Sounds about right. I would object to some of his arguments and conclusions, but the 20s being a particularly shitty time is a given by this point. Not that problems couldn't be averted or minimized...

I think that it would have been very painful and I doubt anyone would have thanked him for it, not before decades had gone by anyway, but if he used his popularity when he was re-elected to just...

Just give it time.

Now instead of a nuclear war ending with pretty much everyone dying it will end with pretty much everyone dying. Truly a most innovative system.

It does make me wonder about the Cold War though,...

It is made even more ironic considering the whole situation came from someone assuming the results of a vote would be obviously one way by a great margin.

Ah but you see clearly the guns are more important than the house.

I'm sure he does. Doing nothing is a pretty easy one to accomplish.

Let me be more blunt then. If Trump tried I am pretty sure he could get Temer to support him in doing that without much trouble or cost.

While Brazil's foreign policy in the past hundred years...

While I mostly agree Brazil is currently lead by Temer which, relatively speaking, has done even better than Trump in the whole fucking things up so I could see him backing it. He seems determined to...

They might in politics, not like people in there are ever seriously punished so they could do whatever and walk away.

The people calling for money to students are not the ones talking about austerity so it would be 'Dedicating a significant amount of extra money to a specific social group [i.e. students] requires...

Well in an ideal world there would be no difference but I suppose you could say the first is spending the least money to the greatest effect for as many people as possible and the second is giving...

I admit I am looking forward to just how much more the DUP will manage to get before this whole thing is through simply because I am expecting it to be absurd.

Well it seems like Brazil is going impeach it's president. Again.

Temer apparently got caught in a recording agreeing with bribes to Eduardo Cunha so his mouth would stay shut. Meanwhile Aecio...

That it is as homogeneous as 'movies' or 'games' and as such you can't draw useful conclusion from treating them as a whole? You could pick any number of the qualifies he mentioned, switch for their...

I admit I didn't really pay attention to Turkey before the coup but on what I learned since it is like watching a train wreck and knowing it's not stopping but rather speeding up. At this point...

Hum... I think we are talking past each other so to clarify. Instability is the reason the issues that led to austerity being enforced on Greece existed. I admit I lack the knowledge to say for sure...

History has shown that stability means money may flow from the top percentages to the vast majority of the population but once problems occur money tends to concentrate even more up to the point a...

I don't think short-sighted is the best word, selfish works better. Most politicians are old and will be dead in decades with the power they have keeping them living well until that happens so for...

Yep. I have resigned myself that for the time being the best thing that can be is nothing happening at all.

Sadly that is really not the case, lesser scandals are used to hide greater ones and often to bring down people who either aren't involved in the worst ones or would end up revealing them. Would need...

Yet another one here though I was mostly a lurker.

Oh come on ZnT is not that bad, all you have to do is ignore 99% of the interaction between Louise and Saito... Sadly I am not joking, it has some interesting characters and ideas but the interaction...

Silver Queen has some SI Naruto stories that I find good enough to follow.

Aside from that not being exactly a plus I could also be technical about it and say that required a command seal and even then Lancer lived long enough to set the place on fire which finished him off...
