Right, cause nobody knew about the dangers of lead paint before those actual lead paint toys hit the market. So by your logic, what DID happen, would never happen, cause you would have to be insane to put lead paint in a toy, when we have known for YEARS that lead paint is dangerous, especsially to young children. You would have to be insane to endanger your business that way. Unless, of course, you knew that all regulation was a sham and that you could spend a good few years making money and then all you had to do was just fold up this shop and either walk away or begin again a few years later.

Don't get me wrong, I am not opposed to government bringing rationality to either side, but I am opposed to government busily protecting the power and priviledge of the corporations while at the same time refusing, "because markets are self regulating", to protect the interests of the public.
