over 20% unemployment is not the time to be increasing the size of the labor force.

I would imagine that the 30 year EROEI is where the ROI is achieved in 5 - 10 years. Any longer then that and 5% in the market is typically a better investiment decision.

Not entirely true, when you explicitly buy renewable energy you increase the demand and the price slides up making renewables more profitable which leads to creation of more renewable sources.

None of that has anything to do with GP's original comment that the US is far worse then China, you should go check you numbers Imperialist Britain is near Hitler's body count.

I don't think you want to get into a body count with China, Mao's high score for a single year beat Hitler's lifetime numbers.

I would love that, a little piece of me dies every time I have to convert a QString to a std::string or vice versa, have to do a clean & rebuild because because the compiler decided I didn't need to re-moc, or have to explain to PFYs the joys of forcing all UI object manipulation onto a single thread.

Car makers do not drive the cars they make, the people do.
Car makers do not buy the cars they make, the people do.
Car makers will change the cars they make to suit the desires of the people. Which is why few sedans are being made in the US
If you want a car that pollutes less you can choose to buy it, car makers can't force you to buy one that pollutes more. So how exactly do you have no control over what car makers do?

You should take a closer look at your local politics, there is all sorts of corruption. Large public works projects always seem to choose contractors that are friends or family. Any land that needs to be purchased always seems to get bought up by local government members before the project is announced. All this happens and people still reelect them because of the R or D next to their name.

You are right cost is king. There have been analysis do on the viability of electric semi's. The weight of the batteries means less cargo can be carried, the claimed operational cost benefits can not offset the loss of cargo being shipped per trailer. There are very specific circumstances where an electric semi makes sense but the technology still needs to mature to make it cost effective on a wider set of applications.

If you can combine the 1's & 0's sequentially and get images, docs, videos, ... it's unencrypted. Truthfully they just need to expand RFC 3514 to include the illegal activities in the malicious detection system.

You can't do that to our pledges only we can do that to them.

Freedom of speech is too valuable to give up to protect from disinformation. If people want to write that the earth is flat and vaccines cause autism let them. The value of free speech is much higher then the cost of morons getting disinformation.

I don't have anything to worry about because my code is perfect but many other are not as awesome as me.
