The kind of justice I believe in does not give “them that’s got” an uninterrupted pipeline to keep profiting from pollution. That’s granting the workers who pocketed great salaries and benefits, while filling our air and water with toxic waste, a free pass from taking any responsibility for their actions. That ain’t justice.
