they should be paying proportionally to the damage they cause

Good news, electricity is already taxed. Driving larger EVs already costs more in taxes than driving smaller, more efficient EVs.

We don't need more government tracking of our every move.

Lots of less expensive housing in the suburbs and country, go live in them. The reduced noise and air pollution is great.

Yeah, it's incredibly important that resources like Wikipedia remain neutral. I'm glad more people are paying attention to this now.

Less about people being too stupid and more about people just not seeing the point. The average person touches the AC/Heat switch only a few times a year.

I personally love the days where it's cool enough at night to open the windows and get the house temperature down. Means the AC the next day doesn't have to do nearly as much (and thus my electric bill isn't as high).

Average citizens banding together into interest groups is a pretty common way to get things passed, and this chart agrees.

If a buyer opens with a suggestion on a place to meet and another opens with 'is it available', who is going to get messaged back? I can tell you who I would message.

Offer a price, or agree to the price and suggest where to meet. 1-2 sentences.

Unfortunately it is true, South Africa discriminates based on race.

Starlink, the satellite internet service operated by Musk's SpaceX, has been unable to enter the South African market due to the country's Black Economic Empowerment (BEE) regulations. These laws require that companies providing communication services be at least 30% owned by historically disadvantaged groups to receive an operating license.
