The Value of Human Life

Following the Bhopal disaster in India, Union Carbide coughed up about $31,000 for every person killed by the fumes from their plant:

How much money have defendants been forced to pay for the wrongful death of a US citizen? It's a heck of a lot more that $31,000 !!!

Why are the lives of Indian citizens worth less than our lives?

And why has the US government refused to honor the arrest warrants for Union Carbide executives?

Answer: Racism, pure and simple.
