[Pen-l] RE: Marxist Pres. Nationalize petrochemical companies?

Thank you very much.  I'm very frustrated with the inability to get a single print review of the book, except for a very nice one that Seth wrote for a Sacramento weekly.  Enough of the kvetch:

 

Besides nationalizing Dow, I would make sure that the management would develop the best information possible about the dangers inherent in its products and take into account the environmental costs of both use and production of its products.  I would have managers develop less disruptive substitutes.

 

Dow, I understand, has been among the better companies in finding ways to recycle its waste products to profitable uses.  I would have been due even more.
