For that matter, if a university could be entirely staffed by a team from India and run at half the cost, isn't it that university's fiduciary duty to change out its entire staff?
You are underscoring the very heart of this issue. Why is only one industry a candidate for this legal replacement? H-!B should be open to all professions or not at all. Also there should be a set amount of H-!Bs available at every salary level, including executive/administrative.
Without regulation, Bic might be able to start making an epi-pen but it will likely be found exploded in your bag when you need to use it. There is no realistic way to sell medical goods without regulation, it just needs the correct regulation.
The funny thing about American government is that they seem to do enough to wreck any good natural market effects for the consumer and stop there. A company should not feel entitled to any amount of money when they are in an industry such as health care, and where it so vastly betters society overall to have access to their products.
When you are a single payer you have negotiating power to tell the company what you will pay for the product. Basically they go to a company and tell them, no you're not going to make $50 billion off of us but you can clear an extra $10 billion and you can take it or leave it. Usually they will take it.
I couldn't imagine growing four cornstalks in an average apartment. Multiply four stalks by 200 apartments and you have practically a farmers field. These are not small plants and they have a lot of humidity. It's going to cause some problems.
Because it could easily kill more people? Seems pretty obvious to me. Seems the only alternative is for them to drive 35 which will in turn cause accidents as people try to maneuver around them.
I've never found that I would pay what 'most' people would pay for an item. Call me cheap if you will. Does this mean tailored pricing will sell me things for less?
You have to have space to grow it. A vast majority of people on UBI will be in high density housing. They're just starting to look at legalizing in Canada now, and landlords are already calling for it to be illegal to grow in apartments.
I'm saying it's going to be terrible if they allow the kind of automated driving these cars are outfitted for. I'm not looking forward to a future of being behind someone who stops every 40 feet, or drives a maximum of thirty-five, or stays behind a large slow vehicle on the highway giving you two vehicles to pass, gets confused by construction, or generally doesn't drive human. I am a good enough driver that I can anticipate when a person is going to do a stupid thing on the road, but driving behind a robot will be totally different. The way I see this going, it's going to suck. Even worse, the people who drop that much on a vehicle to drive like asses will feel perfectly justified in getting in everyone's way because it's not them doing the driving. If they are to be used on a private roadway then fine, but I hope they don't allow full public use until they are compatible with humans.
No one said anything about woman. If my wife had happened to make enough for us both to live on, I would have been more than happy to be the one to stay home. With UBI at least it is easier to have one parent home.
Exactly. You have to either make it simple for people to come off of welfare or stop complaining about people on welfare. You can't both punish them for leaving it and being on it. Pick one.

I was going to say.. without regulation how do you know the epi-pen won't explode when dispensing the medicine?
...by paying lobbyists to create so much chaos that laws cannot be updated. Or maybe that's just the republicans themselves.

Don't worry, the market will take care of it.

Also, I hope 70 is actually the speed limit where you are driving. Otherwise you are in the way and people are swearing and trying to get around you.
Does it pass slow large vehicles automatically on a single lane highway? And I was referring more to vehicles without steering wheels.
He's a billionaire yet he only paid $38 million in taxes? *gasp*
If they see a snowflake they stop in the middle of the street and wait for you to get out.

they're going to be selling hundreds of thousands of vehicles per year.
LOL!

..or unaffordable.
So I suppose it's all the rich kids that go to poor neighborhoods to cause the additional violent crime. The average mugger is a one percenter?

You couldn't afford to smoke weed all day on UBI.

Also there was more time for child rearing.
People get divorced for tax reasons all the time.
