Comment | I suspect we all know that in 1949 General Motors was convicted of "a conspiracy to destroy the mass transit system of the United States." We also know they received a slap on the wrist and then did it with the collusion of many companies dealing in expendables, chief among the expendables being petro. In essence, when an elder or person with a compromised respiratory system must stay inside or actually dies from pollution - and it happens - we can lay these deaths and loss of freedoms at the feet of a corporation which had become sociopathic. One which placed the monetary interests of it's officers and shareholders above the public good, and public health. This is literally psychotic, and this same mindset is trying to convince you that somehow the exacerbation of these problems is in your best interest. The actual truth is somewhat contrary to that. Even if they bribe you and lobby you for these adverse impacts on public health, you still will be forced to breathe the bad air. You will have more unhealthy toxins flood the environment and settling into your water and food supplies. Your children and grandchildren will be adversely impacted. Why? So that a few other people make even more money than they already do as they rake in record profits in hard economic times. Don't you question why they see a huge need for increased pollution when they personally are quite comfortable? It would seem that if they are having corporate difficulty they could take the billions of dollars in shareholder payouts, executive bonuses and salaries, and reinvest these monies in improved technologies and processes. Maybe even build a new refinery for the first time in over 30 years in the US. Wow, crazy! |
