There are several dozen on my block alone in Munich. Including the one on my house.

No, he’s not described a death plug. The inverters only produce was it sees the sine wave from the grid.

If the grid goes down, break trips, or it’s unplugged, then it stops producing.

Calm down.

Let’s not let the perfect be the enemy of the good.

Mandated warranty minimums and right to repair regulations are not mutually exclusive. We can do both, even if we don’t do them at the same time.

If that’s the solution… then the project has already failed.

Think you answered your own question there.

Mandated warranty periods. Pretty straight forward.

And they currently engineer product to have things fail right after their warranty expires, so, that’s not really a concern, since we’re already living with that.

We don’t feel the need to broadcast it, or make it part of our personality.

But don’t equate that to not knowing how to use or not owning them.

So, there isn’t one set of rules for charities and another for Churches? Really?

And how do we know they are providing charitable services, if there’s no way to verify it in their financial statements?

Which disproves your original claim of “churches aren’t tax free because they are churches”

That’s just wrong. Churches are tax free because they are churches.

Don’t believe me? Go look up a church’s 990… oh, wait… you can’t. Because they don’t have to file them because they are “special” in the eyes of the law. Not just a run of the mill charity.

I know you tried to, incorrectly, invoke the establishment clause. That wasn’t my question. I asked for the case law/ruling.

Because I don’t recall anything coming up in my Con Law classes even remotely close to that, and since you seem to be so confident in the issue, I assume you have something more than just your own feelings on the matter to back it up.

So, what case law lead you to your conclusion? Please be specific.

That’s quite the claim, given there’s nothing in the 1A about charity or taxation. What case law/SCOTUS ruling are you basing that off of?

The same way they do for 501c3’s.
