And your point is?
Please do share an example of industrialization that somehow doesn't include unforseen negative health effects.
Go on now, we'll wait.
My point is that capital has successfully fought to put lead into American's blood and lungs for over 100 years.
Name a better duo then tankies and whatsboutism
So in other words you are unwilling to answer the question.
Got it.
This is precisely why I say that you aren't intellectually serious people.
You have one question in your previous comment on the very first line, and it was answered.
Your statement on the 2nd line doesn't really make sense, as I don't think anyone blames people for unforseen negative health effects.
What people are upset about are the forseen, proven, endemic negative health effects being purposefully spread for over a century.
What a crock of shit!
Why would capital willingly poison its workforce as a deliberate policy? That makes zero sense.
I can see capital writing it off as a necessary side-cost of doing business, but I can't see it as a deliberate policy.
Again, it makes no sense. Capital wants a relatively healthy workforce, not one that's falling apart due to lead-caused neurological decrepitude.
