This event seems to highlight an issue that will be a growing concern for this country and especially Texas.
In the age of governmental downsizing and diminishing oversight and regulation, it's left up to the corporate interests to protect the public/consumers.
The same corporate interests that gave you the tobacco industry coverup of the effects of smoking, mining companies making swaths of inhabited land uninhabitable, BP and the effects of the Deepwater Horizon spill and cleanup on the gulf, Boeing and the 737 Max, the NFL and its squelching of studies and research showing a link between football and CTE and 23042342389234 other real world examples where the profit motive outweighed ethics, morality and public safety.
I would be surprised if once the government is pruned to an acceptable level of non-existence, tort law isn't reformed to further absolve corporate interests from any responsibility to public safety. You will need to do your due diligence on everything. There will be no safety nets, if there ever were.
We are reforming government to be one of, by and for the corporations.
