I find myself uncomfortably advocating repeal of a regulation and eliminating govt. enforcement of a number of consumer protection regulations -- here's how it's happened.
Schools across the country are loaded with compounds known to cause major skin irritations and hair loss, and we still aren't aware of their full effects.
Our regulatory system works according to a 'guilty until proven innocent' logic, where new chemicals are available and safe, until the day we realize they aren't.
