  • A long time ago the Japanese government decided that the entire country producing only one kind of food is bonkers, and started forcing farmers to diversify.

    Jump to a handful of decades later, and the diversification effort was kept every ear, with people complaining that they can’t keep it forever, and the government claiming that it never caused any problem. Repeat that again and again, and well, finally it has caused some problem.







  • The police, persecution and two independent levels of the Judiciary found him to be the central player on the Petrobras scandal that you talked about (and either way, it was created while he was the president). He was the central player on the scandal of car companies paying him (personally) to avoid paying taxes. He inherited the position of central player on the scandal of construction companies paying bribes.

    There were dozens of other crimes. He was right on the middle in most of them. Including the one where he used taxpayer money to bribe representatives and senators.

    Cut the bullshit.

    Without surface tension it would stick to whatever thing attracts it more. And a normal piece of cloth attracts water way more than a normal non-carpet floor.

    But it also wouldn’t flow freely as the GP expects either. Some oils have almost no surface tension, and they are famously a nightmare to clean up.

    As a positive, the water would evaporate faster.
