BHOPAL LIVES

In spite of the lovely adds , corporations are never ever , your friend . If they want to keep the privilege of personhood , they need to have also the responsibility of it , and do right by these people .

ya, not even 1% of the population received the settlement money...

if Dow bought it, they should clean it up.

yes they deserve justice

its been said capitalism brings out the best in us, when all it does is bring out the worst in us. We must stop acting like savages, we're not even acting like animals anymore...

When will the human fife and basic decency be above profit? These poor babies with birth defects... How? How? Those responsible for such a tragedy can go on with their life knowing they caused this tragedy? There is so much ignorance in the world.

Wow, $470 Million settlement and people only received $1000??? You can only imagine all the negative things I want to say, but I'm going to save them for today.

I hope these people get some help and get the government to start paying!! These type of news articles should always be in the front of current. Getting attention and the help from our community to spread the word!!

I got my best lesson in high finance in 1985 when I attended a stockholders' meeting of the Templeton Mutual Fund on the top floor of the World Trade Center tower in New York. There were about 75 people in a conference room that overlooked the Battery, the Statue of Liberty, and Ellis Island.

John Templeton, a white-haired millionaire, spoke briefly about money being an integral part of what he called "progress in religion" and then took questions from the audience.

A man stood up in the aisle, approached the microphone, and asked Templeton, what the Templeton Fund's position was on Union Carbide, considering the tragic accident in Bhopal. Templeton replied that immediately after the accident, Union Carbide stock dropped quickly, so the Templeton Fund rushed to buy the now-devalued Union Carbide stock, in order to profit from the situation.

This brief but revelatory explanation of "progress in religion" was followed by a general rush to the dessert cart, where a dowager in expensive clothing threw my five-year-old son to the ground in order to reach the cake before he did.

Thank you for this. The people of Bhopal must see justice. I have posted about this before only to see it fall into oblivion. Sad so many don't care.
