Is DuPont create an entire spin-off to duck out of its legal liabilities?
It looks that way.
The chemicals business is a nasty one. Literally. There are all kinds of malicious substances.

Well, for decades DuPont hid the dangers of this chemical and disposed of it in a manner that was absolutely reckless.
