If you get eagle scout you get a small raise when you join the military, same as if you had an associates degree.

Solar panels last a long time and in 30 years or so we will have enough to power the world for a century.

Solar panels and computer chips need large complex centralized factories, but that is basically 0%of the Land so there’s no problem with having both, as long as you don’t pretend that your solar powered homestead isn’t dependent on inputs like that.

That doesn’t apply in this case, they dint care about court cases. The arrest and torture is the only point.

Bribing politicians is cheap, it’s generally millions for billions and more like 100k to billion for small politicians.

The difference is the military can very quickly kill thousands of people per minute, without even going to the big stuff. Hand held guns are irrelevant.

Did you mean are punished?

That’s not really accurate, the experience of an infantry soldier doing foot patrols in Afghanistan is completely different than someone who lived in a giant base in Iraq that had hiphop night and taco bell and never left it.

It’s the system that produces a restricted rules of engagement and a general fear of punishment if you do something wildly out of line and a strong Management that induces discipline and restraint. If you take one crazy guy out of that system and then hand him a gun and tell him that he can do whatever he wants with full immunity then you don’t get restraint.

It only lasted 8 months and had 40k deaths for the whole country, but that’s why they were sent out to the countryside.

I liked it, but then it got weird

There is also Those who hunt elves.

He says quite clearly that on earth his form is a lamb instead of a lion, and the last book is a straight eschaton.

It’s on a long term cycle 50kyears ish where it goes from green to dry.

There isn’t one, the only stealth fighters are in the US or Russia/China. If you don’t have stealth fighters at all you will lose very badly in an air war against someone that does. That’s just how it is, you have an overwhelming advantage if you can shoot your enemy but they can’t even see you at range.
