Item description from seller

The Assumption Of These Papers Is That The Justification For Government Is To Provide For The Common Welfare. All People Are Concerned About At Least Some Kinds Of Pollution. However, Governments Throughout The World Have Few Independent And Effective Monitoring Mechanisms In Place To Reveal The Location Or Extent Of Most Kinds Of Pollution Except For The Most Basic Or Physically Unavoidable Possible Polluters Of The Commonest And Most Obvious Toxins And Trash Can Be Monitored, But This Happens In Only The Most Extreme Cases. No Government Or Private Entity Attempts To Monitor All Water And Air Everywhere. No One Really Knows What Are Exactly The Levels Of Each Of Thousands Of Toxic Substances In Their Own Drinking Water And Air, Only, At Best, The Results Of A Few Very General Tests, Such As Larger Particulate (Rather Than Chemical) Contaminants, Or, At Best, A Few Of The Most Well-Known Toxic Materials. Further, The Government Avoids Even Considering Such Obvious Pollutants As Rubber Worn Off Of Tires, Or The Level Of Toxic Ingredients In The Ever Increasing Number Of Large Apartment Buildings And Rest Homes Being Built Next To Or Within A Few Hundred Feet Of Major Freeways And Even Freeway Intersections In Major Cities, Where Pollution Maps Take Immense Spikes. It Is The Responsibility Of Government To Identify Pollutants Of All Kinds, No Matter How Common And "Unavoidable", And Legislate And Regulate For The Common Welfare. Federal, State, County And Local Governments Are Perfectly Capable Of Cooperating For Regular Sampling In Each Square Mile Of The Continental United States As A Good Start. Such Legislation And Regulation Would, In The Long Term, Have Immense Economic Benefit, As Healthy People Are Much Less Costly And Contribute Much More Tor Economic Growth And Even Taxation Than Sickly, Stupefied Ones, Even Though It Is In The Short-Term Interest Of A Relatively Few Investors And Politicians To Ignore These Factors.…
