You can’t ban business from passing on their costs to their customers. Australia just tried this by banning businesses from charging a card use surcharge. You really reckon business aren’t going to then just wrap the cost of card service &#

No you don’t. You have 20 years minus one day, as every day elapses. Existing installed solar capacity is degrading at one day per day.

No one cares about you . You’re good mate, you’re rich . Choose a different car for under $5000 then. It’ll still be cheaper than having to buy a new car, plus house, plus solar & battery. Also won’t work for anyone living in a unit &

$20k for the car plus $5k for roof top solar, plus $500,000 for the house to put it on. Or: a $2000 Corolla and the rental home you’re already in.

You’re hung up on the idea that The State should take care of you. That’s never worked out well for anyone. Australia has social welfare, a full funded national disability scheme, and state funded Medicare. They’re all a mess. The welfare

I cycle, ride motorbikes, and drive cars & vans. I’d rather be in flow state while doing any of those, than constantly be yanked out of it because I’m concerned I might be do 3kph over the legal speed limit.

You forgot roundabouts with traffic lights. Here’s one in Australia near Perth: https://youtu.be/h8lhX9Q6Z5g?si=eloUWLcH8q3eJiZH And I’m certain I’ve driven through other roundabouts with traffic lights in other states.
