Don’t do Australia so dirty by excluding them from this.

The vice president has only two forms of hard power, they are the tiebreaker for the senate and are first in line to replace the president.

Other than that they have plenty of soft power through their position but unless the president is on their deathbed they aren’t even in contention for second most powerful person in the US.

The US General Accounting Office did a study on this in 1978. (Excessive Truck Weight: An Expensive Burden We Can No Longer Support CED-79-94)

They determined that a fully loaded 80,000 pound 18 wheeler did 160,000 times more damage than a 4,000 pound car (which already is a oversize piece of shit).

The chief medical officer of the Department of Indian Affairs reported in 1907 a 40-60% mortality rate in these schools at that time. Source: Dr. Bryce Report 1907, Medical Inspector, Department of Indian Affairs

The vast majority of these deaths were from tuberculosis which just had free reign in these facilities with few attempts to do anything about it. They didn’t maintain those rates for the duration of the system but it’s sickening it even got anywhere close to that.

You didn’t prepare a fresh account for this prime opportunity to bully neoliberals? For shame.

Is it just me or is placing critical generators in basements a common mistake in places with flood risks? That was one of the big reasons why things went awry in Fukushima as well.

I don’t know how far along they are in their search by now but last time I heard they had searched 3% of the schools and were already at a thousand dead.

This will go on for a while.
