Your government authorizes legaized murder or at the very least plays dumb
Now Corporate America has been caught with its greedy shorts down again. I read in this morning's news that toothpaste made in China has a poisionous chemical used in anti-freeze. Do you know how fast and painful antifreeze kills? All you capitalist worshippers bow down to the almighty priniciple THAT KILLS AND INJURES PEOPLE. Cheaper ingredients make a larger profit, when in hell are you EVER going to wake up? After how many are dead, contact cancer or are injured in another way? Free Trade ought to be a dirty word and any company using these deadly items in their product ought to have their profitable asses sued to high heaven. Instead Joe Six Pac will deal with the results of irresponsibility in whatever way he/she can while corporations get a slap on the hand if that. Or better yet, sell it to the poor like they did in the earlier part of our century when mad cow disease was discovered. The poor cannot sue because they don't have the money and Mr Bush made sure class action suits are difficult to persue. In my view Republicans are the root of the problem with their love of profit at any cost. When is this culture going to stop worshipping commerce for commerce sake and start caring about human life. Where are you Right to Lifers? Oh, I forgot only babies have a right to life...the rest of us can go to hell. Do I sound angry, gee I wonder why.

1. I stopped using toothpaste years ago
when a friend of mine...who everyone thought was crazy showed us an article about this over a decade ago. So I decided to use baking soda and have ever since.
