Default How to poison Americans and get away with it

http://www.spiegel.de/international/...589674,00.html

Quote:
It feels like Stalin-era Russia, like the administration set themselves up to decide what's allowable science and what isn't," says a high-ranking staff scientist at the EPA, who spoke on condition of anonymity. "Until the recent economic crash, this has been such an anti-regulatory administration. One of the ways to undermine regulations is to undermine the science behind them. It's absolutely shocking what's going on."
Public health officials say this attempt to derail the scientific evaluation of toxins is one of the most damning legacies of the Bush administration. In late September, the Government Accountability Office issued a scathing critique of the EPA's new toxic-assessment procedures. It concluded that the secretive procedures compromise scientific credibility and sacrifice the public's trust in government. Despite such hefty criticism, public officials fear that because the new procedures have been instituted at the EPA so far below the public radar, their harmful impact will survive long after Bush leaves office. It will take a bold and expedient move by Barack Obama or the next Congress to curtail the influence of the Pentagon and other government agencies on the EPA.
Hallelujah.

Hello,
you may not yet have heard it, but calling a spade a spade is unpatriotic.
You've got to say yes to government decisions. Always.
You know our Nazi ancestors only supported the govenment because it would have been unpatriotic not to do so.
Greetings,
Catfish

P.S. What is "SBP"

If you want to poison Americans and get away with it, just deep fry something deadly and sell it as fast food.
