Biologist here, it gives you adhd (60% chance), autism, and cerebellar Hypodysplasia (cant remember the incidence rate for these last two, but want to say CH is 8%). Child abuses causes conservativism lol, but lead causes developmental defects starting as early as the embryo.

To believe what current US conservatives are claiming now, you have to be developmentally defective at this point.
Chicago proves you wrong. Chicago mandated lead pipes long after everyone else was phasing it out. They have high levels of violence now, often believed in part because of that lead, and they are known as a place where liberals have been in control for forever.
Chicago is not even in the top 25 most dangerous cities.
