No air quality control standards, no pollution controls, no environmental protections. Why do you think all these American businessmen were so interested in moving their operations over to you? Did you think it was only because of your willingness to treat your people like slaves?

You got your thriving economy, now figure out how to live with it.

For some reason this sounds so deja vue-like. I wonder if anyone in Pittsburgh feels the same way.
