I know, Congress should be ashamed of themselves. We would be hard pressed to find a group that had a worse understanding of technology

I believe libel laws already exist, but when you're in Congress you must make laws in a reactionary way otherwise considered thought and reason might begin to permeate the law. We wouldn't want that.

I don't see any evidence to support the assertion that government is more efficient, but I may have missed it in the article. Could you cite your sources please?

I'm not sure why we wanted Google building housing anyway, seems like a perfect opportunity for them to blend their real estate and advertising holdings in a perverse way. This seems like the best possible outcome.....

I guess, according to this article, car insurance companies are encouraging people to drive recklessly and kill others in their vehicles, simply by providing them with insurance against the bodily injury of others. I'm not sure how the author doesn't see the parallels between any insurance that guards against reckless behavior and the NRA's insurance. To be clear I'm not a user of their insurance or a member of their organization, just finding the lack of introspection in the argument used in the article appalling.

Just do a little bit of research into the fuel efficiency of various sized vehicles, the correlation is not direct and some larger vehicles get better gas mileage than smaller vehicles strictly due to efficiency. A small inefficient motor and a large efficient motor may yield the same mpg, but the large efficient motor is extracting more power from the same fuel source. And that's not even getting into diesel versus gasoline.....

/me peers at my $300 Samsung S10e bought 3 years ago, my $1200 Asus ROG Strix laptop, and my $400 TCL 4k TV and wonders if your quoted prices are inflated merely to justify your own pre-order. Not sure where your buying stuff but you should really shop around, those prices are horrendous...
