The State fashions itself as our "protector" from pollution.
Yet in the name of "efficiency" and opposition to pollution a new
additive , methyl t-butyl ether (MTBE) is imposed on our environemt
through our gasoline.MTBE is now known to have both carcinogenic and
neurotoxicological effects in mammals.
The time has come to expose the blatant disregard for public
well-being that MTBE represents and call for the impeachment or defeat
of any politician who supports it. This is an excellent opportunity
for libertarians to expose the hypocrisy and malevolence of statism!
The government viciously and stubbornly refuses to acknowledge its
mistake and continues to pollute our bodies to coverup their
incompetence.
