Big Government Nanny State Kills

For decades big top down government systems have killed. Some have done it by simply lining up their enemies and shooting them. Others have simply resorted to making the undesirables and troublemakers “disappear”. Others, like our own, have simply done it through incompetence masquerading as do-gooderism.

More than two years after hurricanes Katrina and Rita hit the gulf coast, a new report shows the FEMA trailers used to help victims are causing a serious health threat themselves.
Tests show some pretty serious formaldehyde contamination.

The newly released tests show that out of 600 trailers tested, 95 percent of the temporary housing units have at least twice the CDC’s maximum recomended level for long-term formaldehyde exposure.

In some extreme cases the levels were 70 times higher than the standard.

Formaldahyde is a toxic gas that can cause serious health issues.

Hundreds are suing trailer manufacturers, accusing the companies of jeopardizing their health by providing FEMA with poorly constructed campers.

Of course, if you don’t like the free housing you have been so generously (and unconstitutionally) given you could just go and get your own. What? Self reliance? No, no … government will save us … from government?

Gee, so now we can add housing to the long list of things that government can’t do right. And some of you want to let them run healthcare too? What are you? Suicidal?
