5. Let's not forget all those who died in work-related accidents
because the government didn't have regulations on health and safety .(RIP, great-great grandpa James, who was killed in a coal mining accident)

I ended up getting chewed out by my mother for "causing a scene." i was like, "mom, I'm not trying to attack you, it just aggravates me that people spread lies about the War in order to make it seem peachy keen." She shut up after that. parents....
