Right, a waiter could do all sorts of things to contaminate food but doesn't require licensing. Regulations and investigation are sufficient. The same could easily been done for barber shops. Enforcement can also be done via torts. Ins

but the problem was that we reversed the order. We should have gone to moon in the late 80s rather than build the shuttle, after having built a ton robotic probes and having much better automation. Imagine where we would be if we'd had

Not really - because the pools are collections of individual miners that each can switch which pool they participate in on a whim. There aren't some much "owners" as facilitators. In practice we've already seen this, whe

The idea would be for drivers to in some way set the price - not riders.

I don't the situation is analogous. Amazon would be similar to Uber if they set the price for hit tasks. But they don't the hit submitters can set their prices and there is a vibrant market driving to certain price levels. If Uber
