Shocking video of toddler in China and politics as usual in USA
Shocking USAToday story with video of toddler hit and run and people passing by, not helping. Politicians stand by and do nothing to prevent or help school children harmed by toxic products and chemicals used at private schools and public schools, in day-cares, religious, recreation, parks, and other facilities were children live, learn, and play.
How can we let Presidential hopefuls, politicians, law makers, and lobbyists bicker over abortion and contraceptive issues, then show little to no concern about news reports of thousands of living children harmed at school every year by poor environmental and chemical conditions?
Could USA political policy of prioritizing economic growth over child safety lead to disregard for human life like that shown in the film clip in the USAToday story? Highly possible. For half a century, product and chemical manufacturer actuaries and insurance carriers factor costs of litigation and settlements for death and injury against cost of fixing dangerous designs or eliminating hazardous chemicals. How else can our government officials explain more than thirty years of school injuries from application of spray on foam roofing, and polyurethane coatings during the school day? Nothing has changed in the almost 30 years since my toxic injury from application of spray on foam roofing during the school day at the school where I was teaching. - http://www.toxicjustice.com/ I hear stories from families every month with children exposed to dangerous chemicals at school, and injuries to schoolchildren from the same product that injured me. Yet no federal policy forbids this.
Toddler hit-and-run sparks outrage in China
If you want to encourage change, here is your chance. Voice your concerns that we not allow schools schoolchildren to be seriously and repeatedly injured by dangerous environments and chemicals, then allow those who injured them or failed to help, to go unpunished. Contact CNN and tell them you want to see Toxic Schools Part 3 on Toxic Justice. Toxic Justice was spotlighted on CNN's program Toxic Schools part 1 and 2 with Dr. Sanjay Gupta, Toxic Schools - http://healthyschoolscampaign.typepad.com/healthy_schools_campaign/2012/01/school-indoor-air-quality-in-the-spotlight-this-weekend-with-cnns-dr-sanjay-gupta-.html?cid=6a00d83452013f69e20162ff922c6d970d#comment-6a00d83452013f69e20162ff922c6d970d

Toxic cleanup from Ind. fire may take weeks
Spray on foam insulation is a hazard from manufacture, transport, storage, application, removal, disposal, and because it is extremely flammable. The foam and its sealant poisoned me while application during school hours. Think of the danger of acres of school roofs on fire. No child could get far enough away to be safe. Home builders encourage filling attic roofing and walls with this material.
Firefighters and rescue workers are endangered. Why are schools and home builders calling this product "green" and targeted in marketing campaigns after 30 years of documented dangers? Spray on foam roofing and sealant may safe energy costs, but is the reward worth the harm to the environment and to human and animal life? Why no restriction from the EPA? Warning to school officials and builders from the CDC? Why no concern shown by the US Education dept.? Where is Michelle Obama whose campaign to save obese children was widely covered by the media?

Fire officials said Sunday the smoke was toxic and urged people to stay in their homes and keep their windows closed.
Barrels of liquid cyanide that are used by the company to fireproof insulation after after its installation contributed to the toxic smoke. When inhaled, cyanide can cause headaches, dizziness, seizures and death within minutes or hours, depending on how much is in the air.

"(Reuters) - Prosecutors sued a large U.S. mortgage broker and two top executives for an alleged decade-long fraud that cost the government hundreds of millions of dollars on risky home loans." - Reuters
Global economic meltdown has many demons, not the least of which is the US Court system. An unemployed man who had stolen a Barbie Doll for his child at Christmas would get harsher treatment. Rampant fraud exists because the reward outweighs the risk. That has to change.
