Since when do Communist countries care about hazardous waste? If they
think that importing the stuff will benifit the country, then they'll
gladly sacrifice the people who actually handle it, or live in it. If
they've truly banned it, then there motives are more than likely
political, or maybe the situation has just gotten THAT bad in some
locals where they can't ignore it.
Well said but EXACTLY the same could be said about counties like the US that are
controlled by big business (through their pet politians). In both cases it's the
people that suffer in the end.
