High schoolers ride busses too. They're a little bigger than 40lb twerps at that point.

you can report them and get their tax free status taken away

And remember, that report will go nowhere and you'll accomplish nothing! The IRS has never gone after a church for this. Never. Reporting them is just as effective as quietly whispering "please tax them" into your pillow at night.

I wish people would recognize the failures in our system and stop suggesting others do shit that doesn't actually work.

Ok cool, you better not fucking vote then or you're a hypocrite.

Still there, but that's more of a failing with education costs than a problem brought about by reliance on last-minute, stress-motivated, ADHD superpowers.

Copious amounts of ethnicities also break the immersion for me. I'm 100% for modern inclusion, but if you're showing 17th century England and every other character is black or Asian, you pretty much have to be willfully ignoring history. That's not even getting into how others interact with the character, just the fact that those ethnicities would be rare in those times and locations.

Great actually. I got a good paying job doing what I like that doesn't involve me needing to motivate myself to continue working after I get home, or stress out about being prepared for an arbitrary test of my abilities.

isn't sustainable

The degree on my wall says otherwise.

Maybe we could stop them from lobbying so hard against alternatives to try and kill the development or adoption of them? Maybe we could stop them from bribing lawmakers to support subsidies for themselves while denying subsidies for alternatives?

Or wait, here's a good one, maybe we could stop them from spending billions of dollars on ad campaigns and BS propaganda that downplays their contribution while pushing a message that the real problem is all those awful individuals like us who are really the ones who should be sacrificing rather than the poor, misunderstood, multi-billion dollar international conglomerates?
