Why the hate on the gens?

Most of this stuff was not widely known. There was no internet, so you only got info from 3 tv channels and a newspaper, magazines and conversation.

Blame it on the corps.

Lead poisoning was discovered in a year that is denoted with "B.C.E".

It wasn't news when the additive was invented for gasoline in the 20s, and it wasn't news all through the 70s.

Of course blame it on the corporations. On GM specifically, who also lobbied for jay-walking to become illegal so their cars would stop getting bad press for killing people.

Intelligent people read books.
