Beijing, We Have a Problem

"The world's greatest distance runner, Haile Gebrselassie of Ethiopia, has decided not to run the marathon event because the city's pollution irritates his breathing."Anybody else find this story incredibly disturbing?? If the air quality is that bad, why aren't emissions restrictions in place as a general rule? Why does the government force the people who live there to tolerate this? I guess once you're hooked on money it's pretty hard to quit...
