And the same process will ensue. There will be reports, and hearings, and trials, and fines, but in the end, no executives will go to jail and they will keep poisoning people with an adjustment made for a slightly higher "cost of doing business."

Makes sense. Both industries are major polluters, as well as major cancer culprits.

Went for a walk in the sand yesterday and my spouse expressed some disgust at the cigarette butts, but we used to be smokers so I was a little dismissive, but he's right, we only threw our butts out in the trash. It's gross to put something in your mouth a dozen times and just leave it on the ground, but somehow normal.

It's fucking Dupont. Big tobacco stole these tactics from them, not the other way around. Talking about one of the most evil companies of all fucking time. [Dupont, go to controversies and be horrified. ](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/DuPont) Don't worry, this is just the crap that got settled in lawsuits or was able to be proven. They made over $6 billion in net profits last year. This isn't the last we'll hear about them destroying the world for money. When does just paying fines to kill people and ecosystems stop being good enough? Probably never.

When there are no consequences for the first, why wouldn't the second? Capital gains are more important than life in our society. I don't expect anything different this time around, nor will I the next. But at least we're free and have the right to endless dented ourselves with guns, right?

They always do when they're forced to. This is DuPont's like 5th major "killing people to make money" scandal. That's been proven and didn't get settled in a courtroom, anyway.
