U.S Steel Only Pays $300 A Pop To Poison Children




Pittsburgh-based U.S. Steel Corp. will pay $4.45 million to settle a class-action lawsuit by residents of Ecorse and River Rouge over air pollution from an Ecorse plant the company purchased out of bankruptcy in 2003.

Judge Avern Cohn of the U.S. District Court in Detroit approved the settlement Thursday with roughly 7,000 residents allegedly affected by smoke and metallic particle emissions from the U.S. Steel Great Lakes Works plant.


Under the terms of the settlement, residents who fill out paperwork as part of the affected class will receive $300 apiece, for a cumulative $2.1 million. Approximately $1.3 million will be divided between plaintiff attorney Jason Thompson of Southfield-based J. Thompson & Associates P.L.C. and co-counsel from two other local law firms. Another portion goes to court costs and other fees.

“It’s a fair and reasonable settlement, but it’s like many settlements in that each side probably wishes it got a little more,” he said.

So it only costs $300 dollars per person you poison with Manganese....yeah this is what the founding fathers had in mind when they wrote the constitution.

Why aren't these poisoners in jail?

Only in America and only in Detroit

Here are some of the deliriously funny symptoms you can have from Manganese poisoning.

"Symptoms of manganese poisoning are hallucinations, forgetfulness and nerve damage. Manganese can also cause Parkinson, lung embolism and bronchitis. When men are exposed to manganese for a longer period of time they may become impotent.

A syndrome that is caused by manganese has symptoms such as schizophrenia, dullness, weak muscles, headaches and insomnia."

Sorry Timmy that you are having hallucinations, amnesia and headaches after two weeks of not getting enough sleep....Timmy?...It's me...Daddy...remember? ......anyway here is $300 bucks...lets get you a Xbox...that will make it all better.

I like the part where......."Approximately $1.3 million will be divided between plaintiff attorney Jason Thompson of Southfield-based J. Thompson & Associates P.L.C. and co-counsel from two other local law firms. Another portion goes to court costs and other fees."

Isn't it funny how so many people profit from our fellow Americans being poisoned by a godless corporation?

Hey if you can't make grotesquely large profits from defending people from death and corruption why take the oath at all?

This country is so f-d.
