Just a bunch of tubes with valves and pumps.  Oil is pumped through to various pumping stations.  Valves direct the flow.  You lose about 1/4 of the supply through leaks.  Voila, you moved some oil and ruined some swamp/waterway’s.  

Speaking of electric pickups and politicians that tie themselves to them, how’s Lordstown Motors doing these days?

While it will cost less to build, companies have stock prices to inflate through growing revenue, so don’t expect costs to consumers to fall. 

I cannot imagine that the rate of charge would be....well spectacular.  It may add a few miles for every 20 driven. 

I’ve been flummoxed by Toyota’s slow response to EV’s, even PHEV’s. It is as if this is going to be a case study in future business classes on how not to go out of business like Toyota did in 2030.

Do they make desirable cars, no. Are people stupid consumers that pay for a badge, even if the rest of the car is a steaming pile of shit, yes.  Even if a Kia is the right answer, they will still buy the BMW. 

or those that use black bars that can be highlighted to show the text underneath.  

FSD is the greatest scam ever. It’s non-transferable. It’s not part of the car.  It is basically you give Tesla $10k free money.  People are fucking stupid.  I will say I agree with Tesla that optical sensors should be primary for autonomy, but we are a long-long-long way off from having the computational side to…

I cannot tell if this is satire or real.  What a time to be alive. 

Taxes are a set rate and are a 3 second Google search away. Titles are a set price that are a 3 second Google search away. So the only way to interpret your drivel is that “we need to rip off people to make ends meet”.

Well you can ask all the rural Appalachians that have let oil & gas fuck their drinking supplies and now their kids are suffering long-term health effects how great things are. 

Brought out of poverty, or brought to a point to become useless consumers while actively destroying their livelihood to shift wealth to fewer individuals?  Poverty is only defined by those that have wealth.  Reminds me of the Mexican fisherman story.

I bet its more that the bosses were getting a cut of revenue and a shield of plausible deniability.  

All this for some cellphones. People are willing to kill/be killed to protect a private corporations profits.

South Africa has a massive wealth disparity problem. Communities are separated by 20 meters and yet one has electricity and water infrastructure, the the other has none of the above.

His partner was only 4th day on the job.

That’s why they created the Xennial designation. You have more in common with millenials than Gen X. These hardline cutoffs of generations is so misleading. Those born early/late in the generation cycle have more in common the the preceding/posterior generation. Hell the current generation is going to have to have a…

So what you’re saying is that laissez-faire capitalism is against national interests?

So your solution is to use taxpayer funds to fund these factories?  So who gets to keep the revenue from these said fabs?  Socialize the cost and privatize the profits?

LOL! I bet you couldn’t even define socialism. Also, capitalism is currently actively destroying the planet to make a few people rich.
