Capitalist greed kills six poultry workers in Georgia

Atlanta, Ga.
Jan. 31 Prior to Jan. 28, most of us were likely unaware of the death-rendering results of exposure to liquid nitrogen, including the low-wage workers at Foundation Food Group in Gainesville, Ga. It is used in food processing plants across the country to rapidly freeze products for shipping.
People gather on Jan. 30 for a vigil outside the plant in Gainesville, Ga., where six workers were killed in a liquid nitrogen leak.
Kept at −320° F, the odorless, colorless vapor is released in a confined space to flash freeze whatever it touches. In sufficient quantities, it can reduce the amount of oxygen in the air and cause asphyxiation.
