These are retrofitted CAMPING trailers. They are NOT built to be lived in full time. They are recreational vehicles (RV's) The fumes are normal...living in the trailer until you get sick is NOT normal. The fumes will disappear if you put a pan of ammonia out on the countertop and leave it sit overnight with the windows and doors closed but you shouldn't remain in the camper with the ammonia either.

Okay, now we have another government lawsuit in the works. Watch this one. More ways to screw Uncle Sam from the land of the levees. Edwards must be working his magic down there. All slip and fall candidates know how to milk the system. Why, hey, didn't I tell you socialized medicine would lead to government euthanasia? Well.

The free market will determine if the company that made these trailers will continue under its current name.

The manufacturer must declare bankruptcy and divest then reinvest diversely into the burgeoning global markets. This is something the public sector cannot do.

Big government looks stupid here as it should. If this had been a private sector endeavor there would be no one to blame but a company that no longer exists that would then have divested and reinvested it's assets under new global corporations. A much more efficient method of preserving capital.

What needs to happen is a world court and world system of laws protecting large concentrations private capital to create a new world order.
