I was wondering if it would be legal to just run over rich people. You what I mean? Let's say you are driving to work and Elon musk is walking from the parking lot to the Starbucks. Could you just drive him over? What about a ticket? Can we give rich people a ticket? Sure it's not like driving over them, but it could work!

You know, after Putin will be finally sent to Hauge(or die) Russia can solve its demographic problem(you know, hundreds of thousands people becoming fertilizer) by simply making flying to Russia free.
Or that is just another stupid idea and we should focus on education, healthcare, pensions, welfare and public transport instead. This should be even easier and have bigger results.
Clearly, we need more space tourism.
I can’t speak for Oregon, but here in California the problem is that we have a LOT of beds that are not being used. And cities and states can’t force people into shelter and care if the area doesn’t have enough beds for everyone that is unhoused.
The ask is to be able to shelter some people with the beds that are available. Right now CA is forced to wait until it could theoretically give every unhoused person a shelter bed at once.
That's one of the stupidest things I've ever heard so I 100% believe the government would be stuck on exactly that.
Theft, overcrowding and assault are some reasons I've heard many homeless people say in CA as to the reason why they avoid shelters unless it becomes worse outside than inside.
Is that some sort of misguided antidiscrimination law?
