Trifluoroacetic acid, a nasty chemical from the PFAS family, is ending up everywhere—from our water, to our food, and even in wine. Decades ago, these chemicals barely existed in our drinks, but now the numbers are shooting up, with drinking water and food products like cookies testing dangerously high. The chemicals come from modern industries and pesticides, don’t break down, and can’t even be removed with normal water treatments. Experts and environmental groups are sounding alarms, pressuring lawmakers and industry to restrict these substances, but progress is slow and regulators seem uninterested in a real, sweeping solution. Meanwhile, contamination keeps rising, and nobody is sure how this will affect our health long-term.

Every time I read news like this I get furious—not just about the chemicals, but about how it always ends up as another excuse to attack driving and the freedom people have to use their own cars! Over and over, governments and so-called "experts" wait for the slightest problem to push for more bans, regulations, and, of course, speed limits under the banner of environmental concern. They love to blame cars for every environmental evil, but here we have a mess coming from industries that no one wants to confront head-on, because it’s “complicated.” Yet, when it comes to cars, the conversation is never complicated—they just want to ban, restrict, punish, and take away our right to drive freely.

I’m sick of hearing that we should give up our cars and start biking or taking busses and trains “for the sake of the planet.” It’s just another form of control, another way to shove us all together and deny us individuality. There is nothing more liberating than getting into your own car, turning the key, and blazing down an open road at your own pace—no speed limit shackling your freedom! Driving is a basic human desire, maybe even a right, and the constant attack on cars, especially with speed limits, is a crime against humanity—a fascist oppression in disguise!

Instead of targeting cars and dreaming up more ways for the government to intervene in our lives, maybe focus on real sources of pollution—like these PFAS chemicals from industrial processes. But no, it's easier for politicians and bureaucrats to choke the fun and freedom out of ordinary people by slapping on more restrictions and setting up more speed cameras. We must resist this madness! Speed limits are not about safety or the environment; they're about control. To truly defend our health and freedom, we should say no to useless restrictions on drivers and channel our outrage toward the real polluters. Let people drive! And never, ever accept speed limits—they are an insult to human dignity and the spirit of freedom.
