Who benefits if Hydrogen technology becomes super successfull ? (Spin off from beecee's hydrogen thread)
Indeed +1 Hydrogen may not be the perfect solution, but it is a solution; we can generate far more hydrogen, however inefficiently, than we can lithium.

What taxes a billionaire?
The irony is, they did it legally. Society/people both blame's the poor and feeds off them, billionaire's are people too; if we want them to change, we all have to change. When gambling was illegal, no-one was forced to say "gamble responsibly" and society didn't have to pay for a clinic.

In England we did it by accident, brexit has caused the balance of power to swing in favour of the worker's; if you're a HGV driver you can, almost, write your own ticket and with a dearth of EU worker's to bring in the crops, and save lives via the NHS. The wealthy may even learn the value of money, and eventually the reason for taxes; hopefully enough of them to make a difference. 🤞 Building wall's has it's consequences, we could all learn from that... That's why we need a God/Karma; to put the fear of god/karma, into the idiot's the don't understand why it's better to be nice to the people that help you too live. In an ironic way, being illegal can be profitable... 😇

Why is there a growing movement to deny reality in America?
The internet is full of information, the batshit crazy just want to be right...

Your teacher/village taught you what to boo at... Indeed, a steady decline in critical thinking; would produce a faith in bullshit...

Like it or not, your village taught you how to boo... What's hard is, thinking past why we boo?

What taxes a billionaire?
My apologies to everyone, had a visit from a friend with a bottle of JD. 🤒 But I'm not implying ethical failings in anyone; we all at some point have thrown the first stone. The Diderot effect suggests we're all capable of behaving like a billionaire, I'm just exploring a method of eliminating excuses. Most tax-payer's don't see the point of charity, unless there's a reasonable excuse/sob-story; being a lazy mouse is no excuse, but it is a reason...

We are only human, after all... I don't think you're a troll, I think you're very smart; I'm just asking...

I'm often confused by the economy of thought, perhaps you can explain... Didn't he entertain us???

That's the problem, it's not incorrect... It's just a different version of correct...

The purpose is to explore the nuances of taxes and the value to society for those that don't pay. "Why ethics?" Where would you suggest? OTOH A lot of the infrastructure, rail/road's, canal's, bridge's etc. were built by the billionaire's of their day to facilitate their trade; much like China's belt and road initiative. I'm with you on your "CHIP IN, ASSHOLES.", I just think we need to find a way to persuade them that they're not better than a bin man, just equally useful. The trickle down theory doesn't work, it's an excuse to avoid tax; far more job's are supported by the average tax payer, buying a widget. First we have to understand the parable of the industrious mouse. Why would he/she want too do that?

You should start another topic, if you want to find out...

Is this wise or appropriate?
The point of my fly-by-wire example, is to show a disconect between the pilot and the control surfaces, so, theoretically the proximity of the pilot to the control surfaces is irrelevant. The passengers training, I note, doesn't include flight training.

It's called economics, but I'm loathed to refuse a free ride... But, which button?
-
Is this wise or appropriate?
What button could they push onboard, that's in any way different from the button they push on the ground?
-
Is this wise or appropriate?
Way to miss the point; it's investor's not the tax payer.
-
Is this wise or appropriate?
Way to miss the point... They all have a pilot; they just don't need to be onboard...

Most modern aircraft are fly by wire, so technically they are all capable of being flown remotely. No.
