Dow Corning Cases = Bogus?!
Dow Corning Cases = Bogus?! I think not! http://www.scragged.com/articles/i-wuz-robbed.aspx
Read on.. It’s often turned out that the case was bogus from the start: silicone breast-implants are once again available now that the science has proven that they are harmless and that they always were harmless, but that is no consolation to the shareholders and employees of Dow Corning who lost everything when it was driven into bankruptcy by the avalanche of lawsuits. The settlement with Big Tobacco was supposed to fund programs to help smokers quit smoking; the states have spent the money on everything except curing smokers while the lawyers shop for Learjets. When was the last time you heard of a big corporate lawsuit with thousands of victims where the victims actually received anything much? Never.
This article is saying that the people of DOW CORNING were robbed because the implants were always harmless. Wow, people are really clueless to the dangers that are there. How about us women who were robbed and will never be compensated for our loses due to implant illness? Not fair!
I agree, Gretchen. I left them a comment too:
“You have GOT to be kidding me?! Silicone breast implants harmless!! HAHAHA! What a joke that is! Have you even spoken to ANY of the thousands of women who have lost their health and some even their lives to silicone breast implants? Silicone breast implants are not on the market again because the science has proven them to be safe. I don’t know where you got that information, but that is not correct. The FDA is requiring implant manufacturers to PROVE the implants are safe. There will be years and years of studies before anything can be “proven” or “dis-proven.” In the meantime, thousands of women are struggling with re-gaining their health after being poisoned from breast implants, and more and more women will become ill. Of course, the implant manufacturers will just throw those women out of their studies, because they are hellbent are proving their safety. Get your facts straight before your print wrong information!”
