I find it baffling that ideas like "govern compute" are even taken seriously. What the hell has happened to the ideals of freedom?! Does the government own us or something?

I think antibiotics being restricted makes a lot more sense to me than most drug policy. We have a decent understanding of how improper use of antibiotics causes harm to everyone. With most other drugs the harm is a lot less direct (often t

I'm not in the US, but drug politics is pretty similar globally due to the Single Convention of Narcotic Drugs of 1961 and its successors. Asthma inhalers just happen to fall under a prescription requirement in my country like most oth

"The freedom from the scourge of drugs" is why I can't buy an asthma inhaler without paying out the nose to see a specialist that will prescribe it to me. As a result I don't have an asthma inhaler. I feel very free when

It will be about using machines that are 'on the edge'. Like a work animal for most tasks. Chain a few together and have a human control them (or more advanced AI). Another thing to consider is that this type of AI will almost cer

Utilities are weird anyway. A private company provides the service, but pretty much every aspect of the service is heavily regulated by the government. Isn't that basically a government-controlled company in that case? Why not just hav

But you don't need DNA to prove it though. You have interacted with other people in the past. Parents, siblings, relatives, school mates, teachers, bosses, medical records, taxes etc. If imperfect is fine then all of these are options

People from other jobs are potentially in jeopardy for negligence though. If a truck driver makes a mistake driving a truck they could very well go to prison. Also, judges can be malicious too.

I don't think they would make any real difference. The main problem is the voters. Apathy, misplaced interests, buying into lies etc are all things that negatively affect the outcome regardless of the system.
