$2.8 stimulus for a collapsing industry is a lot cheaper that 6 to 12 months of unemployment and food stamps for even just a 5-10% contraction in the automotive industry workforce (a loss of 100,000 to 200,000 jobs).

the nature of benchmarking software makes it very unlikely that a bad ROM would affect the rating. It measures the performance of the CPU, not how bad the software is. Basically, it just runs and times large calculations (its a bit different for GPU performance, but at the same time, that test the GPU and screen size…

Um, brightness and temperature regulation, as well as other office practices, are a huge part of LEED standards. Thew new version of LEED (the one being designed for now) also included mandatory energy monitoring to make sure buildings actually stay on track.
