    Maybe , or maybe Operation Paperclip was a figment of imagination concocted by our big government overlords and consumed without question by the hordes of media lemmings amongst our number

    but , probably not

    We'll.....the scientists.......They quickly became "born again" capitalists. The choice for NH is live free or die. Theirs was, be a member of the Nazi party or die. It's the same in the automotive world. Auto engineers are still problem solvers. If the solutions aren't to the liking of the bean counters, the scientist had better come up with another one for their own survival ( or keeping a job)

    What a crock.

    I'm all for a clean environment. But to claim people died directly because of this VW emissions is way out there in the weeds.

    Not surprised at all. Journalism is all by dead. Media is corrupt beyond belief. Bias and agenda are the rule.

    "Statistically, we can't point out who died because of this policy, but some people have died or likely died as a result of this," said Carnegie Mellon environmental engineer professor Peter Adams. He calculates the cost of air pollution with a sophisticated computer model that he and the AP used in its analysis."

    "Likely"

    I wonder if that's the same computer model that's the "proof" that global warming exists. :laugh:

    Same way a statistical analysis predicts how many people will likely die from lung cancer based on smoking rates

    Global temperature rise / man made climate change has a 97% acceptance among scientists in peer reviewed papers but you will never believe that anymore than there is " proof " of the theory of evolution

    Wrong thread
