I'd rather live next to a leaky paper plant than a teflon plant any day.

I wouldn't. The numerous miscarriages that my grandmother had while living in a mill town, and the cancer diagnoses that followed family who worked at the mill taught me to stay upstream of mill towns.
I think it's clear that you're not familiar with how often paper mills have poisoned the nearby populations.
Visit Int'l Falls, MN. They have a paper mill and then there's another one on the other side of the river in Canada. It's foul
I'd rather live next to neither. Paper plants stink.
Absolutely not. Paper mills are fucking nightmares.
