          What I know about them is they are parliamentary. I'll admit lack of knowledge from there. I don't know how they sift and winnow. Seems the Brazilians do it with knives.

                I think it's the South Korean (or maybe Taiwanese) that have literal floor fights on a regular basis.

                  Considering that more than 100 politicians were assassinated in the 2018 Mexican election cycle...I think we're doing pretty good in the process of elections and politics...actual politicking...that's up for debate.

                    I was wondering if anyone knew where Ryan Lochte was, but I see they got the person responsible.
