You can in theory fly a drone over people if it meets a few criteria such as enclosed blades, under 250 grams, displaying your registered FAA number on the drone chassis, etc etc.

Such a blunder, imho. Since drones are the future at least for warfare, encouraging their use with certified and safe models may be a no-brainer to support the growth of that technology and educating civil operators en masse.

I think people piloting drones is just an intermediate step, there isnt some huge demand for drone pilots in the future. As soon as it is feasible that task will be relegated to computers, be it truly autonomous drones or centrally controlled by a guidance system.
