The judges are hiding behind a bunch of legalese, out of cowardice. Everyone agrees that is an idiot Ford waging a dumb culture war, and putting lives at risk. At least the first judge called it the way it is, and had some guts.
If judges don't stand up to stupid people, a major and fundamental aspect of democracy is gone.
The Democratic party is too big of a tent, trying to merge blue collar workers, academic hippies, and champagne liberals. It doesn't work, it is failing as a party.
Livestock accounts for about 20% of greenhouse gasses and 65% of agricultural land is used to grow feed for animals.
It can't always be the carrot ... sometimes it needs to be the stick.
Still, people eating too much meat.
You're going to flip when you find out that some people eat 10 x 6oz of meat a day.
That's the problem with the politics of the USA
One group wants higher prices of meat, and gas. Laws about safe working conditions. Environmental laws about dumping chemicals.
Second group wants lower prices on everything, wants bigger trucks, bigger houses, overseas vacations 4x year, eat more meat.
Though they both complain, they're complaining about two incompatible things.
...and it screwed EVERYTHING up;
People can't afford kids because the rents are too high,
Rents too high for cool spaces to hangout in, so everybody's at home and miserable.
Rents too high for a cheap restaurant to open, so everybody's mad and pointing fingers,
Can't find daycare, because it's too expense for the daycare to rent a commercial property,
You really need two different laws about driving, one set for urban, and one set for rural. In large downtowns, the speed limits are under 40km/h, and a start/stop traffic. In such places an electric golf cart would be fine. Getting city drivers out of gas guzzling SUVs should be a priority. You don't need a dually pickup in downtown Toronto.
Electric golf carts should be legalized in most major cities like Toronto. It's good enough for the city, to commute and get groceries.
For rural areas in Canada people need very fuel efficient transport. Encourage people to use motorcycles in good weather. Allow Kei trucks.
Also for rural kids:
Sweden: agricultural vehicles allows kids 15 and older to drive cars without a proper driver's licence, as long as the vehicle has been altered to have a maximum speed of 30 kilometres per hour.
France: sans permis cars are not allowed to go faster than 45 km/h, but can be driven by anyone with a license.
The vast majority of car trips are about 10km. A bicycle would work for most of them. I personally think that electric golf carts in major cities should be legalized. They'll be the ideal grocery getter, and short commuter vehicle. Speed is limited to 40km/h on them.
The car industry spends billions of dollars a year convincing people that cars are freedom. That you can drive anywhere and do anything in a car. Sadly the reality is that most of the time people are stuck in traffic or looking for a parking space, in cities. Once you start thinking out the car mentality, you realize you can hop on a train for a vacation, do most of your shopping close by if you live in a city.
Harder to shot down a sub? Almost all countries can now make missiles that travel at Mach7+, 3x faster than fighter jets can fly. Like a Porshe vs. a Beetle, the Beetle doesn't stand a chance.
We wrote a Charter of Rights and Freedoms, those words are real, the judge just dismissed it. The Charter of Rights and Freedoms is a useless piece of paper because these judges did not stand up for it.
