How many politicians were bought off before the "pressure " funny how corporations are apparently more powerful than the governments of the EU.

Yes so fucked up. Not only letting them destroy the planet but do it so cheaply.

Its even more fucked up to think that if everyone in america donated a dollar to a bribery fund, we could buy back our politicians. Thats how little we are worth to them.

This was honestly one of the key things in my head that made the EU better than the US. That they protect their citizens and nature at least so far as to ban toxic chemicals. Neoliberal society really just drops the ball when things get tough.
