Does nothing ever change in this country? A major corporation contaminates the ground water causing serious health issues and in some cases death, and after years (I mean years) of struggle by the effected residents a settlement is reached that would barely pay for funeral costs. The Record reports today that the most any one family got from the settlement is $ 34,000. I am not saying we shouldn't be a private sector oriented society, but couldn't they be a little more responsible if they cause harm or a little more careful while they make the millions they do?
