In case you're serious, nuclear plants are not capable of exploding into atomic bombs. And they're not really a partisan issue, lots of liberals like them, myself included.
Psychologically, it's far easier to crash a plane by yourself than it is to plan a sneak attack on someone, attack and then crash the plane. It's possible that the co-pilot didn't even decide to crash the plane until the captain left for the restroom, these things are often sudden overwhelming urges.
When a plane isn't found, you know it wasn't hijacked -- has there ever been a hijacked plane that wasn't found? Not finding a plane means it crashed over the ocean, which we have not even explored the bottom of and will never find a plane in if it sinks away from a continental shelf.
The priest relationship is for Catholic confession. If confession weren't protected, then obviously people would stop simply stop confessing anything that could do them harm if made public. You can debate whether confessing to the priest helps their mental health or makes them less likely to do something bad in the future, but at least it allows someone to counsel them about it, and the alternative will be nobody knowing.
It's necessary to help our customer stay in the good graces of the FDA but really is pretty much a waste of everyone's time since these sort of documents are supposed to be done when the product is being developed, not ten years later without any evidence of an actual problem.
On the other hand, might it be a good thing to make them go through the costly process so that they lose the competitive advantage over the companies that did it usefully at the beginning of development?
Sometimes it's from long-term users with varied post histories - are these well-crafted astroturfers, carefully building up a false history to deflect suspicion?
Extremely unlikely. The point of astroturfing is not to look impeccable to someone who researches the poster for hours. A paid astroturfers time is thousands of times more valuable if spent finding more forums to make a couple astroturfing posts on, compared to wasting hours writing good posts on other topics.
Those posters may, however, have vested interests -- such as investments in certain companies.
Even asking a neighbor won't always work. I once lived in an apartment where the whole area was serviced by AT&T DSL, but AT&T decided they'd oversold their capacity and wasn't accepting new customers there (fortunately comcast was available in that case).
Not wanting the fuel you need to keep the lights on to be at the mercy of an antagonistic country (France) or a single powerful patron which could easily turn against you if the geopolitical situation made that profitable (Russia) is an extremely good reason to want to enrich locally.
We're not genuinely looking for other civilizations, because we don't have the capacity to look for that yet. We can listen for what would have to be absurdly strong radio signals, but that's not really looking. We can't even check an exo-Earth's atmosphere for oxygen yet, let alone signs of civilization.
Frequently they're extremely gullible. And many of them are rebel teens who want to lash out. And many of them are just evil -- bound to be a few thousand of those per billion people. It would be interesting to see the age demographics -- how many 50 year olds move to Islamic State, compared to teenagers?
If a plainclothes officer knocks and pretends to be a Jehovah's Witness at first in order to access the situation, even unstable armed murderers do not have a history of shooting.
Trying to minimize civilian casualties when attacking your target is much more civilized than trying to maximize them, yes. Neither is good except in the most desperate circumstances, but that doesn't mean there isn't a huge huge difference.
In the old days my browser would crash from java or flash at least once a week, but I can't even remember the last time Chrome or Firefox crashed now. Chrome stays open with dozens of tabs 24/7, the only reason I ever restart it is to get security updates, probably been a year since a crash. If you're getting regular crashes in everything but IE, there's something wrong.
As it happens, my total cost of car ownership has been significantly lower than the $100 monthly buss pass price for the last 5 years. But that's not the point. Many of my trips (and most people's trips) aren't possible without a car, so I have to own the car. As long as I own the car, public transit is prohibitively expensive. If public transit were affordable, people would leave their car at home sometimes.
I'd gladly use public transit for a significant percentage of my journeys, if it didn't cost so much more than driving. I'm not going to buy a $2.25 bus ticket to go a couple of miles when my car can get me there on 20 cents of gas.
Curbside recycling doesn't help much either when it's just for homeowners, as it seems to be most places. The homeowners around here have their recycling bins, but none of the apartments I've lived in have ever had any recycling options for any materials.
You could set a floor. For example, at least in California, the annual vehicle registration fee is based on car value. Set a percent of the registration fee as the minimum fine, then a percent of income tacked onto that.

The supposed source Ivan Gotyaovich does not appear to be exist, and the "Gotya" is a bit of a hint.

Dying on Mars would be more scenic
I suppose if you hate all plants, animals and bodies of water, and prefer a featureless desert where everything is one color.
Old people in a place with no advanced hospital facilities will significantly shorten lifespan, if they can even survive acceleration to earth orbit.
A colony that can't produce wealth can't achieve independence. It would simply be an impoverished dependent colony to support forever.
I have a feeling the other pilot would be busy holding his nose.

Difference is about 1/3 Americans actually believe far right wing news.
Whereas a significant majority of Russians approve of Putin.

You're worrying about a couple hundred dollars in man-hours for accountability on a $9,000,000,000 project?

Most of the USA does not agree with the American religious right, which is what you are referencing. Most of ISIS does not disagree with ISIS.
Actually most of ISIS disagrees with ISIS much more strongly, since most of them are coerced into joining at gunpoint.

Consider also that if you're going somewhere with someone the public transit price doubles while the car price remains the same.

Well it does help when you're dating the judge.
