Because Your Government Cares About You

April 11, 2017 by V the K

The EPA conducted unlawful experiments on humans, then lied about it and tried to cover it up.

The Nuremberg Code; the Helsinki Accords; the Belmont Report; and U.S. common law, statutes, and regulations, to include state laws and the Federal Code “Common Rule” and EPA rule 1000.17, all prohibit human experimentation that might cause harm to the subjects.  Human risk can be considered only for the researchers themselves in circumstances where the research is essential and vital.  The civil or criminal offense of human experimentation that risks harm to the subjects would be either exposure to harm or the fear of harm by infliction of mental distress if subjects found out that the public position of the EPA is that small particles are toxic and lethal and cause cancer.  Which lie to believe?  That is the twist – you can’t make these things up.

In 2011 and 2012, Milloy and Dunn wrote letters to the EPA, the NIH journal editor who published the article, the EPA inspector general, and the federal Office for Scientific Integrity.  They wrote to all the physicians in Congress, all the deans of the ten domestic medical schools doing human experiments, and state medical boards in North Carolina and Michigan, all attempting to stop the human experiments.

The authors have written about the EPA project of research that exposed human beings of all ages, even children, to that same small particle air pollution to see if they could cause some harm.  EPA sponsorship of these studies at ten domestic and six foreign medical schools was admitted under oath by an EPA official, Wayne Cascio, M.D., and it is unethical and illegal.

And when they got caught, they hired another agency to conduct an “investigation,” (cough… cover up … cough) by forming a committee stacked with EPA cronies and apparatchiks.

    By clicking on the introductory link, I quickly became disgusted.

    Milloy discovered a report in Environmental Health Perspectives, a journal published online and in hard copy by the National Institutes of Health, that reported an experiment on a 57-year-old lady subjected to small particle air pollution much higher than the EPA says is safe, in a chamber at the University of North Carolina School of Medicine EPA laboratory for human research.

    Get that? Environmental Health Perspectives didn’t flag this crime. They published it as if it were just a benign spot of information. The National Institutes of Health passed the “experiment” along as if it were just another cure for toenail fungus. The EPA created the experiment as if it were testing allergies. The University of North Carolina School of Medicine relinquished its ethical mandate of “first do no harm” and gobbled up the federal money.

    Ultimately, some concerned citizens “discovered” what was being done in the name of science to a 57-year-old lady and they sounded the alarm.

    Here is a point of view: take the people on death row and harvest their body parts. Or, experiment on them until they croak. Or, read the stuff Mengele dreamed up to do on living goners.

    Mel Gibson directed a film about the remarkable Desmond Doss who became the first conscientious objector to be awarded the Medal of Honor. His dedication to saving lives of the wounded in the Battle of Okinawa was notable for how far “above and beyond the call of duty” he went in fulfilling his mission. He is the epitome of valor.

    Compare that with subjecting a 57-year-old lady to inhaling small particle air pollution that is much higher than the EPA says is safe. Compare that with being a medical institution in which “scientists” plan out, conduct, monitor and study the “results” of such experimentation.

    How does this sort of thing happen? How does the VA hospital system respond to people dying waiting for an appointment?

    There is such a thing as “willful neglect” which is a benign way of saying incompetence or malfeasance. If you could sue these people, there would be an entirely different set of protocols and accountability measures in place.

    Instead, the IRS saturation bombs political enemies, Lois Lerner skates and a truly corrupt director smirks in place. Eric Holder is held in “Contempt of Congress” and it turns out to be 90% milder than a slap on the wrist.

    What I admire about Trump is that he smells this sort of corruption and he pursues it. He understands that optimal is not the equivalent of the perfect. He doesn’t fall short, he sets achievable goals and tries to exceed them. As a collegial sort of manager, he tasks people to ferret out the problems and suggest the workable solutions. But he never abdicates his authority to put his final approval on even the most particular of details. He pulls people along with him and those who believe that they are his GPS learn that no one is indispensable in the Trump galaxy.

    And, Trump moves continuously and relentlessly forward. He is all “git-er-done” and if he hits granite, he recalculates and moves forward. People generally do not comprehend what it means to be guided by a deep belief system. Trump is larger than life and undertaking the prodigious accomplishment is in his DNA.

    The EPA is in Trump’s crosshairs. Much of protecting the environment is common sense and smart stewardship. Much of the EPA is made up of fat-assed ideologues who believe they are “called” to tinker and save the planet through absolutist decrees. Trump has tasked Scott Pruitt to weed the the place and landscape it anew. In Trump’s world, Pruitt is free to do what Trump expects and he will have free reign so long as he tasks himself to do what he is tasked to do.

    I can’t wait to hear the pigs squeal when deliverance comes to the IRS and the VA.

    Story #37,888 that should be huge. Because it is huge. Scandalous. Shocking. But the Controlled Media will bury it.

    Meh. The gummint is always experimenting on the citizenry.

    E.g.: what will happen if we move poor people into middle-class neighborhoods and make the middle-class residents pay for it? I don’t know – let’s give it a whirl.

    E.g.: what if we design curricula to encourage pupils to hate their culture and nurse grievances over micro-aggressions? I don’t know, let’s find out.

    And so on.
