Yes, I like this. At least in my experiences in USA / Canada, there's a lot of actually able bodied folks, doing nothing for pay. Even if it's not worth the money, they could at least partially contribute to the work of socie

Yes, and regulation prevents them for charging the true cost for peak/constrained energy demand (except in texas where you can get a $16,752 for running your lights) Naturally theres a wide spectrum of options between fixed prices and

Yes, and the point is that we don't need to be constraining our consumption as there's essentially no lack of energy. We need to be increasing our production/capture.

Ok, i guess I was unclear. By guaranteed work I simply meant that people had the choice still. Not forced slavery, but guaranteed optional work for pay, rather than paychecks for nothing. I'm thinking national projects like hoover dam

I agree politically it's a hard change. I'm just speaking about ideal policies at this point. Perhaps a wide retraining program offering. Something like "Hey you've been unemployed for 2 years, you're losing benefit

According to the article, this expectation is actually caused by "green" energy implementations and the shift to climate friendly infra. Mankind should be free to consume as much energy as it wants, but we need to focus on making

first of all it'd be a dedicated emergency line, like 911 to Operations center direct. Second of all, if that is not fast enough, then humans are insufficient too. You cant just magically get people to act (a lot of the time they'

Seems to me a simple regulation like a fire department access in buildings could solve this. eg1: What about a direct line to a 24/7 operations center with cruise? eg2: Or how about a proximal access console controller that allows them

Nice! Yeah there are definitely lower poop/riff raff density if you're willing to walk 15 mins each way. In my experience Muni+Bart is required to have good coverage of places I wanted to go (including Oakland and berkeley). Edit:
