So, they're private companies able to do whatever they want and immune from regulation as long as they hurt conservatives... but they can be instantly put under the government control when it will help an "oppressed class".

Hey, why build a an airplane set for a movie when you can just get on a ghost flight! You would have to of course do the cost benefit analysis to see if the price for the tickets for each cast/crew member was worth it vs building the set.

- Just put the alcohol into a mini refrigerated walk-in room that's behind a locked door. The door only opens for those who are over the drinking age... there, one employee position resolved. - create a greeting robot (screen with a human face) with preprogrammed messages and potentially preprogrammed responses to questions... there, the other employee position resolved.

Make the species extinct. There... problem solved.

Just cause you disagree with what I have to say, I'm a troll?... Here's a distinction for you, the slashdot mod that marked me a troll is an ASSHOLE! Do some research and think for yourself instead of just falling in line with the lemmings

"Climate scientists" (priesthood); if questioned they always cite their go to talking points (bible), many of which can be refuted; go against the alarmist orthodoxy and you'll lose colleagues and funding (excommunication); and al gore (he might as well be their high priest, even though he isn't a "climate scientist").

Supply more carbon dioxide and the fauna of today will bloom into megafauna

I don't deny global climate change exists. It is debatable as to the overall implications as 1) the climate models are shit; 2) research funding is contingent on only believing in the gcc alarmist orthodoxy; 3) the "97% of scientists" quote is based on a narrowly defined survey - that one might say is faulty, bordering on dishonest, research; 4) a growing body of scientists across the spectrum are in disagreement with the gcc alarmist orthodoxy; 5) carbon dioxide is not the leading green house gas - it's water vapor.

No... no, it's not. If places in Africa are not shitholes, please enlighten us as to why they aren't.

Go back to a republic - where only land owners get to vote. Then use computers to adjust the weight of each vote based on how much land you own.

The model needs to change where YOU own YOUR data and information. So, when YOUR information is sold to advertisers, YOU get (at least) a piece of the profits from the online advertising. Sure, it might be pennies or fractions of pennies, but considering how much and often a person's data is bought and sold, it'd add up.

Hmm... What kind of lightbulbs?

We need to kill all communists too... +100 mil dead under the various attempts at a communist/socialist utopia that has always only ever made things worse.

Beyond the costs and regulations, which were initially implemented in order to help whiny cry babies like you net neutrality asshats, there's getting tied into the Internet itself; which, if you're too small, you have to pay to gain access, or you have to obtain some kind of mutual agreement from the big boys (that you helped make big btw, w/ all yo rules, regs, and req)... so all I'll say is pfft!
