Oh come now, don't try to be logical.. don't you realize this is a liberty issue!! Corps should be free to sell deadly and dangerous things to the public.. who's the government to say that can't?

Seriously, its a simple public health issue. When hydrogenated oils were introduced no one knew the dangers, if they had, they likely would never have been allowed to go to market. Now the dangers are known and policy will correctly change.

There was a time Coca Cola actually had Cocaine in it too.. history is full of examples of products being outlawed after safety or other issues are found... But don't try to tell that to some folks... its an infringement on their life worthy of taking up arms....

Something tells me that the owners and managers of these corporations do not eat the crap they produce.
