There are public transport systems which work very well in sparsely-populated areas. The "Karlsruhe System" or "Karlsruhe Method" describes a system where regional trams travel through town and city streets, allowing travellers to board on one street and travel to another town or city.
This excuse about density doesn't really hold water, as even the densely populated areas of the US are not served in any meaningful sense. Something more is afoot.
It doesn't run on your schedule, though - traffic jams still occur, and you have no guarantee of convenient parking at the other end. As for comfort, I don't know how a car can beat travelling at 180MPH drinking a beer:)
What if the airport operating generates money for other parts of the economy? That way it could operate at a loss but still be a net benefit for the government's tax coffers. That's how infrastructure works - it is often directly unprofitable, but the profits to society (and the government) come later. This is how healthcare works in other countries, for example - it's understood that a sick workforce isn't going to be generating much tax revenue, and if money is spent on keeping the workforce healthy, it will be recovered through taxing their productivity. As long as less money is spent on healthcare than generated by the healthy individuals that result from it, it's earning money even if each and every hospital is in the red.
You mean monuments dedicated to a man who didn't want monuments dedicated to him, erected long after the subject of their rememberance as a protest against equality in law? Those ones?
Direct democracy is even more dangerous. It just takes a well-crafted series of facebook posts to convince millions they're in danger, and their votes can be swayed.
There doesn't seem to be anything suspicious in the video. One guy admits to DMs being analysed by software, one guy admits to reviewing reported DMs and Tweets, one guy admits to tracking cookies, one guy admits to being able to fire (or even sue) members of staff for violating privacy rules. It's full of quick-cuts, of statements without context, with dubious edits in the middle of sentences. This is hardly a smoking gun.
They had city internet in scandinavian countries back then, and they were (and are still) better served than areas with this bizarre idea of competition you seem to be hankering for...
Yes, a representative democracy (or "democratic republic" as you put it) is a form of democracy. The two are not the same, but the latter is a form of the former.
People interested in cryptology are sometimes interested in other sorts of locks, as was the person in question. It's quite possible he was trying to escape from the suitcase and failed. Others have died in similar fashions, so you'll need more evidence than that to show something suspicious.

This is about emissions in cities, and there are very few power stations in city centres.

"It takes very little to kill Germany's economy and, with it, the whole EU." - cute.
That's not how the EU works, nor how privacy and consumer protection works in the EU.

Those aren't scientists, however convenient for your argument that might have been.
A lot has changed in 20 years - go back and read some of the threads. A lot less negativity, more acceptance.
It's not about borders but the jurisdictions operating within them. The EU has very strong data protection laws, the US does not.
A representative democracy (which you call a "republic") is a form of democracy. You might want to read what these words mean before using them :)

The anonymous cowards are out to get you, so you just might be on to something...
That link has very little to say about JavaScript - did you mean to post it?
Why don't you work on fixing your democracy, instead of trying to cripple 911? It sounds like your priorities are entirely messed up.

Are you factoring in the increase in house value?
I'd love to think the history died with our granparents' generation, but that's wishful thinking.
Take a look at whether the republican agrees... If you dare!

Then you can go easily cite it to back up the claim you made :)
According to whom?
