The EPA controls a large part of the funding, and therefore how the research is conducted, he says. Since the government is interested in saving lives, the research it funds in this area is almost always to study a toxin's lethal effect, as opposed to its beneficial side, so the research is not generated.

It seems we're not the only ones who have been saying the same thing for quite some time!!!

"The EPA does not want the American people to become cognizant of good environmental news, or potential savings in environmental cleanup, because in part they view the agency as a jobs program," It isn't just the EPA, it's all government agencies!

It appears that the dose may make more than the poison.

It's just possible it could keep you healthier.

Oh yes! They sure know how to spin it. They don't want to tell the truth for fear of losing their jobs and/or funding. Just like the Anti-Tobacco Coalitions.

You got it, Gabz!

What a total waste of tax payers money!

It do sound familiar. Maybe we need a grant to do research. They send us a barrel of money. We sit on it for a while. Then publish what we already know and spend the money.
