Kotoku Wamura was the mayor of a village in Japan called Fudai. He spent billions of Japanese Yen on a floodgate that was criticized as a waste of public funds. He died in 1997, with the mockery of his floodgate casting a shadow over his legacy. In 2011, Japan was hit by an earthquake and tsunami, killing tens of thousands of people and damaging hundreds of thousands buildings all over the country. Except in Fudai. Wamura's floodgate effectively protected Fudai's citizens, leaving the village virtually untouched. In fact, the village barely got wet.

This ad from 1969 asking for the driving age to be increased from 14 | /r/mildlyinteresting

"I'm 14 years old and I can legally drive through this country from border to border." The trouble with the 14-year-old is that he's half man, half boy. One minute he's a sober, sensible adult, next he's a defiant, irresponsible child. A child who'll do things in a car that can send chills down your spine. Things that can turn him into a killer. In fact, too many already are. Young people get into more crack-ups than any other age group. Yet in the face of this murderous evidence some states still license 14-year-olds. And a lot that don't license them will let them drive through. So many, in fact, that you never know where you'll run into one. Or when one will run into you. But for once, time is on our side. Time changes boys into men. Only they'll never make it if we let them drive too soon. What age isn't too soon? We don't know. Let the states get together and figure that out. But we do know it isn't too soon to write your local legislator. And demand that he give kids a chance to grow up. Not everyone should drive.
