How would the use of light rapid transit (hyperloop) reduce wear and tear on roads from heavy trucks? Heavy trucks are not normally used for bulk people transport.
We really need a remote village somewhere, without all the "Crazy Allergy" sources. If parents think their kids have those allergies they can go live there for a while and see if they get better. I suggest a domed (glass with Faraday cage) village in northern Canada, only accessible by plane, with full quarantine going in.
How about suing the company running the license plate reader? It's (maybe?) part of a criminal conspiracy to slander innocent people, and that's enough in lawsuit happy USA.
This would tend to destroy legitimate street front stores in the area, as their customers would get slandered. This would result in that street losing its tax base rather quickly, and soon after accumulating only "unpopular" business activities.
If you license prostitution then the government knows who they are, and the tax man has experience in following the money. If you don't have a license then the clients with money will avoid you.
The Paris attack happened because the intelligence agencies are spending so much time/money/manpower spying on "law abiding" citizens that they don't have time to actively watch the known troublemakers. The Paris attackers were on watch lists, they were known to be a threat.
A judicial ruling that this is unconstitutional means the government can't pass a law or use an executive order or issue a NSL to do this. It would require a constitutional amendment.
I don't recall this ever coming up as an election issue. You can't vote to correct a problem if you don't know about it, and they work very hard to ensure you don't know. Simple solution: mandatory disclosure of released information after 1 year. Sufficient for police work, will strongly discourage fishing expeditions.
Most of the worlds meat production is done using land unfit for crops, and therefore eliminating it doesn't increase food supply. Eliminating "western/grain fed" meat production would increase arable farm land but not food production as we deliberately limit food grown so as to avoid depressing agriculture profits. Going vegetarian is just saying you value some life (animals) higher than others (plants).
We need to stop using Oil as a fuel to stop giving money to middle east extremists and to prepare for the end of affordable oil. Abandoning oil and coal to preserve the environment would require massive international cooperation that historically just doesn't happen until things get really bad.
Laser communications takes little power or space in the cube. A highly directional transmitter can manage on a few watts, though the receive side needs a big dish to collect the incoming signal.
Civilians in support roles to the military have always been targeted. Not all those German factories that got bombed were empty, and the ships carrying supplies to England in U-boat infested waters had civilian crews.
So you won't have cheap antibiotics (due to the agricultural sector wanting that extra % in profits), and the replacement will be expensive and not subject to generic production. I see nothing that big pharma would object to here.
Americans are fine with giving trillions to the banks (Communism) and giving billions per year to big agribusiness (export subsidies=Communism) and having public roads (Communism), but don't you dare have publicly funded medicare. The biggest issue is many Americans have no idea what Socialism is, and don't recognize it when it's shoved down their throats.

Having a mail box is not a prerequisite for having money or interacting with government.
Ensure you add negative altitude, some people live in caves, or their mothers basement.
For delivery, having a "radio homing beacon" mode on your cell phone would be more useful. It would also be a great feature for emergencies.
You can extend GPS to any arbitrary granularity, it's just not much use if you can't locate the spot because GPS can't give that accuracy.
There are enough smart poor people to ensure it gets reverse engineered or copied, and distributed on the black market.
You could impose public service. Run a red light, pick up garbage for 100 hours.

Kids with extreme allergies should be home schooled.

One way to spread your religion is to force women to have more kids. Gotta keep up with the Godless Muslims/Protestants/Heathen/Some other group.

Possibly the oil company that owns the patent on larger batteries won't let them be built?

You are saying that colonizing Mars isn't legally possible.

When you see "Drone Strike" try substituting "We went out and killed a bunch of suspected criminals, because it's easier than having a trial".
