  • Does being poor compel people to speed or something?

    No, but $100+ to a poor person could be the difference between literal life and death.

    $100+ to someone well off or rich is nothing but pocket change.

    The solution to this is sliding scale fines. The better off you are the more you get fined.

    Why should a poor person have to spend 90% of their money on a fine when a “rich” person only has to spend 0.0009% for the exact same infraction.







  • The amount of times the shit breaks down combined with the slower speeds means it doesn’t really matter if they work 24/7 right now.

    Yes, robots are coming, but amazon has been acting like they will be here tomorrow since it’s inception.

    The reality is robots that cost less than people that at least do comparable work in the same time frame is still a decade or 2 away optimistically.

    Amazon trying to force it doesn’t change that.

    Amazon is to robots what meta is to vr. Dumping tons of money trying to force the ‘future’ today.
