If this were remotely true then wind turbines would be getting smaller each year.

Not sure what you are getting at, but the landing strip does not have to be right at the base of the windmill. Trucks will still be used to move the blades from where the airplane lands to there. The distance is a lot shorter however.

I'm not very clear why helicopters can't be used though.

You seem incapable of reading comments before writing your fantasy about what they say.

Someone pointed out some differences in Idiocracy: a primary plot point was that the President actively recruited a cabinet member for intelligence, without knowing what that cabinet member would recommend, and willingly followed the possibly unexpected advice provided by that cabinet member, and actively and accurately observed and judged results both when the cabinet member made a correct and when they made an incorrect decision.

It is considerably safer to treat stop signs as yield signs for (human-powered) bicycles. By far the most dangerous thing at intersections is being hit by cross traffic while they are moving at the low speed that they have to from a stop.

Robotaxis are NOT going to be privately-owned vehicles. They will be owned in huge fleets for at least two reasons: 1. Destruction of a robotaxi is not devastating to the owner of a fleet. 2. You don't have to come up with some elaborate system to "equitably distribute" the rides so all the cars get equal shares of income.

That's the rule in France too

WHOOSH!!!!

I believe the gp was trying to be sarcastic.

And the chocolate ration has been increased.

This is a lie. The 2017 tax changes raised my taxes considerably, mostly because of the removal of SALT. So "every person reading this" is incorrect.

90% of this is responses to the first post which was "communism is evil". And very few of those responses seem to be about Trump. You seem to have an inability to see reality.
