Good luck finding a stainless steel pan that even weighs as much as a cast iron, let alone more.

Not sure what a capitalist incentive is, but we have plenty of ways to potentially regulate this. Are you asking about technical feasibility of finding the actors responsible for it?
>Do we really need regulations? Yes.
>Why do these things happen? Greed/profit motive.

"Finally, the bill terminates the national sales tax if the Sixteenth Amendment to the Constitution (authorizing an income tax) is not repealed within seven years after the enactment of this bill."
So if the 16th isn't repealed, and the IRS no longer exists... does the US just stop functioning in 2024?

The actual resolution you get in an HMD is much, much lower than the screen resolution. For example, a movie theatre screen in an Oculus Rift CV1 with a resolution of 2160 x 1200 (1080 x 1200 per eye) would have an effective resolution of about 720x480.
Of course, you can create as many of these screens as you want in a virtual space, but the resolution combined with the distortion will hinder any text-heavy work.

If you can't get government assistance because you have an "extra" kidney, and you need to feed your family, I wouldn't call that decision anything other than forced.
