  1. Re:Not surprising and can you blame them? on Emissions Scandal Expands: Mercedes-Benz, Honda, Mazda, and Mitsubishi (theguardian.com) · · Score: 2

    And you wonder why there are so many regulations. It's because of these circumstances that the government has to SPELL EVERYTHING OUT, or business will act like little children and say, "well you didn't say take of my cloths before I get in the shower."

    Moron.

    " It's a leap to say that differences between the tests and "real driving" represent fraud, until it's proven that the cheating mechanism is actually there (as it is in VW)."

    Hey Potsy, they found cheating. You even referenced it in your post. FTA:

    "...carmakers designed vehicles that perform better in the lab than on the road. "

    So yeah car manufacturers are gaming the system.

    Go back and read about the issue, then post.

  6. You do realize science is the method by which you investigate not the subject of study.

    You can stick your head in the ground and ignore economics but since economics affects everything in your life, you do best to pay attention to it.

    Really Potsy? That's who you complain to moron. The FCC regulates TV and if you don't like the content, you complain the FCC. The FCC look into it and if the network is in violation, the network gets fine.

    If uber would stop pretending they are not a taxi service and followed the regulations that govern that industry. uber does not want to follow the regulations and claims they are not a taxi service. All the dick riding in the world doesn't change this simple fact. So change your ways or fuck off. I don't have time for little shits who try to game the system by pretending they are innovating.

    Listen troll, uber is not a taxi service. If they were competing on the same terms you would have a point but they do not. uber wishes to avoid the laws which taxi services operate under. uber wants to skirt the laws period. So fuck off.

    FTA: "...has warned the USA risks falling behind other nations because its government, and one of the candidates for the Republican and Democrat nominations for the US presidency, have a clear digital agenda."

    He said government. The U.S. government does not have a technology policy and prefers to leave matters up the market. The problem is the market doesn't care about policy or direction just about profits. As long as they can shift units that's all that matters.
