Air pollution linked to genetic mutations |
Too bad policies to clean up our environment don't square
with George Bush's comic book conception of big business
in America:
Air pollution linked to genetic mutations
By LAURAN NEERGAARD

WASHINGTON (AP) ? Breathing soot from factories or highways may
cause genetic damage that can be passed to the next generation,
scientists found in an experiment performed on mice.
No one yet knows if people could inherit pollution-damaged DNA
that harms their health. But the discovery comes as scientists
already are calling for more research into the dangers of
particulates ? microscopic soot particles linked to asthma,
heart disease and other health problems.
"At the moment, we are grappling with the fact that even though
the air is visibly cleaner, we're still finding adverse health
effects" from particulates, said Dr. Jonathan Samet of Johns
Hopkins University, who headed a recent National Academy of
Sciences probe of the pollutant. . . .

If health problems caused by polluters cause $10 billion in health care
costs for Americans and the cost to fix it to industry was $1 billion,
would it be worth doing? No company would spend the money on its own unless
it had to because it would become uncompetitve & go broke. That's when a
government regulation makes sense, or do you disagree?

Neither is the job of government. Take responsibility for yourself
and stop whining at the government to do your work for you.

We'd still have slavery if we listened to doctrinaire idiots like you.
I supposed you don't think it's the job of government to break up
monopolies either.
You need to take Econ 101
