Strategic use of a cordless drill can ensure it's a useless hole.

Here's your downvote

This is a gross oversimplification......laws can be passed just to grab money, power, resources. Or just on a whim. 2 examples come to mind: the Boston Tea Party & the United States Library of Congress making cell phone unlocking illegal. The Americans weren't begging for a tea tax (and they sure as hell didn't vote to bring about change). And idk if you're aware of this obscure little blip in history: James Hadley Billington, Librarian of Congress in 2012, decided to make cell phone unlocking illegal. I was fresh out of college....and an 83 year old man unilaterally passed a law telling me what I can & cannot do with my smartphone. Nobody asked for this, to borrow your terminology, it was unpopular. There were petitions I signed. Do you have any idea how infuriating that is?? The LoC JHB was so old, he's dead now. Obama said the law couldn't be repealed (???????) 🙄 Eventually 2 years later it was, but it was a wild wtf type moment.

To be fair to Mr. JHB, you look at his record & it seems like he/his team accomplished a lot of good things during his service. He just really, really fucked up in 2012.

I don't know how productive further discussions will be; we appear to take very different positions on law, authorities, government, right & wrong. ¯\(°_o)/¯ Have a good night

Public speaking isn't easy ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I think I would briefly explain the concept for the benefit of anyone unfamiliar, and I would remove the "I guess" part from the front. My area didn't have an Aldi's until...idk. I want to say 2009. So it's old enough news to me, but maybe there's some people that have a Kroger/Walmart/everything else.

He's probably too rich to be bothered, but I don't see it as a claim of exclusivity, just remarking how it's good to see policy being built into the system that encourages neatness, decency, and order. Even in the little things.

We have the quarter-cart system in the US, at Aldi's...and that's about it. Everywhere else is fucking trash, carts everywhere, better or worse just depends on the day & foot traffic. I sure wish they did it everywhere.
