Should one assume that Big Oil has caused inflation?



As you already know, I assist Veterans in filing claims for 26 presumptive diseases caused by exposure to burn pits. Now you know what they used to ignite these pits don't you, the same stuff you burn in your back yard. During the first Gulf War Iraq lite up the oil fields in Kuwait, the exposure to that smoke causes cancer. And last but not least the Camp Lejeune incident that not only effected Veterans, it also effect families to include unborn children to the tune of over 3 million exposure cases from 1953 to 1987. And what was released into the ground water.... trichloroethane and benzine. You do know that benzine is a by-product of ? Right? You know what renal toxicity is? Breathing that smoke causes kidney failure! Want to know more about it, give me a shout out, I have first hand experience.

Hi guys. Been staying out of the discussion. Been busy and hanging around the pool when I'm not. Eddie you mentioned trichloroethane. Reminded me of a disaster that happened to our town. From 1973-1980 I worked for Essex Wire, which was gobbled up by United Tecnologies. We made electro-mechanical switches. I was a kid out of high school and was getting my roots in the maintenance department. 1300 women and 200 guys worked there. Anyway, they used huge amounts of trichloroethane. The plating department had big shaker belts that carried oily parts from the press room (brackets and assorted stampings) down into the trichloroethane. They came out spotless. Best parts washer I've ever seen. Charlie Taylor, one of the maintenance guys had the responsibility to get rid of a small amount of the runoff from those belts. Every morning, he would take a forklift, go outside and pick up a 30-gallon drum. It would be about half/three quarters full. He would take it and dump it into the gravel parking lot. It would instantly disappear. About 1000 feet from where he was dumping was the Muskingum River. It's the river you cross over while traveling interstate 70 as you go through Zanesville. A couple years after I left United Tech the entire front page of the Zanesville Times recorder newspaper reads "TRICHLOROETHANE FOUND IN ZANESVILLE WATER SUPPLY !!" To this day, although that business is long gone and nothing is on that property but grass, there are huge aerators that must be maintained on that property. I see maintenance crews maintaining them all the time. That land is a superfund site. One man's decision to dump cost somebody, most likely the taxpayers, millions. Good Old Charlie

Hey Jeff we have something similar down here, back in the 60's and 70's we had a large papermill that would take dioxin and barge it to these large tanks that were in San Jacinto River, dump into those tanks. Well those tanks started leaking years ago, still under water. It is now a multi billion dollar superfund site. They have monitors all around, buoys are put up to keep boats from coming close to them. However when we get hurricanes barges into getting blown into that area.

The papermill closed 30 years ago, and the problem still exists today and no one wants to do anything about it except keep kicking the can down the road. Every time we cross the San Jac River Bridge we look over at that area!

Yeah, I got a double dose of it with Camp Lejeune and cleaning electrical components of special weapons. Never told to mask or glove up. Bingo, 50% kidney loss. Just another paper cut as Randy would say.
