2. If Prop 112 had passed, we would have been killing jobs instead of people.

The oil industry and all its shareholders are thankful we didn't put capitalism at risk by our concerns for human life and the environment. Besides, people and their pets get cancer and die slowly, it's not like they die right away. There's plenty of time to build those legal wells and reap the rewards out from under everyone living there. Plausible deniability will keep investments safe for shareholders long enough that they may securely live out their lives far away from the wells. If there are any problems, you can be assured that other people's children will deal with them. Investors got theirs and that's what counts in capitalist America. Lucky us.
