Define ‘Terrorist’
Charlie Pierce has taken to collecting incidents of death and destruction caused by a lack of regulations, and compares the reaction to these incidents to the reaction of the few, scattered ‘terrorist’ attacks.
Unregulated industries are killing people, and there is no accountability. Texas hasn’t changed anything to prevent another fertilizer plant from blowing up and wiping out another town, like West, Texas. The company behind the chemical spill in West Virginia has declared bankruptcy to avoid any responsibility. Neither had liability insurance, in the current governmental climate they don’t need it.
We don’t have the people necessary to conduct inspections and enforce what few regulations there are in place, so people can just accept that some of them are going to be killed by corporations, and no one will do anything about it.
