As far as I’m concerned, Americans were better drivers when cars were less safe. A little professionalism was required to remain alive.

” As far as I’m concerned, Americans were better drivers when cars were less safe. “

I noticed, years ago, that there have been many more reports of wide-spread food-related illnesses since the do-gooders launched their ‘safety at any price’ campaign...

My theory is that ‘safe’ foods have degraded our natural and acquired immunity to these pathogens, so that when they do sneak through the system (as they inevitably will), the result is, instead of a couple of days of discomfort, life-threatening...

Unintended consequences are a beyotch. ain’t they?? ;)
