We need one of our capable conservative leaders (Mark Levin, paging Mr. Mark Levin) to write an expose on the whole Rachel Carson/DDT scandal and tie it into the overall, planned reduction of the population

It - the DDT ban - has caused literally millions of deaths by malaria over the past thirty-odd years. DDT was - is - truly a miracle of twentieth century chemical science. Yet the all-caring environmental Luddites don't care about the cost in human lives - it's okay, they'll send more mosquito nets.

You misunderestimate the number and you left out dengue.

Call a spade a spade. The DDT ban was genocide on the 3rd world in the tropics. But hey, all those mosquitos are more deserving of life than people, right?

I have family in places where dengue, malaria, etc. are serious business and for me, it's personal.
