Well, well. What do we have here? We have a Tyrannical government doing experiments on humans from children to the elderly while misleading them about the potential risks all to push the Climate Change agenda. This is SICK! This is what oppressive governments do!

The Environmental Protection Agency has been conducting dangerous experiments on humans over the past few years in order to justify more onerous clean air regulations.
The agency conducted tests on people with health issues and the elderly, exposing them to high levels of potentially lethal pollutants, without disclosing the risks of cancer and death, according to a newly released government report.
These experiments exposed people, including those with asthma and heart problems, to dangerously high levels of toxic pollutants, including diesel fumes, reads a EPA inspector general report obtained by The Daily Caller News Foundation. The EPA also exposed people with health issues to levels of pollutants up to 50 times greater than the agency says is safe for humans.
The EPA conducted five experiments in 2010 and 2011 to look at the health effects of particulate matter, or PM, and diesel exhaust on humans. The IG’s report found that the EPA did get consent forms from 81 people in five studies. But the IG also found that “exposure risks were not always consistently represented.”
“Further, the EPA did not include information on long-term cancer risks in its diesel exhaust studies’ consent forms,” the IG’s report noted. “An EPA manager considered these long-term risks minimal for short-term study exposures” but “human subjects were not informed of this risk in the consent form.”
According to the IG’s report, “only one of five studies’ consent forms provided the subject with information on the upper range of the pollutant” they would be exposed to, but even more alarming is that only “two of five alerted study subjects to the risk of death for older individuals with cardiovascular disease.”

Hey, if Obama makes any lampshades out of human skin, get back to us. I want one for my den.
So you are ok with this? If you are you are one sick individual. I bet you howled at the moon when scientists were doing MEDICAL testing on Monkeys though. People? Who cares right?
81 people were exposed to diesel fumes and particulates equivlent to standing next to a truck in the streets for 2 hours.
So it's fine that people are exposed to this out and about, but in a lab it's OMG THE TERRIBLE EPA?
You didn't read the report as usual. They exposed them to 50 times the dose that the EPA thought was extremely dangerous and didn't let them know they were going that high. They also hid the long term health impacts from the subjects. It is SICKENING that you authoritarians are ok with this. It says a TON about who you people really are. EVIL!
Ah guess who wants these tests done? It isn't Obama or the liberals. It's the conservatives who want companies to be allowed to pollute more.
Also this type of testing has been going on for over a hundred years. Tens of millions of Americans were exposed to radiation from atom bomb tests for example.
We can also blame Reagan, Bush 1 and Bush 2.
"The EPA has been conducting controlled exposure studies for about 40 years. In controlled exposure studies, human subjects are intentionally exposed to pollutants under controlled conditions." http://www.scribd.com/doc/215909101/...Study-Subjects

He is an Obamabot. His hero can do no wrong. He sits breathlessly waiting for his idol to come on TV so he can hear how well-spoken and see how clean his hero looks. To him, that is a bigger high than dope can bring.

All the folks involved in these tests were volunteers. All were fully briefed on the risks and objectives of the experiments. All were compensated.
The EPA did nothing wrong or unethical here. And by the way... they've been doing these sorts of tests since the 1970s (Obama was 9 years old). So, "Obama's Agenda" can have little to do with them.
