Here's a thought, how about corporation start funding these technology initiatives themselves like their suppose to instead of sucking on the government teet. You know, you could redirect some those profits back into R&D instead of frittering it away on investors. You wanted a free market, started behaving like one.
"The vaping industry, as well as traditional tobacco companies, are also gearing up for a lengthy fight with the F.D.A. over the campaign by the agency’s commissioner, Dr. Scott Gottlieb, to slash levels of nicotine in traditional cigarettes to nonaddictive or minimally addictive levels."
"The panel found evidence among studies it reviewed that vaping may prompt teenagers or young adults to try regular cigarettes, putting them at higher risk for addiction..."
"More intriguing was the report’s finding of moderate evidence that youths who use e-cigarettes before trying tobacco, are more likely to become more frequent and intense smokers."

Pay for it yourself Amazon! Bunch of free loading hippies, always wanting free stuff...funny how Capitalism requires Socialism (government subsidies) to work...
It does? That exceeds that about of tax breaks subsidies? In reality the ROI is non existent. It's a very poor investment. Now if Amazon covered its own bills....
You do know that water is used to turn a turbine to generate electricity in nuclear power plant. The heat from fission reaction heats water to steam that turns a turbine that generates electricity. Heat from a nuclear reaction is not directly turned into electricity. There's an intermediary step, conversion of heat into mechanical energy. That's where water comes in.
So without a proper explanation of how this reactor works, people would assume water is used to turn a turbine (or piston in this case) to generate electricity.
This reactor uses a Stirling engine. A Stirling engine "is a heat engine that operates by cyclic compression and expansion of air or other gas (the working fluid) at different temperatures, such that there is a net conversion of heat energy to mechanical work." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...
So the heat from the fission reaction essentially compresses/expands gas that moves a piston to generate electricity. In this case water is not needed
You might want to do some research first before spouting off like a jackass.
“Paris is more feasible than I thought before I started out on this,” Cox says. “It's feasible now to avoid 2 degrees, whereas I would have said before that it was pretty much unlikely that you were going to do that.”
Except the Paris accords do nothing to avoid the 2 degrees change. All agreed emissions reductions will still exceed 2 degrees. It did not nothing accept allow a great photo-op for politicians who can pretend they did something.
Oh fuck off and die jackass. How much money did it cost Facebook to EXCLUDE an add from people's pages who were not between the ages of 25 and 36. Think ass-hole think.
Since you refused to read the article:
"The promotion was set to run on the Facebook feeds of users 25 to 36 years old who lived in the nation’s capital, or had recently visited there, and had demonstrated an interest in finance. For a vast majority of the hundreds of millions of people who check Facebook every day, the ad did not exist." https://www.propublica.org/art...
How's that ass-hole.
LMOL go study how government works moron. Laws passed by Congress need to be operationally defined by the different government agencies. They are not step by step instructions. Also, the different government agencies have authority granted to them by law. What often happens, is when a government agencies enacts a rule, certain groups raise objections and it goes to the courts to decide if these rules are lawful.
That's how government works.
Also, you cannot unilaterally undue rules. There would need to be justification for the change. As yet, the FCC has yet to present evidence for the change.
You're confused about what "Representative Government" means. It's suppose to represent the will of the people, not the will of corporate sucking civil servants.

Watch nicotine addition sky rocket....
Heroin is an opiate moron. Do you have a specific opiate in mind?
Then why does the vaping industry oppose reducing levels to nonaddictive or minimally addictive levels....
Really?

They are discriminating because unless you were between 25 to 36 - YOU DIDN'T SEE THE AD. Do you get it now....

Keep waiting. Still waiting for evidence to be presented, some two year after they started investigating Trump....
