I’m sure the private sector will take care of it
Aaaany day now. When they eliminate public schools and replace them with private rather.
You think they won’t save money by putting lead in things?
Good point, and with the costs saved from removing flouride, they could further increase child-hydration profit margins by simply having them eat the paint off the walls instead.
Solution: don't have children. Let some more intelligent species with kindness and empathy take over.
Darn, I already had one. I might consider handing them off to a more intelligent species though, if you have a recommendation? Bonobo maybe?
I suggest we do some genetic fiddling, like how scientists gave the NOVA1 gene to mice. They have been shown to have more empathy than humans.
Those same lead filled schools will be sold to private equity companies for pennies on the dollar because they will say they are full of dangerous chemicals. Those private equity companies will rent them out to charter schools and take in the same kids that were already going but charge the parents on top of taking the vouchers the govt gives out.
