    See its really easy, The United States of AMERICA. The country is America and it is made up of a group of United States. Thus American's. If you have an issue with that please dig up Amerigo Vespucci. Canada is is not Canada of America, Mexico is not Mexico of America. Since the USA was intended to operate in a more states right manner. Like an EU but with a bit more power to the central government is makes total logical sense that people living in the states that make up the union are American's Kind of like The United Kingdom is a country that consists of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. In fact, the official name of the country is "United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland." So they are called British not Ukians. See how that works.

    Tesla reports HUGE loss and stock took massive hit. vacuum Tube train was patented in like 1920 or somthing and Elon is so confident in it he hasn't put one penny in it. Toyota pulled out of giga Factory and its profitability is far from certain and SpaceX seems to be doing ok with Googles billion dollar investment. The Solarcity thing is almost a scam. No one lives in their house for 30 years so unless you take the out right payment option you are pretty much a sucker who will be selling their home while still paying for those panels which don't go with you oh and the extra you kick back to the grid belong to Solarcity not you. (even if it is very unlikely you will kick anything back to the grid) AWESOME.

    uh huh you think DOT or FAA is going to allow drones to fly over traffic? at any altitude? as for the other stuff I'm not talking about main transit. I'm talking last mile. Last mile where the drone is dealing with say this https://www.google.com/maps/pl... Or waiting at the security door at one of these zillion places in culver city (or the rest of LA.) or flying lower over house. Or how does it deliver to an apartment building? Block the door or just land and wait? (and be crushed by people pissed off that there is a drone blocking their apartment entrance. I would love to see this in Brooklyn any major downtown area. I would love to be the first person who has a drone fail over my car on the road or my property.

    Oh your right. Just like how Santa monica was forced by the FAA to limit flights into Santa monica Air port. OH WAIT.

    You might want to check on the height of those poles because the SCOTUS rulling quite clearly says. "But, a landowner may make any legitimate use of their property that they want, even if it interferes with aircraft overflying the land." that also means Air craft aren't allowed to interfere with your peaceful enjoyment of your land. IE I like to fly chinese kits and can legally leave them airborne over my property.

    People often forget that the air space over your property to like 300 feet is the property owners and they can and have had people arrested for trespassing for their drones being in their airspace. This has already been to many a court case over air rights. The FAA doesn't even if made legal to fly have the right to say you can fly in a private properties airspace. It would be interesting to see how many nets people put up to their max air space if people start flying drones with valuable stuff over their property. The FAA has ZERO say over your air rights and it varies by state as to how high they go. So they would pretty much be limited to following the roads.
