As an example --- and why hysteria is not always warranted.

--- "Mercury is found at varying levels (0 - 2 µg/L) throughout North Carolina. Only 0.03% of wells sampled for mercury in North Carolina from 2018- 2019 exceeded the state standard (1 µg/L). "

Of course, there are pollutants in our environment, but generally we in the US are in a better situation today than in decades past. Excepting one great pollutant. Government.

Thinking of "lead in paint chips" and small children versus the situation of small children in Democrat-led inner cities today, I'd pick paint chips over being shot at.

“Thinking of “lead in paint chips” and small children versus the situation of small children in Democrat-led inner cities today, I’d pick paint chips over being shot at.”

Something important in what you say here about the paint chips. “Who” did the studies and was their agenda honest and unbiased? Or was there a psyops behind it? And would they purposely fudge the studies to fit an agenda?

Reminds me of a study that came out when I was about 12. The state of Ca produced a “study” that claimed milk causes cancer. It killed the dairy industry for about three years before it started to come back again.

Turns out they hid the true whole story. The true facts were that you would have to drink a truck load a day for 300 years for milk to “possibly” give you cancer.

This is how they fudge these things to fit an agenda. When they say something “may cause cancer” it could be three consecutive lifetimes before it actually will. They hide that inconvenient fact.
