The most popular tractor on American farms right now is the John Deere 5075E, which has between 73 and 75HP. So you're wrong.

Those large scale farms aren't the ones who have a problem with John Deere or repairability. Corporate will handle that.

The worlds most popular tractor brand (Mahindra) doesn't even crack the top 5 in the US. If American farmers wan't the most repairable tractor, they should just buy the one that is used in poorer, less-connected regions of the wor

I think the Japan tsunami videos showed as many, but it was spread out over the course of almost 2hrs and happened in slow motion over a large area. You could see some cars speeding to safety while others were washed away. Some stayed in ta

A separatist movement is generally one where a group wants to secede and become their own country. See Alberta in Canada. An independence struggle is where a people are trying to remove an occupying force, their colonizer. Very similar, but

People don't poach elephants for penis pills. People poach elephants because poverty is prevalent and they are offered piles of money for tusks. Expect more elephants to be slaughtered as a result of Elon Musks teardown of USAID.

While it's hard to regulate fishing when your country is made up of endless islands, it's quite easy to regulate dynamite. So no, I don't think the number of islands is an excuse. In Fiji, for example, no fisherman could get

You just charge for it. A dollar per entry should be enough for someone to come by and clean it twice a day, such that it doesn't matter what shenanigans antisocial people get up to in there. No mess will last longer than a few hours.
