After key donations, GOP tried to keep poisoned kids from suing lead makers
Leaked documents reveal how $750,000 in donations led to laws in Wisconsin.
Between 2011 and 2012, large, secret donations from a billionaire owner of one of America’s leading lead producers provided critical support to Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker and the Republican-led legislature as they weathered recall elections. Not coincidentally, around that time the lawmakers passed two laws that would effectively make it impossible for childhood victims of lead poisoning to sue lead companies, according to leaked documents obtained by The Guardian.
Sue lead companies? What the fuck? Go Sue the government that hasn't changed the pipes in 120 years, but still charges you for it on your bill.
Didn't need another reason, but added this to the list. Really shows the value Republicans put on life, once the fetus becomes a child! Hypocrisy abounds!
Excuse my language. Lousy Bastards!

When I get a bad apple it goes in the disposal, this guy won't fit. But put him out, make a law denying benefits!
Yeah, he's pretty much at the top of the 'deplorable' list.
Ya know, it's not that I'm surprised by this kind of corruption and fuckery, it's that I'm surprised that I could be even more disgusted by US politicians then I was before I heard about this.
I honestly didn't think that was possible.
But now, I've finally come to the realization that there is no bottom.
Anything ANY politician says about what is important to them and the answer is not MONEY – they are lying right down to the American children
all this politician have cause us so much pained
Can't understand why Wisconsin voters don't vote him out
White Man with Forked Tongue Republicans! Evil White Republicans. Money God Rules!
