    It’s like saying we need traffic police and highways before we can have cars.

    These things exist now, so we’re going to need to address their use or ban them and have our country fall behind in technology and manufacturing. Other countries are making them, if we’re not building similar industries then we’re losing.

      You can’t do a large rollout of these things within the current regulations. They’re simply not made to accomodate all that traffic. Creating the regulations and systems around it will take a long time so best to start early. Or you’ll have to copy everything from a country that’s ahead later on.
