"I've lost my father, my mother, my stepmother and my father in law," said Nelson, who now lives in Washington state. "They're all dead. All from asbestos ... W.R. Grace was the one responsible, but right now, I hate my government. The state knew. (The money) isn't going to do anything for me."
And two decades ago he probably railed against the intrusion of government regulation and voted only for republicans right up until he got ill.
Meanwhile the patriotic conservatives running W.R. Grace stashed all the profits off-shore and then declared bankruptcy just before the lawsuits started. Now the tax payers get to clean up their mess.
God Bless republicans and keep drinkin' the Kool-aid folks.
Sigh. What a shame. People dying, people going to die, people suffering, people getting screwed by the lawyers and all you can think to do is make a political statement out of it.
We played in the vermiculite that was used for insulation in many Montana homes and lots of homes here still have Abestos and concrete siding shingles on them !!
It's a shame that those lawyers for those people that had lung cancer setteled for such little money. The Lawyers will get most of it and the ones with lung cancer will only get very little. What a shame.
So each victim (or the estate) gets roughly under 14,000 and the lawyers get 14,000,000. American justice.
