Around 1991 on Intestate 5 in California. My mom liked to drive at night so me and my sister would sleep. Far in the distance there were some lights brighter than any vehicles on the road. As we approached it was clear they were above the road, but swinging back and forth perpendicular to the road. Kept getting closer and could see that it was three very bright round lights in an equilateral triangle, maybe only 50 feet above the road and still moving back and forth. I was very frightened as we passed under it, and I turned around and watched it until it was a tiny dot again the rear. It made no sound. It wasn’t an airplane.

Not sure exactly which country you’re referring to, but in the USA the Democratic Party absolutely would not do that, which is precisely why they lost. If they had accepted the popularity of Bernie Sanders in 2016, maybe. But the party decided not to go that direction.

Their next presidential nominee is probably Gavin Newsom, who grew up in private school and best friends with Oil money billionaires - the Getty family.

The government could incentivize this by a tax formula. Highest paid employee divided by lowest paid employee sets the payroll tax rate for the whole business.

It may also be possible to identify somebody by their gait. Be sure to practice the Ministry of Silly Walks before committing a crime.

Just a tiny hurdle, the prototype cell is 1% the size it needs to be. Maybe they should just put it in an e-bike and call it a day.

Paint the hat red and the beard white, and you’ve got the great wizard of the north.

I have a stereoscopic viewer. Like a desk version of Google Cardboard. You tape down two photos taken from different angles and view them in 3d. It has an adjustment knob like binoculars for your pupil distance, and some legs to hold it parallel to the desk. It’s made for aerial photographs. Maybe I could turn it into a VR viewer.
