Engineering is more like accounting, but for objects instead of money. Tables, rule books, and lobbyists.

Congratulations, you are now the Sun.
I think it's worth pursuing. People who are on programs now that would risk losing those programs by getting a job, could now go get a job, and some of those people will excel and grow and make money and pay lots of taxes. All low wage jobs would suddenly be that much more interesting and there wouldn't be as much pressure to drive up the minimum wage.
I'd be curious about how the dollars work out How expensive would it be if we didn't need AISH, employment insurance, CPP, or any number of other living assistance programs anymore (or which of those it makes most sense to axe, which to keep, and which can be dialed back). Definitely worth exploring the idea, in isolation or in comparison to other cash expenditures.
More nuanced rules would be good in some ways, but I think more nuanced rules would require a larger government and more expensive services to oversee, or even to make such rules. I would be in support of trying that, as I think the long term benefits will exist, but many are not as there is an increase in short term pain because we'd have to pay long before we'd see a benefit, and people would have to keep voting to be in pain before results are realized. Hard to sell.
Will at some point she become too famous and then is there some weird shift in how libel and slander work in the U.S.? Just thinking about how the politicians are always slinging mud, but there seems to be a different standard.
No hands for anyone. Possibly no feet too. Only the cooperative will survive.
Morrowind was amazingly versatile. You could combine any effect, and they weren't any safety mechanisms. Want to jump 2000 ft in the air? Don't forget your feather fall spell. Hundreds of ways to kill or die amusingly. My old husk of a brain is having trouble remembering, but maybe some others have a fond memory of their best spell or enchanted item combos.
It's nice that we are done bickering about whether or not we are screwed. Onward to bickering about how soon, where, and who's to blame!!
