Yes, somebody still needs to watch over the system (I, too, believe a pilot should know how to fly an airplane), but basically it's hands off, and the numbers prove we are much better off for it. Check out the stats some time. We should all be pretty impressed considering how one little mistake can kill hundreds in a millisecond.
You want full control? You can't handle full control! Nobody can. Self driving cars will save thousands of lives. It will be that much safer. The proof is in the airline industry. Operator error is by far the most important factor in all accidents.
Then vote for 'relevant' ones, and quit yer belly achin'.. You people are so sad... And if you've seen civil wars, you should know damn well it's back to the same old shit when it's over, except with a lot more dead people and wrecked buildings..
Oh stop it... Anybody who was half awake knew that Obama was no different from the rest. And when he confirmed it, he was reelected anyway. People sleep through the elections like they do in between them, and wait for their choices to be hand fed, so screw them. It's their own damn fault when 98% of them vote for the status quo. People have to look beyond the propaganda. If they don't, then there is little, if any hope. Nobody is going to do it for them. We are on our own here, and it's best to get wise to that if you want to see any progress at all. Try testing the system before crying about it being broken. And understand the foibles of majority rule.
Yeah right, they are putting a gun to your heads and forcing you to vote for their candidates. I wish you people could hear yourselves. I don't know if you would laugh or cry. Your 'only one extremely painful solution' is complete bullshit. Why don't you go visit Egypt or Syria or Somalia to see what that looks like? You haven't even begun to test the system you have at your disposal. So save your breath.
But unless you vote for different people, and vote them out when they screw up, you will accomplish nothing. They won't be spoon fed to you by mass media. You have to seek them out, and vote them in. There is no other peaceful alternative. They will have you shooting at each other while they laugh all the way to the bank. That's your global, gangster run politics in a nutshell.
You honestly believe the PMs are really upset? Please... these people are trying to keep their jobs. They get all populist and stuff, then go about business as usual when all the 'furor' dies down. Then they will vote again for even worse laws and repeat the cycle. Jesus! This stuff is as old as the hills, and the voters swallow it up, over and over. However, if you're enjoying the charade, then by all means, carry on. Who am I to argue with fools?
Politics: (from Greek: politikos, meaning "of, for, or relating to citizens") is the practice and theory of influencing other people on a civic or individual level. (From wiki, because, what the hell)
I'm sorry, I just got done with another guy who thinks I don't understand the common meaning of words. Two times in one day is a bit much.
Yes, well, It's all for the entertainment of the viewing audience anyway. Nevertheless, he was doing well at playing the part of the fool.. And maybe you don't understand the meaning of 'commerce' either, considering your implication there:-)
Yeah, that's right. I was advocating bringing back some 80 year old fanciful dream to replace our incredibly safe, reliable (despite its fragility) system we employ today. What was I thinking? Let's just call the whole thing off and head to the beach.
1. The activity of buying and selling, esp. on a large scale. 2. Social dealings between people.
Once again., tell me where that excludes the government... Your attitude leaves a little something to be desired. But thanks for playing. It was very enlightening.
The shortest way... is through the planet's core. Tunnel boring machines, a little slow, but eventually your carcass will get there. Whether you're still living in it is for a different thread.
Or Begin or Sadat... Funny how this thing goes to some of biggest war makers since the Big One, WWII...
The Nobel is as ironic as the Pulitzer, to be honored by the biggest name (maybe the second biggest, after Hurst) in yellow journalism is really worth reaching for. With 'friends' like these..

We all have full control of driving our cars.
To claim that precludes any understanding of physics.
Yes, the change does indeed have to come from within. There is no other way.

Okay, sounds like another vote against majority rule.. If we can enough people to vote that way we can change to some other system...

Faux outrage for faux news... Don't believe any of this crap. It's all a big show
As long as they don't have to cancel the F-35 contract to fund it... :-/
You mean 'crabs', right?

Some things progress very slowly. And with politics being such a big obstacle, not much is going to happen any time soon.
Heheheh... got me...
The old corny response is that given a penguin is a bird, and a bird can fly, therefore a penguin can fly.
You seem to have doubts... Landings aren't so smooth, but they can still do it more than once.
And don't make me start on Arafat.
