Re:To fix L.A.'s traffic, we need tolls on Tuesday March 07, 2017 @03:02PM (#13814182)
The article falsely assumes that the HOV lane has spare capacity. During rush hour here all lanes are equally clogged, and sometimes the HOV lane is actually slower than the other 4 lanes. The only way to fix LA traffic with current infrastructure is self driving car pools. If/when they can get to the point in which they are safer than normal drivers, and safe for the riders (crime inside of self driving cars) LA traffic will be solved. This will eliminate the necessity of having a car allowing for increased taxes on car ownership, reducing traffic on the roads.
Re:60M People Are Now Slated to Get $15 Minimum Wage on Tuesday April 05, 2016 @02:33PM (#11433076)
I wouldn't exactly be calling it a victory till we see how this affects labor numbers. Maybe 20M will now be unemployed over the next 5 years.

incredible work
Actually that is exactly what happens. The store gets about a $100,000 cut for powerball
You cant have a remote cutoff option due to lawsuits. What if a zipcar got turned off on the highway and caused an accident, they would be sued
