Re: Has China Declared War Against America?

In a culture where only one child
per family is tolerated, without paving
the pockets of corrupt officials, I
doubt that they would poison a full
generation by testing a contaminated
product on their own children. In
China, thousands of infants are sick
and they have had deaths.

I think it is just another sign of the
erosion of the safeguards most of us take
for granted are in place. Especially
when global companies mix ingredients from
different countries of origin, it is very
difficult to know where our foods and our
medicines or supplements come from when
they contain more than one ingredient.

Perhaps there is no WILL to have oversight.
Humans are becoming faceless to each other
in the market place. There is lots of room
for problems and issues to be buried by those
unwilling to pay and work to do the right
thing. We have learned over time that NEW &
IMPROVED often isn't. Time will tell if
there is really a "war" against us. We *are*
the consumers of the products they make and
so in a sense it has become more symbiotic
financially to hold us up so we can hold them
up too.

It can be a lot better. People need to stay
vigilant however and speak when they can to
demand more accountability. Obviously however,
one example which has not worked is Aspartame.
Power lobbies have successfully kept this toxic
product on the market in the name of profit.
It was greed that put it on the shelves and
greed which keeps it there.

How to rid a man's soul of greed...now there
is a question that begs answers...
