La vice-présidente américaine Kamala Harris a directement annoncé un plan visant à réduire la population afin que leurs enfants puissent respirer de l'air pur et boire de l'eau propre.

Publisher’s rating: Non, la vice-présidente américaine a commis un lapsus lors d'un discours sur le réchauffement climatique et la transition vers une économie propre. Au lieu du terme « pollution », elle emploie accidentellement « population ». La transcription ultérieure de la Maison Blanche corrige l'erreur.

The review says Harris misspoke during a speech about climate change and the transition to a clean economy, using “population” where she meant “pollution.” It reports that the White House transcript later corrected the error and that she did not announce a depopulation plan.

It notes that workers may opt for MEI or Simples Nacional, and that nanoentrepreneurs with annual income up to R$40,500 are exempt from consumption taxes unless they opt in.
