[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] We are supposed to accept these standards and all the testing because, why? Because we don't have data that they are not good? So therefore they must be good? [b]The FDA let thalidomide be sold with the same argument. They waited until the damage was done to ban it. [/b]We have canaries in the coal mines and people want to wait for them to start dying (and they are--- as evidenced by teachers quitting). What kind of "evidence" would convince you? Do you believe that teachers are lying about all of this? [/quote] Your history of thalidomide and the FDA is factually incorrect. The FDA never licensed or approved thalidomide, and fewer than 100 babies affected by thalidomide were born in the US. http://guides.main.library.emory.edu/c.php?g=50422&p=325039[/quote]
