What I've read indicates otherwise, i.e. that a conventional design is more efficient. Planes already have plenty of lift; making the whole plane a lifting surface does not make it more efficient.
Reboots necessarily scramble the storyline and fill the universe with contradictions, otherwise they wouldn't be called reboots. Fans do not want reboots. They want grand new adventures based on characters, actions, and physical properties of the original films.
That's why midichlorians were such a horrid blunder. The force was introduced as a mystical energy field, but the mysticism was removed by giving the force a mechanical-biological basis.
G.W. Bush failed to stop the banking-sector crash in large part because a Democrat Congress prevented repealing Democrat-passed Clinton-era banking laws. Among other things, those laws (and those who implemented them) forced banks to make bad loans.
So your plan is to ban convenient plastic tableware and not blame the slobs who throw it on the ground rather than disposing of it properly. Typical leftist response: punish honest providers of useful goods, let the real villains go unpunished. It's what's to be expected; responsible people are generally conservative and pick up after themselves.
Thermally, brick is a horrible building material. It's 6 times more conductive than wood, 20 times more conductive than foamed plastics. Cracks frequently develop between blocks.
Brick construction is expensive, both in material costs and labor. Without reinforcement, it's unsuitable for earthquake regions.
"The Greatest Generation" did not teach their children well. I've heard it many times: "We sent our children to Sunday School to teach them morals." Very few parents challenge the views of official teachers.
...the 1800s. Hear of the "robber barons" of that time? The term was not spuriously given.
Historian John Tipple has examined the writings of the 50 most influential analysts who used the robber baron model in the 1865-1914 period. He argues:
The originators of the Robber Baron concept were not the injured, the poor, the faddists, the jealous, or a dispossessed elite, but rather a frustrated group of observers led at last by protracted years of harsh depression to believe that the American dream of abundant prosperity for all was a hopeless myth....Thus the creation of the Robber Baron stereotype seems to have been the product of an impulsive popular attempt to explain the shift in the structure of American society in terms of the obvious. Rather than make the effort to understand the intricate processes of change, most critics appeared to slip into the easy vulgarizations of the "devil-view" of history which ingenuously assumes that all human misfortunes can be traced to the machinations of an easily located set of villains - in this case, the big businessmen of America. This assumption was clearly implicit in almost all of the criticism of the period
Without regulation of some kind what prevents a manipulative con artist from exploiting a family's emotional and desperate state?
Your implied claim does not apply. There are already laws against fraud, and against various forms of homicide.
If after very careful consideration if we don't think you're capable of making a decision for yourself, then we have a duty to protect you from exploitation.
You may have a duty to try, but you do not have either the duty or the right to act against me to prevent me from doing what I think is right for myself.
How many people would die if all drug companies stopped making drugs? Do you think that giving people a way to stay alive is morally wrong? Do you expect people who support human live to do so at a loss to themselves?

Once again, we will see the French engineering dominance represented by the Citroen 2CV and Renault Dauphine.
That's just a once-in-a-lifetime event. Students need phones daily to set up drug buys.
It's one thing to read it in a book. It's quite another to be grossed out on screen.
Top grossing films is a bogus metric. The numbers should be corrected for "inflation" and the size of the population able to see the film.

Wrong. Power dissipation is proportional to frequency if the voltage is unchanged.
I don't care what you call it, it's armed robbery.
The difference between socialism and communism is that communism is open about its use of violence.
That's right, stick your fingers in your ears and shout "lalalala I can't hear you!"
Certain physical attributes continue from generation to generation based on genes, just as they do among breeds of dogs.
That situation is unjust and inherently unstable.
Well hello there, Mr. Straw Man.
Of course not; you've built a contradiction into your claim. As soon as you use the word "system", you've removed yourself from the free market.
Health care circa 1840 was not a system, it was individuals dealing with doctors. In that time, that worked just fine.

Another vote opposing justice.
And that's how disrespect for law spreads.

You do not have the right to prevent me from finding a cure to my illness.
Get together with fifty of your friends to form a mob, and you still don't have the right to stop me.
Get together with ten thousand people and call the group a government, you still do not have the right to prevent me from trying to help myself.
Neither might nor numbers make right.
