Tennessee Valley Authority

Read a random definition: mandatory instruction

A quick definition of Tennessee Valley Authority:

Tennessee Valley Authority: The Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) is a government-owned corporation that was created in 1933 to help the economic growth of the Tennessee Valley region. The TVA does many things to help the area, such as controlling floods, making it easier for boats to travel, producing electricity, making fertilizer, improving recreation areas, and taking care of the forests and wildlife. The TVA gets money from the government to do some of these things, but its power program makes enough money to support itself.

A more thorough explanation:

The Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) is a government-owned corporation that was created in 1933. Its main goal is to promote economic growth in the Tennessee Valley region through a unified program of resource development.

The TVA is responsible for a variety of activities, including:

  • Flood control
  • Navigation development
  • Electric-power production
  • Fertilizer development
  • Recreation improvement
  • Forestry-and-wildlife development

The TVA's power program is financially self-supporting, which means it pays for itself. However, its other programs are primarily financed by congressional appropriations.

For example, the TVA might build a dam to control flooding in a certain area. This would help protect homes and businesses from damage caused by floods. Or, the TVA might develop a new fertilizer that helps crops grow better in the Tennessee Valley region. This would help farmers produce more food and make more money.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dalgona I just learned about these things. Apparently they’re featured in Squid Game, but I think Squid Game is just a ripoff of the original Mr Beast Games
I learned today the term fight fire with fire comes from the early day of fire fighting when departments would just bulldoze buildings and then burn them in an attempt to stop a fire from spreading. So to stop fire from burning shit they would burn down other buildings in a more violent and destructive way thus lowering the fires moral so much it refuses to spread and work.

that's like basically how wildland firefighting still works
I did wildland and most of the time it was controlled burns but it is pretty funny to imagine doing that in a city/neighborhood.

The Santa Ana winds kinda helped with that because it pushed the fire back to where it had already burned despite the news media saying everything was going to get worse like the idiots they are.
Cant imagine being the guy to be like "hey so to keep your neighbors house from burning down we are going to bulldoze yours and then catch it on fire"
