Autonomous Vehicles At Willow Run



Autonomous Vehicles at Willow Run
                I do not believe that an Autonomous Vehicle Development Station should be built on the grounds of Willow Run in Michigan.
                The problem is prying eyes.  There is no way to secure the area.
                At this time there is an installation there called the Yankee Air Museum.  They have a B-52 bomber parked on the runway.  You can easily see it from a mile away.  The location is open and flat with plenty of cover.
                I believe that any Autonomous Vehicle Development Station should be on the Selfridge Air National Guard Base.  At least they could provide some level of security.
                Why security?
                From the point of view of private interests it would not be prudent to perform this development out in the open.
                From the point of view of national security it is obvious to even the most disinterested parties that these vehicles will not only be used for transportation of people and goods.  After all the local governments in this region can’t even agree on how run a bus and rail system.
                The primary use of these autonomous vehicles will at first be weapons.
                Imagine, if you will, an autonomous (or even manned) LS-T, (Landing Ship, Tank), carrying in its hold 100 autonomous tanks and machine gun and missile platforms.
                The ship rolls up to the coast, opens its doors and out roll 100 weapons ready for action with no men or women on board.
                As a side note some of these autonomous vehicles will be airborne so, again, developing them on the Air Base would be the wise thing to do.
                Governor Snyder has apparently out of touch with the realities of the modern economy and, now, it seems, the modern world at large.

Strangers Among You

  Strangers Among You   By Alfred Brock   Introduction   This book talks about why migrants and immigrants are risking their lives to cross the border into the United States and become Americans.  It is a plain, simple telling of the Martinez family as they make their way from the countryside of Costa Rica to Detroit, Michigan.                 It is built, of course, upon the American dream and the American that exists in the United States of America.   More than that, however, it details the very real reasons people have for leaving their country to go to the United States.  Not enough people are aware that these people are leaving life and death situations.   They are coming from places that cannot be gone back to without a great deal of work and fixing.               ...

Extraños Entre Ustedes

  Extraños Entre Ustedes   Por Martin Estrella       Introducción Este libro habla sobre por qué los migrantes e inmigrantes arriesgan sus vidas para cruzar la frontera hacia Estados Unidos y convertirse en estadounidenses. Es un relato sencillo y directo de la familia Martínez mientras se abren camino desde el campo de Costa Rica hasta Detroit, Michigan. Por supuesto, está basado en el sueño americano y en la América que existe en los Estados Unidos de América. Sin embargo, detalla las razones muy reales que tienen las personas para abandonar su país y dirigirse a Estados Unidos. No hay suficiente conciencia de que estas personas están abandonando situaciones de vida o muerte. Vienen de lugares a los que no pueden regresar sin mucho esfuerzo y reparación. Por supuesto, el trabajo y la corrección de todo eso serían rentables para mucha gente, pero actualmente demasiadas personas en el mundo desarrollado tienen la impresión de que millones de per...
