White Face

The reality for good art is coming to terms with the act life is cheap. Here a worker inhales the fine stone power his skill saw makes. It works like black lungs. The particles het in your lungs and like many micro razors cut your lungs creating scar tissue. In time the pain becomes overwhelming, Lots of blood and you die. Without a face mask life is shorter than he knows. Heavy smoking and beetle nut to jew on numbs the are some. This allows for extended opportunities to work and prepare your family for the inevitable.

    A sad tale. The people in poverty are stuck in a cycle they can't escape from. Even here in the states. I just read an article about the auto works in the south who work for the sub-contractors making parts and the dangerous conditions and demands place on them to make quota. Many places are dangerous and people are losing fingers, limbs and their lives.

    A malicious disease caused by the stone dust! In our oh so modern world, one should think that there should be sufficient protection for every person who carries out work that is harmful to health.
    But I also know that some people have them, but they are not used because the protective clothing is a hindrance at work, they say.
    Greetings Dagi
