It was gratifying to hear environmental lead exposure mentioned even though it sped by like a mile marker on I-35. The correlation between lead toxicity and behavioral, psychological and cognitive development is so widely accepted and so little mentioned in discussions like these it causes one to wonder. It's understandable that a couple of generations of public policy experts and politicians, including presidential candidates, who embraced so many crackpot hypotheses about education and policing detrimental to minority communities would like to change topics and move on. It's all about the future after all and not the past. Of course, concerted action to clean the environment aint gonna happen, so best to just fly into Flint MI for a photo op and leave the task of dealing with the human consequences for someone twenty years down the road...,(reply>), As I understand it, leaded water has had less of an impact than leaded gasoline did. If you want to really drive (pun intended) that point home.
