Leaded Gasoline Linked To The Rise Of MAGA?

Image
A breakthrough new medical study is further illustrating the devastating long-term health effects lead can have on children. In the study, researchers show that high levels of lead absorbed in the blood can lead to reduced gene expression, a phenomenon that can cause long-term risks. There is evidence suggesting a link between lead poisoning and paranoia, particularly in individuals with a history of early childhood exposure. While the link is not a direct cause-and-effect relationship, research indicates that lead exposure can contribute to changes in brain chemistry and development, potentially leading to increased risk of mental health problems, including paranoia. Lead can disrupt brain function, affecting areas involved in cognitive processes, mood regulation, and decision-making. This can lead to difficulties with attention, memory, and executive function, potentially contributing to symptoms of anxiety and paranoia. Personality Changes: Studies have shown that childhood...

#Deregulation Equals #Unaccountable #NuclearPoweredBillionaires Big tech is turning to old reactors (and planning new ones) to power the energy-hungry data centers that "AI" systems need. Musk buys $1.5bn in bitcoin, pushing price to new high. Elon Musk has helped to drive popularity of cryptocurrencies, including bitcoin and dogecoin. Bitcoin Miners Powering the AI Revolution. Right-wing dark money groups are lobbying for the US and state governments to invest billions of dollars in Bitcoin reserves, jeopardizing public funds and the environment alike. Bill Gates, Jeff Bezos, Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, Larry Ellison, and other so-called “tech bros” who also happen to be among the world’s richest men have thought about how the energy industry can—or must, in their view—keep pace with "AI’s" rapid growth.

"The goal of these evangelical schools was not a “better form of education” but denial of education." Why Humanity Must Overcome Religion | Carl Sagan. https://youtu.be/-EdmF4OyoKI Segregation Academies Then and School Choice Configurations Today in Deep South States. 70 years ago, school integration was a dream many believed could actually happen. It hasn’t. The Deep South states deliberately circumvented Brown by eliminating funding for integrated schools; impeding the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People’s (NAACP) legal activities; allowing state actions to nullify federal authority within their borders; enforcing unreasonable pupil assignment laws; and providing financial aid to pri vate segregated schools (Ravitch, 1983; Yale Law Journal, 1973). Simply stated, Deep South states attempted to perpetuate dual school systems. In response to these circumventing strategies by local school boards and state governments, the Supreme Court i...

When Trump says he wants to replace federal income taxes with tariffs, what's he really saying? He's saying American's shouldn't pay for their own federal government, the rest of the world should.. Nothing unreasonable about that is there...? EXPLAINED: Trump Wants To Abolish The IRS. To replace the roughly $3.5 trillion dollars in revenue raised by individual income tax with tariffs would require astronomically high tariff rates. So, if the citizen's of the blue states want to support their governors in a meaningful way, stop funding the "dick-tater..." #TAXREVOLT Could Trump’s tariffs replace the income tax? #AgentOrange shows that historically, tariffs only bought in a small fraction of what income taxes currently yield, meaning federal spending would have to be sharply cut in order to phase out the income tax.

Is it incompetence or is there a plan? #Unaccountable #NuclearPoweredBillionaires #Deregulation #ConflictofInterest After 4 Years And Billions Of Dollars, The Texas Grid Is Not Fixed.. Texas has spent years tweaking its electric grid, but it’s still not fixed. How do we know this? ERCOT, the Electric Reliability Council of Texas, projects an 80% likelihood of rolling blackouts if a storm the magnitude of Winter Storm Uri hits the state this winter. Prior to Uri in February 2021, the probability of rolling blackouts was only 5%.
