I do like how their argument basically boils down to "You obviously don't understand how much it will cost us to clean up the giant toxic mess we spent so much money trying to hide."

Then they'll have to do what they say they do best: innovate and be efficient.

That’s always their argument.

Dumping trash in the ocean?

Asbestos?

Cigarettes?

Chemicals in the ground?

DDT?

Carbon in the atmosphere?

"You obviously don't understand how much it will cost us to clean up the giant toxic mess we spent so much money trying to hide."

Which also means line goes down. That is unprecedented, and it'd lower the quality of their lives. Think about the rich people!

So, when do we eat them?
