This is a terrific post. It presents, as you imply, something superficial, but what underlies the superficial proposition is the fact that Congress does not do its job: looking out for the public. And if Congress gets paid off by the private sector not to look out for the public, then Sanders' proposal is correct: the public (sector) should be empowered to look out for itself. A substantial seat at the table is absolutely required.

Congress needs to be taught a lesson. If you don't follow the will of the people you represent in 2 years we vote them all out!

They all know they're about to be taught that lesson. That's why they're working so hard to cheat.

AI was funded by government grants. Failure of Congress to recognize that AI has serious implications for all aspects of life is short sighted and uninformed. AI must be government regulated; not used for weapons (as Trump wants), and owned at least part by the Federal government. Million/billionaires should not be dictating government policy at any level.

Look maybe we can do what Germany did to one of Musk’s Tesla data center. I believe the citizens realizing that they got tricked by one of the big tech bro boys burned it down and kicked Musk out.
