Three Unelected Men Just Overrode The Will Of 83% Of The US Population
Regarding recent “Repeal of Net Neutrality”.
I agree with majority that this is not right and democratic.
This may be one of problems in our current system, benefiting only a few, esp. with power; e.g. a few powerful media and their related people and businesses. I fear and am afraid that this repeal may be, e.g. powerful media’s trying to control public opinions in their favor, in the name of freedom and free competition.
I am very concerned about the direction where our country is going, (esp. against people’s will and democracy).
If this case goes to Supreme Court, however, I carefully predict that this repeal may not win, although it may still go in either direction, depending on the Court’s perspective and mood?…
I feel there is another reason why we need reform;
Media Reform…!
Homeless shelter, as for emergencies?
If you go to South campus of UCLA, there is a place called, “bomb shelter” in the middle of the campus, which may still be used for student cafe.
North Korea might have succeeded their goal of reaching the ICBM to Washington DC or other major US cities, although not sure if they truly succeeded, e.g., its re-entry to earth atmosphere.
What does it mean to Hawaii?
Well, in my opinion, it may mean we may get a less chance of nuclear bombing from North Korea, unless they already produced many nuclear bombs, enough to send to us, which I doubt. Because, Hawaii may not satisfy much to their propaganda and symbolic effect of mass killing, (although it may still happen since we have Pacific Fleet headquaters here in Hawaii).
(In terms of nuclear threat, I fear China more than North Korea.)
Well, lately I have been thinking, (just as a possible option), what if we build homeless shelters, for dual or multi-purpose of bomb or any other shelters for emergencies..?
(We may still use them for other emergencies, even if and after we can be able to hopefully eradicate the homeless issue.)
Just my thought.

Recently, Mr. Trump thru Mr. Tillerson offered a talk with North Korea, unconditionally.
According to Central Daily, a South Korean newspaper, they fear the gesture of the unconditional talk may be prelude for US starting a war with North Korea.
Recently, US and South Korea practiced again at the region, war games with hundreds of modern warplanes and 3 major aircraft carriers and warships.
The newspaper predicted, if North Korea refuses (or the talk fails), then the next step may be Maritime Interdiction (rather than blockade, which may be used in war), which North Korea has been claiming it means war.
The offer of unconditional talk may also serve as a gesture to Chana and Russia; that we may be doing our best diplomatically, and for in case, we may need their help, if and when the Maritime Interdiction happens.
I just hope we find peaceful solutions thru more diplomacy, without war.
Aloha.
