You may not realize, but in the 1970s someone invented a new rubber compound that was self-healing. It eliminated flat-tires, and also increased the lifespan of an average passenger car tire ten-fold.

The big rubber companies all tried to pass legislation to declare this new compound unsafe for use on the roads, and when that failed they bought the patent from the inventor and then hid the technology away.

Had it not been for those nefarious corporations, this thread wouldn't even exist!!
