And I imagine in places like Turkey, deaths of ANY type of worker is pretty common, and just “part of the job”.

I know in Indonesia life was pretty cheap. “Build it to U.S. seismic codes!? Ha. At most we would only have three trucks and three drivers up there if it did fail.”

I have seen film of a ship breaking operation in India, and I’m willing to bet they have two fatalities every fifteen minutes.

The fumes in that engine room couldn’t have been any more toxic than the brain pollution that series pumped out once a week. Those plots were violations of international maritime law.

I think I’ve seen the show about India. It’s a business that substitutes cheap labor for expensive capital, and why worry about a few deaths when there are always plenty more workers?

It’s a very unpleasant world out there.

Wouldn't know, since unless she's a homeless junkie or some sort of radical activist she'd have no reason to hang around Braddock anymore.

Besides....she's 59. Can't we cut her some slack?
