fraud. So call it "fraud." Geez...
WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS DOING ON SLASHDOT?!?
You want to spread whiny, partisan, maliciously misleading horseshit? Go to RedState or Breitbart; that's their stock in trade. It doesn't fscking belong here. Get this garbage off Slashdot now.
Jeff, I'm sorry that you're paying more. I'm envious that your state is implementing single-payer, though! California considers and rejects the bill every session, so far.
MVP itself is not-for-profit. Interesting that they think the pool in the two states they focus on is now that much more expensive. I can't imagine why.
Thanks

To pick a nit, if you require medical attention after an auto accident, typically the at-fault driver's auto policy would need to cover that.
If they are so kind to stick around and your expenses do not exceed the limits.
Certainly such scams existed, but 30 seconds of googling can typically separate the good from the fraud.
The web helps. At the time, I was not able to see the plan until the salesman was present.
