It really boils down to what a society values. Does it value caring for people and health or does it value hurting people for profit? We have the tools to be caring but in America, we generally don't use them because we value companies

The state also made the wrong call in allowing Uber to operate such a vehicle on public roads and are clearly now trying to distance themselves from that decision by letting Uber off the hook. Both are guilty of criminal negligence but it&#

Watching the road for hours at a time, day in and day out attentively is impossible. No human can do it. You're right that she shouldn't have been in that seat. No one should have as it's an almost impossible task. No one has

Al Capone went to jail for tax fraud. It doesn't mean he didn't kill people or that the comparison is not apt. It's right on point.

Of course, the prosecutor is judge and jury in this case because they are not pressing charges. I'm almost certain uber would be held liable by any jury who heard that they intentionally turned off the braking that could have saved thi

Unbelievable. I wonder how many other self driving cars are out there designed to not brake even when they clearly detect an object in their path. It's ridiculous to rely on a human to intervene in such situations. This was a completel

I agree it's a problem but I see no discussion of housing costs or the costs of completely redoing public transportation. Clearly the author hasn't thought this through. People drive because they can't afford to live where th

There's no difference between a CEO and a gangster apparently. They both ruin lives, kill people, and use contraband cellphones from jail to continue doing so. It's sad that our culture glorifies one but despises another when they

Interesting. This stage light effect also affects my 2007 mbpro which is two generous old. It did take about seven years to develop, but it seems that it's been an issue possibly on past models also that has just gotten worse with the

To be practical, I would allow some transfer of wealth actually but put a marginal tax rate of 100% over say 5 to 10 million, gradually increasing from say 0% at 250k. That seems like a fair compromise. Sure, guaranteeing basic living condi

Are you saying that black people aren't suffering today due to slavery and Jim Crow? How do you explain that the median white household wealth is sixteen times that of black households? Or is that a leftist conspiracy also? https:&#x2

It might be anti your family while being pro 10, 100, or even 10,000 other families, depending on the wealth amassed. That sounds incredibly pro-civilization and pro-society.

In other words, anyone could build a prosperous society on the back of slaves if they have some natural resources to exploit. It's not even a great feat or accomplishment. The legacy of that is still what drives a lot of the economy in

I totally agree with everything except the part where "we're the ones in charge." Popular support for things like national healthcare and time off hasn't yet made those things happen. As long as representatives take mone

Sounds like a win win situation. We get rid of the scummy bail bonds men and we make the sheriff so his job all the while not putting innocent people in jail. Oh, what's that? You'd rather have innocent people in jail rather than

The idea that hard work leads to riches is ridiculous bullshit propagated by the rich who do no work and get rich off the hard work of others. It's beyond stupid, yet ingrained in our culture from the puritan days. It serves to keep pe

With the ubiquitous tracking technology we have these days, why are we still putting innocent people in jail? It's barbaric and unjust. Give them a GPS bracelet and let them go home or wherever they want. Or have we given up completely
