Dark Waters, "a 2019 American legal thriller film directed by Todd Haynes and written by Mario Correa and Matthew Michael Carnahan. The story dramatizes Robert Bilott's case against the chemical manufacturing corporation DuPont after they contaminated a town with unregulated chemicals."
A large prt of the problem is that we don't even have a name for these corporate crimes. i suggest:
Mercaticide: killing through markets, commerce, and other indirect and distributed methods. Voluntary participation by customers do not exclude deaths or responsibility from this category. Includes propaganda efforts such as anti-vax. Includes deaths due to sale of illegal and legal drugs where addiction plays a part. Includes deaths due to suppression of risk information. Includes deaths due to insufficient regulation (guns.) Includes deaths with distributed responsibility, as in corporations.
Mercatanoxa: harm through markets, commerce, and other indirect and distributed methods.
This is a really good idea. As u point out what's good for the flesh and blood human/person is good for the paper person. Course the scum in the C suite and the crappy politicians won't see it that way. With them, as we know, it's heads I win tails u lose. Keep up the good work.
The DuPont company
I probably need to devote an entire article to dupont 😂
I agree - but a movie already has.
Which one? I don't think I've seen it.

Wow. I did not know about Vioxx. Yikes!
