You forgot the most important power source for the all-electric future: nuclear reactors.

The French want to build 6 new reactors by 2028. We should be doing likewise.

I was pleased to see the federal government appropriated 1 billion for Diablo Canyon nuke plant in Cali. Would love to see us build some more next gen nuke plants in Pa

The cruelty is the point.

It should be easy to get UC, but there’s this asinine prejudice against the people who use this system.

Rather than the old “better that ten guilty men go free than one innocent suffer,” our government seems to take the approach “better that 10 families starve than 1 person scam the system.”

They already did that in 2020. While I am sad to see it happen (RIP Burlington Lake Monsters), there’s not much more fat to cut.

Having four levels of minors (AAA, AA, High A, Low A) is probably more sustainable than the six or so adhoc levels. Plus, with the affiliate Major clubs there’s a financial backing that the indy ball clubs can’t match.

The current CBA sets 130 “domestic reserve” spots, those guys have to play somewhere since only 40 can be on the active mlb roster.
