The Nature Nazis Strike Again

This time they’re going after asthmatics. That’s right. Starting January 1 all asthma inhalers containing CFCs will be outlawed. The cost of the new “green” inhalers ranges from $30 to $60 (as opposed to $5 to $10).

In other words, while the nation was having a debate about how to lower health care costs, the enviro-nazis were seeing to it that health care is more expensive for millions of Americans.

In addition to the added costs, some patients are allergic to ingredients in the new eco-friendly inhalers and these new inhalers have harsher side effects than the old inhalers. World wide use of the old inhalers accounts for less than 1% of global CFC emissions.

Is it really worth risking the health of millions of pulmonary patients for something with such miniscule effects on the environment? This is just another example of the environmentalists’ disregard for humanity. If you are against this new law, you can sign a petition to save CFC inhalers.

    The health of millions means nothing to these people, case in point, Rachel Carson. Malaria has killed untold millions since she went on her rampage.

    Absolutely unreal. What’s next? Soda contains too much cardonation? Let’s outlaw that too. Jackasses.

    As an lifelong asthmatic I really can’t believe this! On the savecfcinhalers.org website (which has tons of information and a petition too) there are some incredible quotes from doctors working with the UN including this winner::
    “THE COMMON GOOD SHOULD NOT BE TOTALLY FORGOTTEN BY PATIENTS WHO HAVE ASTHMA.”
    -Professor of Medicine Adam Wanner, MD, University of Miami School of Medicine, Former President of the American Thoracic Society (member, U.S. Stakeholders’ Group on MDI Transition), member, United Nations’ MATOC since 1995 (Medical Aerosol Technical Options Committee), Pulmonologist

    Please visit my blog post from yesterday to hear my humorous (hopefully) and informative take on this.

  4. [...] was the ALA when affordable and effective inhalers were banned? Don’t American asthmatics need inhalers that work? I guess the ALA is more interested in promoting a political agenda than helping people with lung [...]
