The hard part of lead is the lack of knowledge and ignoring of proven science - proof being people still smoke cigarettes.

And don't forget those without a moral compass in which case you end up with situations like this one we have locally:




That $72 million tab falls on all of us as Congress long ago decided that SuperFund being funded by a user/producer tax on companies that make and deal with hazmats would be a terrible burden on those poor companies.  Another fine example of privatizing gains and  having the taxpayers pick up the losses https://www.washingtonpost.com/national/taxpayer-dollars-fund-most-oversight-and-cleanup-costs-at-superfund-sites/2017/09/20/aedcd426-8209-11e7-902a-2a9f2d808496_story.html

And this is just one of 113 Superfund sites in New Jersey.  With 1,300 nationwide. The math is staggering.
