I've used the ASEA to get a number of organizations setup. I prefer it to Control Tower (it can be installed on top of CT). The ASEA is open source and written in AWS cdk so it can be forked and modified if needed.

First paragraph says "All light-duty cars and trucks sold in British Columbia would have to be zero-emission by 2040 under legislation tabled Wednesday."

This reminds me of the "Supergun" that Gerald Bull [2] was trying to build with Saddam Hussein [1].

One of my professors, that worked with Bull at the University of Toronto, told me all about his arms dealing/designing escapades. Bull was ultimately assassinated outside his home in Brussels.

Re:A basic income could boost the US economy by $2.5 trillion on Monday November 27, 2017 @12:12PM (#15788943)
One way to look at it is that people wouldn't, in fact, be paid to do nothing. They would be paid for the valuable service they provide; using their knowledge and experience to select products and services.
It seems like only the planes bound for US airlines will be manufactured in the US.
