[MD] What "moral revolution" is called for by the MOQ?

Don't know about auto accidents but deaths from malaria due to 
banning of DTD in undeveloped countries can be laid right at the feel 
of environmental "liberalism."

According to Wikipedia, "As of 2006, DDT continues to be used in 
other (primarily tropical) countries where mosquito-borne malaria and 
typhus are serious health problems. Use of DDT in public health to 
control mosquitoes is primarily done inside buildings and through 
inclusion in household products and selective spraying; this greatly 
reduces environmental damage compared to the earlier widespread use 
of DDT in agriculture." Seems to me a good compromise.

Also from Wikipedia, "In the summer of 1972, Ruckelshaus announced a 
ban on virtually all uses of DDT in the U.S., where it was classified 
as an EPA Toxicity Class II substance." Wasn't Richard Nixon the 
president in 1972? Doesn't the President appoint the head of the EPA? 
Weren't the Republicans in power until 1977?

For a more historically balanced account of why and how DDT came to 
be banned in the US (part of which had to do with a country still 
gripping with the Republican authorizing of of Agent Orange use in 
Vietnam... conservative-sponsored chemical warfare left a bad taste 
in many mouths (pun intended)), see the Wikipedia article.
