I am imagining an Indian minister frantically pacing back and forth in the emergency room as the bodies start to pile up. Not out of concern for the children, but desperately trying to come up with a story to blame Pakistan, before the journalists show up.

Posting this again. Fantastic book about why regulations for drugs are set up, and what happens when generic regulations become lax. Mostly about the Ranbaxy scandal in India.
Bottle of Lies: The Inside Story of the Generic Drug Boom
By: Katherine Eban
Really great book about the generic drug trade that was recommended here on reddit when this first hit the news. Very eye opening about the lax standards in place in certain countries for drug manufacturing and contamination.

Wait, wait, let me guess: "propylene" glycol that wasn't.
*click*
Yep. :( This happened in the US in the... 1970s, I think?
Propylene glycol is a sweetener/emulsifier that's mostly harmless in small doses, but if the lab doesn't synthesize it right, it may be contaminated with ethylene glycol, which is horribly toxic. Most of us know the latter chemical as the anti-freeze used in cars.
Similarly, if a distillery does their fermentation right, their product will contain ethanol (drinking alcohol), but if they mess up, it will also contain methanol (wood alcohol) that is much more toxic.

This is why America has regulation laws. Other countries, like India and China, don't have restrictions because they don't value human life, and they get away with this stuff.
This is what we can look forward to if the GOP continues to win house and senate elections. They hate any regulation on businesses. We are nothing but cattle to them.

Can’t wait to unearth the footage of him jumping out of plane number two right before it hit the tower in some unearthed footage, and the clip of him shooting the Shinzo Abe, and him sabotaging Space Shuttle Columbia, and the footage of him mailing anthrax to the national inquirer, and we’re gonna find a video of him fucking an abalone in a chinese wet market in 2019.
It’s gonna be like Forrest Gump, but he’s present and responsible for all the terrible shit to happen to the country/world, in it’s worst moments.

I'm pretty sure that most of us normal folk would find themselves in a jail cell if we had a huge number of unpaid tickets and fines for any 1 of those violations, plus a suspended license. Maybe the unpaid tolls don't get you into lockup, but multiple speeding violations, including multiple in a school zone? And multiple red light runs? Wow.

It's crazy how anyone, even a cartoonish lying moron like Santos, can win elected office if they have special interests funding and backing them.
We're basically one notch below electing congress members who are actual physical hand puppets at this point...what will it take to accomplish some serious campaign finance reform?

That’s cool. But where were you BEFORE Election Day?
Super glad you devoted plenty of time and resources to the Kardashians and Elon and “The Best Road Trip States” and approximately a million posts about Johnny Depp before and after the election. .
I know you’re just some intern, but fuck everyone there for fucking this up. You all at EVERY news organization should be bending at the waist and begging forgiveness like a Japanese Ice Cream company that raised their price 9 cents.
Shameful shit

The New York Post reported in January that a Nissan Rogue driven frequently by Santos in recent months had been issued speeding tickets at least five times since he was elected on Nov. 8, "including four times in school zones."
I drive pretty fucking fast, but have not received 5 speeding tickets in 30 years of driving. How shitty of a driver do you have to be to get 5 speeding tickets in 3 months?

depends on the state a bit. camera tickets? that is very possible, esp in mid-atlantic. pulled over 5x is way different. Like MD and VA feels like they use traffic stops as another form of revenue, and you learn quick to adjust
Two tickets for running red lights were paid, but four toll violations racked up late fees and were ultimately sent to collections
not just tickets - red light runner tickets. thats the worst kind

True, but I stand by my point: How shitty of a driver do you have to be to get 5 speeding tickets in three months? Even with speed cameras, that takes some exceptional incompetence.

Im not at all trying to stand up for this scum.
But I am bitching about stealth speed cams on a 35 or 25mph road. And you go back and forth for a month at 12mph over and rack up a stack of tickets without even realizing it until the mail shows up way later. If you are a local, you learn where they are, but visitors can get 10 tickets in 2 weeks and find out 3 months later.
Santos tho... Red light runners kills people disproportionately
