You can't beach a ship in your own territorial waters and then get upset when China comes to take your stuff and harass you? Do you understand what is even happening in the South China Sea?
Poach
I'll just leave this here. Not exactly what you describe, but not too different either
Looks at US corn production for ethanol 👀
Well, the board doesn't have any actual power? That seems flawed, if the board is supposed to hold the police accountable, I see no way that's possible without some power. Like removing the asshole police chief that thinks his department is above being held accountable.
Electric catrs still pollute massively. Mainly tire and break dust (more than ICE cats because they are heavier). Nevermind that cars dependency is terrible and unsustainable (both economically and environmentally). Make cities for people not cars.
Plus show me one example of where car dependency has worked. It's always "just add more lanes". Yeah just ask Texas how their 26 lane highway is going.
Plus we don't need to be paving over airable farmland for people cosplaying as rural folk. We have about 5 parking spots for every single car in the United States. Seems like a great use of land.
Update/modernize PIR? Have the city hold events?
Literally the first line in the article says 14. I know the housing market sucks, but not that bad yet
Ah but then line might not go up
How do you feel about Russia's deep oil pockets now that Ukraine is going after their refineries and porta? Do you think Russia can continue to advance or hold ground while also defending large swaths of the western part of Russia? Genuinely curious
Unfortunately, the FCC probably doesn't have the power to do much more than fine them. It would probably take congress to pass a bill to have jail time or something.
I'm purely guessing though
Reading the article, it sounds like the FCC has enforced similar stuff before. And at up to a $23,000 fine it could add up quickly. And the precedent of previous large fines makes me think this might actually have some teeth.
I don't think most people would consider their religion a conflict of interest. I would agree that it is for scientific research, and probably a whole lot of other things...
