In the same vein as neither nuclear nor solar are carbon free. However, the emissions are still so low from all of them as to not matter. And with hydro, the emissions would occur naturally.
Actually, multiple types of reactors can take our nuclear waste and convert it to energy, and then leave us very little waste.
That is what UK is counting on.
Geo-thermal and Hydro are ALSO direct, carbon free, base load power source.
However, nuke is the only one that that is not site-specific.
We need more nukes, but not the Gen 3 BS. We need SMRs.
Until all states have legalized it AND are growing their own, it makes little sense to do schedule 1. Once schedule 1 is changed, then anybody can sell their pot to America. China and Drug lords WILL DUMP on America.
And to be fair, the pot that Colorado grows is top notch. So, if they wish to remain that way AND to have lots of future business, they need to allow legalization at state level only, but stop it at the federal level. Can't export out of the state, BUT, neither can it be legally imported.
You should consider following post prohibition and NOT Colorado's model. Colorado allows for retailers to grow the plant locally. Basically, it is creating localized monopolies that grew relatively small amounts of weed, so to increase sales, they sell to out of state or sell the store to those with drug-lords/gang connections. And yes, Colorado has that.
BUT, if you require a clean separation of wholesaler vs retailer, you avoid the local monopoly of better weed, AND will likely see competition drive down prices quickly. In addition, if you only monitor say 300 wholesalers vs 2000 stores, it is easier and cheaper.
CHINA does. That is why no innovation, high prices, and just serving liquor. Basically, CHina can destroy American studios and cause them to sell to China for a fraction of the $. Smart on their part.
China has the US's balls in a vice, not selling to the US will hurt China, but it will hurt the US far FAR more.
LOL. You obviously do not know American manufacturing and our situation. China does NOT have us. Best thing that could happen to America is for us to raise taxes on consumed goods/services based on where the worst part/service comes from. If they emit a lot of CO2, then high tax. With this approach, we get all nations to clean up their CO2. At the same time, since America actually is low emission (with an intelligent normalization of emissions / $GDP ), it would allow the west to re-build rather quickly.
But hey, look around. You can actually find articles written that will support your position, but, they are very far and few in-between and none by experts on China, Daesh, AQ, Russia, etc.
China, Iran and North Korea want somebody who can be easily manipulated. That is trump. Have you listened to him. He screams about BUSINESS with China and Mexico, but the ONLY one that he speaks of addressing is Mexico. Yet, NAFTA has 1 simple quick fix and it would solve EVERYTHING with Mexico trade, while helping them out. But what does Trump say about CHina's invasion into other nation's territory? NOTHING. What does he say about Iran and what he will do? NOTHING. What does Trump say that he will do with North Korea? He will ask China to invade them (kind of like asking America to invade Puerto Rico, or Canada).
ISIS and AQ HATE hillary and anybody connected to O. He has overall done a good job on AQ, but he somewhat screwed up with ISIS. Hillary will send in troops and finish this. That is why Russia wants Trump. He and the neo-cons/tea* will walk away and allow Russia to own it all.
What an idiot. Russia, China, Iran,north Korea, AQ, and Isis have all suggested or outright said they want trump to win. Why do you gop/neo-cons/tea+ type simply own up to that. Heck America's kkk and nazi party are big time behind trump as well.
Well, a big part of India cozying up was because of Nixon and his threat to Ghandi. I could not believe that he actually threatened her with a nuke. How stupid can you be.
The other issue is that India got invaded by China back in the 60s and had to cozy up to somebody since they were surrounded by East and West Pakistan, along with China to the north. So, they picked Russia (who also saw china as a threat).
BUT, India continues to work closely with Russia, and I can tell you that there is nearly 100% chance that most of the Western companies that have been cracked by 'russians' , had just outsourced parts of production (not code, but admin) to India within the previous year. Sadly, ppl like Krebs ignores these issues, and I can not talk further about it. BUT, India is a VERY REAL THREAT to the west.
there are many companies that work with TLAs that do NOT get their security clearances. As snowden and a large number of chinese spies has shown, they are a joke. Instead, by focusing on hiring Whites (non-russian), blacks, and Latinos, they can reduce their risk a great deal.
Im all in favor of preventing race based hiring in NORMAL companies, which accounts for more than 99% of them. However, when it comes to national security, we really need to disregard these kinds of laws. They are KILLING US. LITERALLY.
And BTW, I HAVE dealt with Chinese spies.
Companies dealing with TLA really can not afford to take chances. As such, they need to VET the daylights out of their employees. Worse yet, the gov now does a HORRIBLE job on vetting ppl.
Seriously, German car makers are pouring in BILLIONS in hopes of stopping Tesla.
Oddly, they should be more worried about Chinese car makers since they have the financial backing of the Chinese gov, who will stop at nothing to beat down western companies.
However, within 5 years, it will be apparent to all, that NOBODY WANTS TO BUY AN ICE CAR. That might even apply to ICE based trucks and SUVs.
This company works with TLAs so they are obviously working hard to hire ppl that are NOT SPIES. Yet, we have 2 main types of Spies to be concerned about: Russian and Chinese. Chinese and Indian account for the vast majority of the Asian ppl. Obviously, the CHinese are going to be looked over hard. So, that leaves the Indians. And oddly, within India's military, they are VERY close to Russia. Much closer to Russia than to the west. As such, Indians are going to be looked at as well.
And dept. of Labor is saying that we must hire ppl of which a known quantity is going to be spies.
I have dealt with 1-2 spies already and both were Chinese. I would hate to have Dept. of Labor be able to control a company that deals with national security to this degree.
no. closing nukes is the issue. We desperately need it. Without it, we will continue to burn coal and nat gas just like Germany is doing.
As I have pointed out elsewhere, no nation that has very low emissions is based on solar and wind. It is based on Hydro, geo-thermal, and nukes.
Personally, I'm a fan for wind and solar and actually want to see these keep going, though subsidies are all wrong.
However, wind and solar CAN NOT cover the situation. We NEED to have base-load systems, and since we are not capable of doing full geo-thermal, we MUST have nukes.
However, doing the old gen 3/3+ is a HORRIBLE mistake. Those are not safe enough, too expensive, and are NOT the right solution.
BUT, with the new SMRs, they ARE the right solution. All of them are capable of passive safety and are cheap to install. In addition, the ability to burn up the waste is very important.
ther material is cheap. THe labor is expensive. 20/hr or more for doing that work. In the same length of time that it takes to put the plywood down on the rafters, is about the same length of time for putting down the Tesla Roof. So, no tar paper or shingles, which is money and time. And we just had our roof re-done 3 weeks ago. I forget how many sections, but, iwe have a 2 story 3000 sq feet home, so above average roof. We had 8 guys work on it. Took 1.5 days. That is the second time that we have had this done due to hail. Next time, we will install a Tesla roof which will almost certainly be strong enough to deal with the golf ball size hail that we get.
No, it is NOT shingles. Those ideas are majorly fucked. This will replace the plywood, tar paper/sheathing, AND shingle/metal/tiles.
This will cut the labor costs by 2/3. In addition, it should by stronger than current roof, assuming they build it the way I heard.

tell Texas to raise their taxes.
yeah, since the GOP took over CONgress and our gov, they have slowed things way up. A big part of that is the speed of getting technology out.
Actually, multiple types of reactors can take our nuclear waste and convert it to energy, and then leave us very little waste.
That is what UK is counting on.

Seriously, if they are going overseas and allowing others to manipulate our data, might as well make it Russia. At least you will get better code.

You are VERY mistaken WRT to foreign policy
And here is what Daesh thinks.
This is interesting in that a daesh expert believes that they will attack us like they attacked Paris to influence their election. And Daesh hopes that Trump wins according to them
Finally, This one sums it all up best.
But hey, look around. You can actually find articles written that will support your position, but, they are very far and few in-between and none by experts on China, Daesh, AQ, Russia, etc.

Well, W already showed what he could do. Why do you keep bringing him up? Or were you thinking of the other yellow belly reagan?
Uh no. It was not. The open.group did a number of the protocols that exchange use, but MS took those and did their EEE to them.
What an idiot. Russia, China, Iran,north Korea, AQ, and Isis have all suggested or outright said they want trump to win. Why do you gop/neo-cons/tea+ type simply own up to that. Heck America's kkk and nazi party are big time behind trump as well.

No, I'm the one pushing all the clean items. Solar, Wind, along with geothermal, hydro AND nuke. Without all of these, we can not solve the issue.

So, let's kill all tax breaks for wind and solar as well? U seem to want to destroy America, and mankind, so go all out.
