2000,000 Americans Put To Death for the Sin of Breathing Polluted Air

In a slightly outdated study using 2005 body counts, MIT informs us of the enormous carnage caused by air pollution that surrounds freedom loving Americans.
Yes, America, the home of the freest corpses in the world.
Yes, America, where cars expensive, and life is cheap.
Meanwhile, and even as the US Congress and President Obama, and the NSA et al, work to ensure the safety of all Americans -- here's some numbers you don't need a Bluffdale or Pentagon to decipher.
 

Road traffic is the biggest cause of air pollution early deaths. 53,000 Americans a year die too soon because of emissions from road vehicles. The second most important source of killer emissions was power generation. Those pollutants kill around 52,000 people a year. Air pollution deaths from rail transportation appeared to be relatively trivial. However, emissions from marine transportation hit California with its long coastline relatively hard, resulting in an estimated 3,500 early deaths. California is the hardest-hit state. There are 21,000 early deaths there a year from emissions. However, it’s the east coast city of Baltimore, Maryland that is the hardest-hit city. 130 out of every 100,000 residents will die each year as a result of air poluttion.

 Baltimore, Maryland -- a city located next to Washington, DC. the nation's capital where the seat of government allows the deaths of so many of its own citizens, that's obscene.
