Best I can do is microplastics in your blood.

For that, people would need to stop voting for neoliberals first.

TIL. I hadn't looked up that word before, just assumed it meant 'new liberal' in the USA liberal vs conservative sense, when really it seems to mean virtually the opposite of what liberal means here.

Not really. The trick in the US system is that both parties are neoliberal, so there actually isn't a choice. They just differ in social aspects (neoliberalism is purely about economy).

The opposite of a neoliberal within a democratic framework would more or less be a social democrat (like Bernie Sanders).
