PBS is good for something

Another aspect of my political agenda. More and more I am seeing how big business has hurt the working class. Watched the PBS documentary on how companies that created a chemical for PVC pipes knew the chemical was dangorous even at small doses (50 ppm) yet were still making their workers in areas where the chemical concentration might be company sanctioned at 500 ppm, or unofficially at 1500 ppm according to the workers. The officials knew this, and they did nothing about it except make sure the news never left the company headquarters. Even when workers were getting brain tumors or cancer or when bones were deteriating so much they could not be seen on x-rays, even then the companies did nothing about it. And they didn't want to tell the workers there may be a problem because it would have been cheaper to settle out of court than to fix the workplace. Sort of like in Fight Club where Edward Norton's character is talking to the woman on the plane:
"Take the number of vehicles in the field, A, multiply by the probable rate of failure, B, multiply by the average out-of-court settlement, C. A times B times C equals X. If X is less than the cost of a recall, we don't do one."
So the companies didn't tell the workers, and they created a phony experiment to make their case that these chemicals were not deadly to the workers. Even in the face of multiple Italian studies showing otherwise. So the companies bottom lines were more important than the health of the workers. And that disregard for the worker just burns my flapjacks. So when I get into office (which one I don't know, but hopefully governor of a state) I am going to make sure the worker is looked after. Companies won't get subsidies, they will have to deal with OSHA and with me. I will personally go after any company that purposly puts workers in harms way. That will be the basis of my political agenda. In case you care.
