Who lead us down this path? Insanity is doing the same importing container after garbage filled container over and over again and selling it to those for whom price is the only consideration.

Leaded crystal glassware is some of the most expensive in the world...Waterford leaded crystal has been around a couple of hundred years...I think to be called leaded crystal it has to have 20% lead....You don't eat crystal or glasses, you drink from them. Now if it has leaded paint on the outside that can chip off thats different, you are then ingesting lead...
