It turns out that while environmentalist groups try to link fracking to cancer, the Environmental Protection Agency was actively exposing people to dangerous carcinogens — for their own good, of course.
An EPA inspector general's report found that the agency did obtain approval to conduct five "human research studies" exposing "81 human study subjects to" toxic pollutants including diesel exhaust. The IG report found that "exposure risks were not always consistently represented."
So the EPA asked people to expose themselves to dangerous pollutants — some at levels 50 times greater than what is safe — but didn’t tell them about the dangers.
Now why would the EPA perform such dangerous and unconscionable experiments on humans, especially on the elderly and infirm?
Why, they're doing it for the children, of course:
These experiments exposed people, including those with asthma and heart problems, to dangerously high levels of toxic pollutants, including diesel fumes, reads a EPA inspector general report obtained by The Daily Caller News Foundation. The EPA also exposed people with health issues to levels of pollutants up to 50 times greater than the agency says is safe for humans.
The EPA conducted five experiments in 2010 and 2011 to look at the health effects of particulate matter, or PM, and diesel exhaust on humans. The IG’s report found that the EPA did get consent forms from 81 people in five studies. But the IG also found that “exposure risks were not always consistently represented.”
So what if some old and sick people die?
The ends justify the means, peons -- didn't you ever learn that in school?
