2011 Cadillac CTS-V Stolen 8.5.26 - FOUND 8.19.26 but destroyed

“ You have to live to collect pensions and there's a lot of cancer with Gen X/boomer FD employees. Flame retardants are a silent killer.”

Yep. I have a friend and neighbor that used to be fire chief of Menlo Park. He was the man in charge of recovery efforts at 911. Though now retired, he still fights for health care for fire fighters, especially those who worked at 911.

And he spent the last years before he retired, working as Fire Chief from a wheel chair.

Except...it's not "flame retardants" that is the health crisis in our country. It's what people are putting IN their bodies and how they TREAT those bodies.
 
Too bad the choices are now down to one of three or four conglomerates pushing garbage designed to look like food, who care only about their bottom line.
There are other options. It just means that people will HAVE to be inconvenienced to be healthier. Most people are too lazy to make a healthier change and/or don't know or care.
But I 100% blame the big conglomerates for purposely poisoning us, and only giving us unhealthy choices that will make money for them, the medical industry complex and the pharmaceutical companies. Bastages.
 
Yes the mom and dad working full time jobs are too lazy to source quality food in their local community that may not have a single option other than corporate offerings. Oh wait I know they can grow food in their apartment to sustain the family through the harsh winter months. :laughing

I love when it boils down to citizens being at fault for not shouldering more burdens to simply live without being poisoned.

Overreact much Kev? ;)
Apparently you missed the ENTIRE LAST SENTANCE.
You know better then anyone how hard it can be to live/eat healthy.

Your first response blamed people and called them lazy; then you acknowledged corporate malfeasance.

I didn't think I overreacted at all, I hate to see blame placed on end users when their buying choices are artificially and purposefully limited.

:dunno

FYI, that quote you quoted was someone else's quote. I should have used the quote/reply function but I just copied it from another persons post and put quote marks around it. Sorry for the confusion.

Someone should start a separate thread on this subject and not continue it here. The food quality discussion is worthwhile to have.

I know.

I've been to his house in Willow Glen- he got the wheelchair by falling off his fucking roof at home (I think he was cleaning gutters), not a fire or respitory issues. Super cool dude before and after. Menl Fire was super cool too- they had a shop rig up a new van he could drive/commute in from his wheelchair.
