Asthma does not discriminate by social class. One of our countries dirtiest little secrets is that there are millions who fall into an income level
that is too high to get any assistance with medical costs and too low to afford medical care. That means that people will suffer and some may die
because of this nonsense.
I'm betting that these inhalers add so little CFC's to the atmosphere as to be of no significance. This travesty is brought to us compliments of the
greed of the pharmaceutical companies combined with the radical extremists, neither of which give a damn about their fellow humans and their potential
suffering.
This will NOT HELP the environment. Only a fool would believe that. It WILL HURT innocent people.
When next radical environmental leaders and pharmaceutical company leaders meet on the golf course, they can high five each other for lining their
pockets, while they ignore the fact the golf course is doing more damage in a day than the inhalers ever will.
Don't forget to kiss Gore's backside so you can get a free flight on his new jet, eh. Perhaps in the near future he could fly you over the first
grave filled by someone who had to choose between food or an inhaler.
I've got to go and thaw my pipes. Since Global Warming started it is much colder and they often freeze. (-20 this morning, 28 degrees below the
normal low for this day) Before the warming it never happened. We just had the third coldest summer in 150 years and December just came in as over 3
degrees below normal as has nearly every month for the last three years.
Since Gores right hand at NASA got caught cooking the numbers to support his wild Global Warming theories, I did the numbers myself this time. Just go
to NOAA and get the numbers and do a simple average. The first time I did that I found out one of the weather services had added 3 degrees to all
their averages in favor of Global Warming. They have since that time corrected it so I guess I'm not the only one who caught them.
Still I may invest in Carbon Credits. Even though it is a scam, Gore made many millions and I could use some of that to pay for inhalers, eh.
Look, all kidding aside, we all want a clean environment. Those of us with this thing called common sense think it can be done without destroying the
economy. Those of us with common sense think it can be done without harming innocent people. One need only look at the satellite images to see that
the environmentalists complete attention should be on China and yet?
The problem is that hard core pessimists are at the helm of the environmental movement when what we need is optimists for it to be successful. Nearly
every environmentalist I know is on medication for Bi-Polar disorders or anger issues. Why is that?
