Comment Re:Import of Chinese EV's will be prohibited (Score 1) 172

What exactly do you want to deregulate? Safety? Warranty? You can't deregulate to make a cheaper EV, they cost more simply because the battery tech is not to the point yet of being ridiculously cheap.

Deregulating the dealership model won't really save consumers much, if at all. Might save us some purchase anxiety regarding price shenanigans though.

Comment Re:Not just drones (Score 1) 66

Once ready to fly drones hit the market the RC hobby industry's exemptions were doomed to be revoked. Too many people treating them as toys and not a serious hobby. It's that simple.

For decades the RC hobbyists could keep themselves in check, mostly because everyone put effort into building their aircraft or vehicle so it was actually worth something to the owner. Now it's just toys pulled out of a box flying everywhere not really caring that a hobbyist segment earned the right to the exemption.

I think that because the eventual end game of the current situation is one giant global company. And no one else. It reduces any one corporations's power and allows competition which is stamped out by merging to be bigger than someone else.

First, a corporation should be created and end as it's own entity; mergers and acquisitions should not be a thing between corporations. As such their company was in decline and should be dissolved if they can't continue as a going concern. Auction off the carcass and close the book on the corporate charter.

Comment Sounds like a prison. (Score 3, Insightful) 96

Society: trending down.

Schools are just too big. More local schools with smaller buildings and a hell of a lot less administration department. All this weapon detection and eyes everywhere just says school buildings have become too big to manage in any reasonable way. I'm not saying we should go back to the little schoolhouse in every neighborhood, but almost.
