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.
Yes. Selling toys with lead based paint is against the law. It is against the law because we NOW know of the health effects in ingesting lead.

I fail to see the complaint on this issue.

You seem to be declaring yourself, or perhaps the regulators, clairvoyant or all knowledgable in that all their public pronouncements are infallable. .
It is not self regulating on any real level.
