You also have the low paying jobs backward. Such low paying jobs are only able to exist *because* government subsidizes them. What is subsidized is encouraged. It's a form of corporate welfare and should be abolished.
What led to child labor in factories and mines is that children worked (typically in gruelling agrarian labor) and those jobs became available. What made abolishing child labor possible was those factories and mines allowing an increase in productivity such that we could afford to have such luxuries.
Many who both agree and disagree with many of my beliefs are doing it for reasons that are akin to rooting for a football team. They do not reason, they rationalize and we would be better off without them, or at least, their beliefs. They just muddy the water.
Nice to know that you can choose to eschew the protection (racket) and enforcement of the state and implement these things yourself.
Oh wait, you can't.
People owning and running businesses should be allowed to choose whith whom they associate and do business and then the ones which discriminate against otherwise good, paying customers can rightfully go under instead of being propped up by the policies of the state.
Here's the problem with mandated insurance... People still drive without it anyway. Now your insurance still has to cover uninsured drivers but because it's mandated, the insurance companies have you (the law-abiding driver) by the short and curlies and your rates go up. Happens every time and is a fine example of perverse incentives.
Of course, automated cars that won't even get moving unless they can check they're insured might fix that. But there may be other problems that arise from that.
It's who you trust. I really known nothing about Thawte and Verisign and the however many it is CAs in the browser now (do you?) and one instance of lapse of trust from them (which has happened) and you're screwed. It's really just the wrong infrastructure and implementation.
Why is Apple deciding where users' data is stored anyway? Oh, that's right, proprietary walled-garden locked-down bullshit. And yes, Google is no better.
Actually, it sounds more like drive unit failures are happening more often than expected and are so expensive that it could cause them some serious bad press so they are eating the cost (which is likely actually a small fraction of what the out of warranty cost to the customer would be) of folding it into the warranty.
Not that I'm ragging on Tesla or anything. I just think your analysis may be the reverse of the actual situation
Android actually uses standard Unix rights to do its separation. I wonder how hard it would be to apply that to a more regular Linux install. It would mean effectively turning it into a single user system, of course (though there may be a way to make it limited multi).
It's the wrong question anyway. We shouldn't be trusting arbitrary third parties (Verisign, Thawte etc) to validate who we should trust. This has always been the case. This government stuff has just thrown it in the spotlight.
The violations of the constitution are pretty bad in themselves, however.
It's my experience that it's usually a handful of high-quality contributors in many niche forums (such as newsgroups) that keep things going and form a solid base for the group to continue. If a troll can run off a few of those, and some people have thinner skins than others, then the cohesiveness of the forum can dissipate and people leave at an ever-accelerating rate. once the core is gone, it's game over. Seen it happen more than once. Personal attacks seem to be one of the early contributing factors but once the nose is in the tend, just flat-out drivel is enough to help the decline along.
*shrug*. There are a lot of factors that work in Ca's favor. There's no denying that. A healthy economy can support a fair amount of government excess much as an otherwise healthy host can support a tapeworm for a good while. There comes a point where the host starts to sicken and die though (c.f. Detroit)

Maybe it's not about "me". You don't have to be black to appreciate what Rosa Parks did.

And yet still they do and still your costs go up.
And yet still your costs go up. That's the point. Sure you get the warm fuzzies but objectively, you're worse off.
Beliefs are not like rooting for a football team.
I wish.

We have had a huge amount of government regulation in place for years. This must be lies or a simple misunderstanding.
Scuse me, I think I dropped my sarcasm tag.
Where are the flying cars when you need them?

I dunno, you can learn some good coping strategies from having a stray creeper blow up half of your painstakingly, immaculately crafted residence.
OTOH, I played that game for a solid week and when driving my real car would find myself eyeing up slopes and bumps as likely jump-ramps.
I hope you told him you'd just turned noclip on and he could walk right through that tree over there.

Alice, what's the matter?
"sandbox" is the word you're reaching for.
Yep. Hard to inject malware into a computer stuck on the BSOD.
