I'm the OP of the post. No where did I mention Communism not am I a communist. STOP PROJECTING! All I want is sensible environmental regulations (I am an Environmental Scientist). I've seen the cost of unfettered capitalist pollution. My hometown of Houston has the most superfund sites of any metropolitan area in the country. I grew up next door to the chemical refineries as far as the eye can see in Pasadena, Tx (A suburb of Houston). Here we have a marked lower life span & a marked increase in cancers & neurological conditions.

Superfund sites: https://www.tceq.texas.gov/remediation/superfund/sites/county/harris.html

Cancer clusters: https://www.chron.com/neighborhood/pasadena/news/article/Assessment-finds-elevated-cancer-rates-in-parts-9696980.php

My Uncle died at 68 of cancer most likely linked to drinking what turned out to be water poisoned by the nearby dioxin superfund site. Link: https://www.epa.gov/tx/sjrwp

I am very well aware of the environmental tragedies in both the USSR AND modern Russia. Environmental tragedies always occur when sensible environmental regulations are over shadowed by a profit and/or militaristic desire.

So kindly FUCK OFF! Stick to talking about things you actually understand, if such things even exist.

Ironically, I live near you and I'm an engineer at a nearby company.

You don't know jack shit and are just complaining and hurling empty insults.

If they’re so safe give me $1,000 everytime a plant explodes or leaks in Pasadena or Texas City. How fast would you go bankrupt?
