Paigen brings to light the denial of bureaucrats to admit health damage to residents of the Love Canal. Despite scientific studies and community's complaints, the state postponed measures and acted unethically towards the issue. Employers were demoted, transfered and harassed for addressing the health concern of residents of Love Canal. State officials manipulated health data and refused to release health facts to the public or scientists because this will entail the justification of other wrongly disposed hazardous waste across the country and thus, more money need to be spent.
