rogerluli Posted September 24, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 24, 2008 I just read on a blog that Sanlu was not even being inspected for quality because...THEY WERE SUCH A WELL-RUN COMPANY... See there is humor even in a tragic story like this one... Link to comment
rogerluli Posted September 25, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 25, 2008 It must be comforting to the Chinese people to know that their leaders are not fed the same chemical slop that they have to eat... No they are fed the choicest organic food provided for by the... STATE COUNCIL CENTRAL GOVERNMENT OFFICES SPECIAL FOOD SUPPLY CENTER... Whose director Zhu Yonglan said..."We all know that AVERAGE production facilities use LARGE quantities of chemical fertilizers and pesticides. Antibiotics and hormones are commonly used in raising livestock and poultry. Farmed aquatic products are CONTAMINATED by various kinds of water pollution. It goes without saying that these are harmful when consumed by humans."... B) http://ap.google.com/article/ALeqM5iXPQIfJ...cMx8bAD93D9MTG1 Link to comment
georgeandli Posted September 25, 2008 Report Share Posted September 25, 2008 Three classes now? Got a friend with the Kennedy tumor thing. He's eight years into into it. Worry about everything. Or plan on checking out early. Link to comment
Sebastian Posted September 26, 2008 Report Share Posted September 26, 2008 Roger - ya, granted, but melamine is none of those things (fertilizer, pesticide, antibiotic or hormone). Some knucklehead poured it into the stock whilst mixing in the vat. I wish I could find me a funny thing in that, but it's gonna fall flat. I guess when the CCP learns how to use melamine for population control purposes, then the jokes on them. Link to comment

Or plan on checking out early. I used to worry about everything and then I stopped listening to the news... And I still think checking out early is NOT a good plan... Link to comment

I think this kind of "dark humor" would be the only way to keep my sanity when I considered the actual madness all around me... Link to comment
georgeandli Posted September 26, 2008 Report Share Posted September 26, 2008 Greed pure and simple. Make maximum profit fast and then run with bags of money. Welcome to capitalism at its worse. Link to comment

With the total lack of transparency and accountability with the government how can the people ever really know what is going on??? Gosh I am still drinking milk every morning this week. Isn't that I do not know it is poisoned? But I know whatever I eat it is kind of poisoned and you never know if it is even worse than the milk. PS. Don't you think it is time to change a new avater?
