Does a solution to the ongoing water crisis on the Colorado River exist that would 1. Actually solve the problem, 2. Be consistent with conservative principles, and 3. Be politically possible given the existing stakeholders?
reddit.comMany cities are updating their regulatory regimes surrounding ebikes, electric scooters, e-motos etc. How would you like to see these regulated in *your* city?
On the one hand irresponsible use of these devices can create safety concerns, both real and perceived. On the other hand, the more heavily regulated you make these the less accessible they become to the broad public.

youtube.comSay Klein is right that a major problem of modern liberal politics is it is over-institutionalized. What does it look like to "de-institutionalize" liberal politics?
Klein has made the point multiple times that modern liberal politics is largely the domain of people who have successfully navigated institutions, probably to a greater extent than is healthy. If that really is a problem, then it would seem that the obvious solution is some form of decoupling, at least in part, of liberal politics from those institutions. But what would such a decoupling look like? Would it even be possible? Would those institutionalists currently in power ever give up even a portion of it willingly if doing so presented an opportunity for growth? Does Ezra Klein need to retire for Ezra Klein's politics to succeed? Many such questions arise from this sentiment.

lenergy.com.auWhat would a Jet Lag season have to look like for micromobility to really play a major role?
Bikes have been an option just to have a cost in tag, but were never used. Scooter rentals were used briefly in H&S UK, but it feels like everything else is either some form of large vehicle or on foot. Even the NYC mini-season, which as a single-city setting could have been great for use of bikes, scooters, ebikes, etc didn't feature.

heatmap.newsAs the administration moves into new negotiations with Iran on its nuclear program, what should their opening position be on Iranian *civilian* nuclear?
Iran currently has a 900MW power reactor operational at the Bushehr site and plans to build, at least by my cursory research, up to 5GW total of Russian designs. While obviously negotiations will progress, where should the US be coming to the table at first on these parts of the broader Iranian nuclear program?
