And if they did cut taxes, they didn’t cut them enough! In fact, the state should just pay them!
Wait what? They already do that? With walmart?

Not necessarily. A 40 tonne lorry damages the motorway as much as 1000 passenger cars. It will lead to the state having to renew the road surfaces every few years. Rails don’t have that problem, they’ll happily take 100 tonnes for decades.

Yes, I am aware that this is the prevalent misconception in the USA. If you spoke more than one language you’d quickly realise this is not the case in the rest of the world. For example, your demonym in Spanish is Estadounidense, which means Unitedstatesian. In German it is US-Amerikaner, the meaning of which you can probably understand.

If the decision making in the game is based on a deterministic formula, then it is no different than the decision of selecing which two items in the container to compare next.

Your argument can be reduced to saying that if the algorithm is comprised of many steps, it is AI, and if not, it isn’t.
A chess engine decides nothing. It understands nothing. It’s just an algorithm.
