Jan 20, 2012 - Nothing new here. India has NEVER regulated ANY industry or imposed ANY worker saftey upon ANY corporation, excpet when there is an incident that immediately involves a few thousand people.Even so, at most, they may regulate or decommission a single plant at the site of the disaster.India REALLY gives a shit about its people. Sure.

Jan 20, 2012 - @jellodragon7 LMAO Porki dipshit. Jackoff to your pedo Muhammad, you sister fucking Muslim.
tjohn1986 Says:
Jan 20, 2012 - @yourtreat2 Yeah the other way around sunshine. India was a complete command economy until 1991. It is only after reforms that it even made some progress. Try not opening your mouth about things you know nothing about.

Jan 20, 2012 - @mrfaithandphysics It is fine considering the alternative is being homeless. They don't use asbestos b/c they like it, they use it b/c it's the cheapest. If capitalism doesn't work then how did this country become the richest? Try again.

Jan 21, 2012 - Please broadcast some thing positive about India some times Aljazeera. It's so boring that you only report the atrocities done by US and Israel, poverty and slums of India. I know you have the responsibility of degrading the non believers. But still...

Jan 24, 2012 - Not once in that video did they mention that Russia, Brazil, China and Kazakhstan all produce more asbestos than Canada. Those four countries will simply expand production and export more asbestos to India if Canada shuts down their asbestos mines and lays off all those employees in Quebec. Who will that help?? I've lived in India and traveled extensively, I've seen the homeless sleeping under plastic sheets, and they'd all rather have a sheet of asbestos over their heads than no roof at all
TrevorHlynski Says:
Jan 24, 2012 - I appreciate how Al Jazeera covers issues no other media outlet does, but it would be nice if they proposed some real solutions rather than just biased and misleading attacks against those who are successful

Feb 22, 2012 - @tjohn1986 Thanks for your civilized reply. I amost don't read mail anymore. You do know I was being sarcastic? Ok. PJ=Peter Joseph? Indeed. But see, I smoke ciggarettes. I like them. Without them I would be a nervous wreck. Does it make sense? No. Does asbestos? No. It's broken. Seriously broken way of life and no, I don't have the answer. But Zeitgeist or VP is the only real alternative that I've heard that includes common sense in our lives. Things that last! Wow.
