Why would you ask the state which caused the problem with welfare to use more state sponsored and regulated training which usually doesn't do much good because the people would much rather not work and get paid anyway.
In a welfare state, the people are paid whether they work or not. The people who do work get taxed to support those who don't so they stop working.
Taxes are also applied to businesses at a usually much higher rate (progressive taxation) so in order to stay in business they have to automate as much as possible and layoff older workers who are less productive who then go on welfare.
There is little incentive to train workers in the sometimes very high skills needed to service the automation of the remaining businesses. Those who have the incentive, those who are naturally curious and learn high skills in spite of the educational obstacles put in their way by the public school system, will see the landscape and escape to other places where the pay is better and the tax burden perhaps isn't as high.
This leaves the welfare state without the people who are still needed to service the automation of government. Business can't find qualified workers who are willing to work for the meager wages that the business can pay after the state extracts its taxes so the business will eventually go out of business.
To carry this progression to it's final end, even the government will run out of people and businesses to tax and it will finally sink into collapse.
If you don't believe me just take a look at the result now playing out in Venezuela.
I would say that nowadays just about every case is about trampling upon the Bill of Rights which in my humble opinion is exceptional and deserves nullification. The Ballot Box has proven over and over that it doesn't work because people, by and large, have been trained in the public school system that makes them into good little sheeple.
I'm just your average asshole who's seen the destruction of and government nullification of the people's rights.
Exhaust valves are usually very hot and any water touching them will probably warp them to the point that the engine will stop running due to lack of compression. I once had a motorcycle which got warped valves because the exhaust pipes came off while driving and the cold air entering the short distance between where the pipe attached to the hear and the valve warped it.
It's not a fun thing to repair.
I/C engines run on heat. any excess cooling causes them to run badly, if at all.
And your point would be? A tax credit IS a subsidy in that the taxpayer doesn't have to pay it to the government and in some cases may even get a refund!
If the device is in warranty then it's the manufacturers responsibility to repair or replace it assuming it hasn't been subjected to abuse which would void the warranty.
If the device is out of warranty due to expiration or abuse then the owner has every right to attempt repair. The manufacturer no longer has a say and the owner has all the power/responsibility for resulting "fire, explosion, radiation, hearing or vision loss, or children swallowing small parts."
The manufacturer has no obligation to supply repair procedures or to repair the product but the owner may repair or contract with a third party to repair. Caveat Emptor.
Any law which tries to force a manufacturer do anything it has not freely contracted to do is just plain wrong.
It is printed by the Federal Reserve and loaned to the government to pay for the nearly 2/3 of federal expenditures is will soon have. The federal budget will never be balanced. The amount of spending that isn't covered by taxation is made up with debt money which ensures that every man, woman and child is a slave to the Federal Reserve and it's owners.
Virtually ALL of the studies that "prove" that vaccines are safe and effective are done by the pharmaceutical companies that produce the vaccines. There is an incentive for them to emphasize positive results and to suppress negative results. This is a FACT.
Whenever independent studies are done that find some vaccines are just a teensy bit more dangerous or less effective that what the pharmaceutical company says the data is largely ignored because they don't have the media companies as stockholders.
Basically it's just a further increment of creeping socialism which will eventually end in revolution and ruin and decline of everything that made America great to begin with. Anyone with half a brain that wasn't schooled in what passes for education in the public school system will instantly recognize this as a silly idea. I'm nearly 66 years old so I grew up when the public school system actually taught people something useful. However education now teaches garbage and rewards failure as much as success. More welfare schemes such as Basic Income will simply reinforce the idea that honest work is for suckers.
Libertarians believe in the Non-Aggression Principle. (Look it up) In one case, my car my rules as long as I don't employ violence against patrons it's my business. In the other case it's simple violence of a man against his wife. Actually even the concept of the language is wrong. A man cannot own a woman nor vice versa. Nor can a man simply rape his wife anytime he likes. Rape is violence.
Your example is just silly.
Forcing somebody to pick up somebody against their will is simple slavery. Just because I may be operating on public streets doesn't make it not slavery.
Forcing a business that caters to the public to bake a wedding cake for a gay wedding is slavery. Just because the business caters to the public doesn't make it not slavery.
Those who would initiate violence to force somebody to do something they do not wish to do is a criminal. It doesn't matter if it's in a private home, on a public street on on the moon.
Except in the case of Government which constitutionally cannot discriminate, laws which attempt to regulate how people regard each other will always fail. Eventually people wake up and realize that these laws are stupid and that in a lot of cases discrimination is rational and should be protected. Having male and female public rest/locker-rooms just makes common sense. A company having female drivers and catering only to female riders just makes common sense. Trying to legislate against common sense is stupid.
I have no problem with having male/female/whatever restrooms however. It's up to the owner of the property how he accommodates his/her/whatever customers. If it's MY car I can decide who and what sex, color and/or what part of town I operate(period) Just as I can decide whether or not to work with a taxi service that discriminates. You can't fix stupid.
Isn't it interesting how much government control is being put in place to "protect" us from the terrorism caused by the government control of other countries.
This may well be true in 10 years. Predictions like these have a bad habit of failing. Will it be true forever? Maybe not. It depends on whether the economics work out. Currently the total efficiency just isn't favorable. The range isn't there and may never be there. My VW TDI (Yes, I know.) goes over 500 miles on one 14.5 gallon tank. Show me any EV that will go 500 miles on one charge and sells for under $30K. BTW I can do that and still have all of the power at the end of the tank as I had at the beginning. No need to drive 45 mph either.
I haven't heard what a new set of batteries costs for a Tesla but I bet it isn't cheap. Also Tesla has never made a profit and if it wasn't for government subsidies they would be out of business. It kind of reminds me of the ethanol scam.
I shouldn't need an overhaul for at least 500,000 miles. When I bought the car I asked the service manager how far the VW TDI would go before it needed an overhaul. He said, "I don't know. We've never had to overhaul one."
From a Constitutional view, because the TSA is a government agency and being in possession of a weapon or other contraband is an arrestable and punishable offense I object to the searches and patdowns on 4th amendment grounds. However if the searches were conducted by the airlines themselves as a condition of accessing their property and there were no criminal results from being in possession of said property then I wouldn't have a problem with it.
As it is, it is an unconstitutional restriction on the right to travel unmolested by government thugs.
I think only diesels older than 1990 (don't quote me.) are exempt. My 1989 Dodge diesel truck is dirtier than heck and doesn't have to get tested for anything. I have to get my VW tested every 2 years. My wifes gasser is exempt for 5 or six years I think. It's only a year old though. I just renewed my tags so I have a year to figure out what to do. Maybe somebody will hack a cheater program or I can move out of state which is looking like a better option than living in the People's Republic of Taxifornia.
Most trucks are diesel and emit visible carbon smoke that riles people up. They think that it is polluting the air more when in actuality the carbon in the smoke is a solid particle and gets precipitated out of the air quickly. It's the stuff you can't see that is the problem.
My VW doesn't emit anything visible at all BTW and you cannot smell the diesel characteristic of many big trucks. The NOX may be a problem but I have yet to suffer from it at all and I HAVE asthma.
This is correct. I have never seen 42 MPG in actuality. I drive 75-80 mph on the highway so my mileage is more like 34 mpg. I can go over 500 miles on one 14.5 gallon tank of diesel which is pretty darn good for a car which has excellent performance and handling. Unfortunately my bladder won't go 500 miles so I have to stop at least twice without buying fuel for each time I do. I feel guilty about using the facilities so I usually buy a big diet coke which just fills my bladder sooner. Oh what to do???
I suppose I'll have to get my firmware updated which will cut my performance down. I could decline the recall but then I probably wouldn't be able to pass the emissions here in CA to get my tag renewed.
Thank you for saying my theory is strong. You have said nothing however to disprove it. There is ample historical evidence that shows that democracies eventually destroy themselves or become so weak that they are easily destroyed by invaders. The U.S. is very strong militarily but it's culture is weak and it's economy is one financial crisis from complete collapse. The people have voted themselves bread and circuses. Soon they will have neither.

People Please!!!!
Learn the accurate definition of the word "decimate".
This is from Latin which means to kill or punish every tenth man. This is 1/10th at most.
People generally use the expression to mean almost ALL which is very incorrect.

I'm sure most everyone has heard all the legal theories about why the Income Tax is being applied illegally so I won't belabor the point.
Taxation is theft.
From a Constitutional view, because the TSA is a government agency and being in possession of a weapon or other contraband is an arrestable and punishable offense I object to the searches and patdowns on 4th amendment grounds.
