Yeah, but the wives that you would want to see doing sit-ups in their living room are usually the ones that you would see. It's usually the ones that you wouldn't want to see.
"Sure come on in and I'll be able to tell you how Jesus saved my life. I was a wicked person years ago but Jesus found me and now with daily prayer... hey, where are you going?"
Why would the remaining employees be sole remaining shareholders or am I reading this wrong? Lots of other people and companies can own shares in a company. When a company is starting up and gets outside investors they normally trade a fairly large amount of equity for the injection of money. Public companies can have shares owned by millions of people (especially when a nationalized company such as Air Canada or the British post office first go public and people want to own a part of if). Pension funds and mutual funds own massive amounts of shares in many companies.
So shut down coal and use the money that subsidizes that to subsidize cleaner ways to generate electricity like geothermal, wind, various forms of solar, and even nuclear which don't harm the environment or cause medical problems for people through normal operation. Clean coal is green-washing on an epic proportion. It will require vast amounts more energy to capture CO2 from emissions requiring the burning of even more coal. Never mind how destructive coal mining is in the US.
I doubt that I would be cooking a rat over a charcoal fire since I'm at a computer typing this. I live in a province that uses no coal to generate electricity and we are doing just fine. In fact there are times that we have so much base load generation that we are paying some states to take it from us. It's not a great situation but goes to show that we don't need any of that stinking coal. It's time to get rid of it. Now if we could just get rid of the natural gas generators too.
You wouldn't hit the feedlots but the refineries where the biodiesel is created. There would be a lot fewer of them. You would do the same thing with traditional oil refineries too.
The greater expense of having a smaller reactor in the sub is vastly outweighed by the benefits that it brings, namely the ability to stay underwater for months at a time. Surface ships don't receive this benefit and so the extra expense isn't justified. A surface ship is easily resupplied, well relatively when at sea. A submarine isn't when submerged and thus the need for nuclear power.
Tell that to the folks who generate electricity by burning fossil fuels. They are using the government to fight changes to the market brought about by new technology. And if you want a completely market driven solution then we should stop subsidizing the companies that burn fossil fuels by paying for the damages caused by the pollution generated by them. Burning coal spews out Mercury, Sulfur Dioxide, and many other pollutants yet society pays to clean them up and for any health problems caused by them. We can estimate fairly well how much those costs are so that amount should be paid by those companies back to society. Yes, the price of electricity would go up but then as you said the government shouldn't be picking winners and losers.
Why does it seem like the system spends all of the effort going after the small problem. I would argue that people viewing the pictures are causing less harm than the people making the pictures in the first place. Yes they should have shut down the site but found out where the pictures were uploaded from and gone after the content creators. And not the people who write fictional stories and the cartoons. Those aren't the high priority. While disgusting children weren't harmed in it's creation. Go after the sick f*cks that are hurting kids to create pictures to distribute. They should be the top priority. Stop them and you stop more kids from being hurt by them in the future.
It's the same thing with drugs. Law enforcement seems to be targeting users and the lowest level dealers. But they rarely cause trouble for the higher levels. You may never stop the flow of drugs but you can make it a lot more difficult for them. Start taking out their middle-men and a few higher-ups along with the distribution system and while not eliminating the problem you make drugs more expensive on the street.
Apple isn't going to need to worry about doing a run for California and a run for the rest of the country for very long. If they caved in to this law then every other state and/or the federal government would pass a law requiring this (along with every other country seeing that they could get away with it) and there would only be one phone model to worry about very soon. The one with the back door.
You may now have large exports of agricultural crops but to get those you're pumping so much water out of the ground that it's subsiding so much that bridges and roads need to be replaced. Exactly how sustainable in the long term do you think that is?
I agree with you about people calling Apple but the problem is that once the companies comply the first time for any of these laws anywhere then it opens the floodgates and they will have to comply to all of them. Then we're all screwed.
Maybe you should ask the folks of Newfoundland how well it went for them when they didn't want to cut back on fishing for cod in order to let the stocks regenerate.
It's not just that but stupid legislation that causes by-catch to be thrown overboard instead of being used. Say a boat goes out and has a quota for fish A and in the process they catch a bunch of other fish too. Of course that's going to happen since the nets don't discriminate. Now in the EU if they land with that other fish it counts against them even if they can't do anything with it so they have to get rid of it. All that fish has been killed for nothing. Something should be worked out so that the fish can be used and the fisher isn't penalized too harshly (assuming that they by-catch isn't too much which might indicate that they went out looking for it instead of what they were supposed to be).
What does the solar system look like out at the distance of this suspected planet? One of the reasons for demoting Pluto to dwarf planet status was that it hadn't cleared it's neighbourhood so if this new object is orbiting in an area where there is lots of other materials then it shouldn't be called a planet either.
Would they be able to check everybody's regular mail at a sorting facility if they found that the document had been printed out, a box of envelopes with some missing, and a pack of stamps with some of those missing too and the investigators assumed that the suspect mailed any copies so that they would be at the facility at the time of the search?
All companies take advantage of the methods given to them to reduce the taxes owing. If the governments don't like them then they shouldn't have provided the methods in the first place and change the tax code.
And why would a company pay 30% of it's revenue as tax? What if their margin is only 5% or 6%? Organizations don't pay taxes on revenue but on profit.
So may I assume that you don't make use of any deductions on your income tax? After all you should feel responsible for your impact on society.
Of course it would have been better to just use a mulching mower and put the nutrients from the leaves into the soil instead of sending the leaves into the woods. The problem is some people think they need a perfectly green lawn with absolutely no imperfections.
I think the analogy goes ISIS grew because of Twitter and the car accident wouldn't have happened because it would had been driven if the road didn't exist. Of course with that analogy the woman should sue computer, OS, and phone makers, telcos, and electric companies for letting ISIS having an audience.
The key part of that is on record. Records haven't been around very long compared to people. And they almost went away though vinyl is making a big comeback.
It's the sharing of the data that I have a problem with. Getting the data to avoid collisions or using the GPS to map out my route is great. But I don't want that going to the car manufacturer, whoever made the OS for the car's main computer, or the maker of the on-board entertainment system and whoever they decide to share or sell it to.

Well, if it was so important they would have updated the maps.

Plus with the move to LED street lighting the costs will go down.

Given the rate that soil is being lost with modern farming techniques even composting every person that dies wouldn't replace all of the soil lost.
I never saw any geese around there when I worked there (building 8) but there were lots when I was at CrossKeys (a Newbridge company).

The US wouldn't be second as Canada wasn't the first.
