Let him be judged by his actions, not by his words


Everybody knows his words
His actions:
60% of Venezuelan oil securely delivered to the US
Rewriting the history by removing each town's coat of arms historical Spanish details
Making Venezuelan people claim their independent indigenous roots while opening the country to every US company (and expelling Spanish businesses)

Oyster card potential arbitrage opportunity

I got an Oyster card last October and I noticed there was a deposit for the card. Mine was 5 pounds. My sister had got a card the previous year or even in 2010, and her deposit was 3 pounds.

Imagine this arbitrage opportunity:
Get 100 Oyster before year end/February/whenever they rise the deposit. Assume they raise it by one pound. Return the Oysters and get the new deposit for a gain of 100 pounds.

XD
