    I can’t imagine Mars soil having any usable nutrients since there are no microbes or any other biological activity. You probably have to bring or produce all fertilization from scr…

    Maybe we should eliminate nationwide regulations on theft and violence too? Let the locals deal with these things since they are local issues. That way municipalities with funding …

    Very true. Especially the petty drug arrests they have to do are poisoning relationships between cops and citizens.

    So we don’t even need to to pay more. Just better management, training and accountability.

    I work in medical devices. I don’t have to take liability insurance to do my job. I get training on FDA regulations and if I don’t follow them I get warned or fired. We also have i…

    If that’s what’s needed to attract reasonable people into the police then so be it. If we aren’t willing to pay for proper training and supervision then we have the police force we…

    "So, we should have the cops take out liability insurance and pay damages?" No, they should get proper training and be held to professional standards.

    At least the municipalities then would have to choose between never ending payouts or fixing things.

    That’s very doubtable. I would guess biggest cost is salaries.

    We may do better than the bankers who like to design fragile systems as long as they can make boatloads of money :)

    It should start up when the renter is not forbidden by government to make money to pay rent.

    This would make sense to me. Why are some businesses being shut down and have to deal with income losses and others like landlords can keep going and demand their income? This seem…

    How long does something have to sit still to take a picture? Is there an exposure time?
