And then you remember that the richest person in australia is a woman.... and solely because she inherited all that money from her father.... whos entire fortune was made by....
mining blue asbestos.
the company was sued over a decade ago and lost and was ordered to pump tens of millions into a workers fund for people who have contracted mesothelioma. You know how much money Gina Rinehart put into that fund as per the order? a grand total of $0. the amount of compensation paid out to families or sufferers of mesothelioma? $0. They havent even been 'fighting' it per se, they said from day one they wouldnt pay it, and ever since every time they get dragged to court the slap an injunction on it and no one says a fucking thing.
