| ManusJustus said: VGCHartz is getting screwy, I think my original post is gone. My major points: 1. Privatized roads would be owned by companies who don't want you using their products for free. Thats means that they will want to collect on any form of transportation you use on their road, including by foot and by bicycles. Which gets us back to GPS ankle bracelets. Since roads define "right of way" which citizens of pretty much every country use to leave their property and travel elsewhere, you are talking about a huge change in human psyche, we would all be prisoners of our own homes and property without the right to leave. 2. Pedestrians have to be charged for using sidewalks along roads. You propose that motorists should pay to cover pedestrians, but that is a free rider problem. ssj12 will learn about the free rider problem first hand when he collects money from neighbors to build the road in front of his house. |
Yes, bceause there are no laws or government regulations on anything that is privately owned.
Outside that the "free rider" problem... how much do you think regular foot travel costs versus car travel. A 200 pound person, vs a car that weights 1 or 2 tons.
As for hacking? The same thing that prevents people from comitting other crimes?
