Pristine leaks
Sandy Tiffin
DAVID LLEWELLYN’S comment that the Meander Dam is supposed to leak would be the height of doublespeak, if it were not for Lennon’s remark in the latest Tas Region that the dam catchment is “pristine”.!
This is the catchment which has 15,000 hectares of the Central Plateau eroded down to bedrock, waiting for another sudden rainfall event like the one that caused the landslip ten years ago to continue the landslips which are still active. This is where a net has been put up in the dam to stop logs blocking the dam outlet as the unstable catchment erodes and brings down timber debris as well as silt and rocks, apparently also planned for, according to Llewellyn on ABC radio last Thursday (7/3/08).
One can only assume that they are therefore deliberately poisoning the population, as the forestry plantations in the Hunstsman Valley surrounding the actual dam, are still being sprayed with atrazine. This is the atrazine whose formulation uses wetting agents containing the fire retardent chemical PCBEs found in Tassie Devils, as David Obendorf’s recent article shows, and assuredly already exists in humans.
The dam was subsidised by the taxpayer, although contravening the COAG Competition Policy, by claiming it would improve the township water supplies downstream. As they are continuing to poison the catchment with atrazine although it has been known to be an endocrine disruptor in alligators and frogs for years now, this would indicate that the poisoning must also be part of the plan.
Remember the so-called hospital crisis? This is only capitalism being too successful. The sickness industry is not coping with the demand created for them by governments who are far too anxious to help their corporate friends make a buck at the public’s expense.
It is well known there is no money in health and happiness, so ignoring major health issues such as the 5000 chemicals we are regularly exposed to is normal. As many chemicals particularly affect the reproductive system, official blather on breast, cervical and prostate cancers for example, is designed to continue to provide industry fodder. “Consume, be silent and die expensively”, then the high priests of sickness will care for you and make you feel you are worth something.
Deloraine is now also receiving fluoridated water, which might explain why no-one is getting upset about being poisoned. This neurotoxin was first used under the Nazis, as it was shown to dull people’s minds. It is the only explanation for mass medication when a fluorided toothpaste dental care program in schools would answer dentists’ claims, even if they were true.
But then on an island where the corrupt lead the stupid and lazy, it doesn’t take much to do your worst.
