abOVE they WORK FOR US!! BELOW YOU GOTTA BE KIDDING ME !!

DID YOU REALLY THINK THEY ARE THERE TO PROTECT YOU?:
FDA Draft Report Urges Consumption of Fish, Despite Mercury Contamination -- The Food and Drug Administration is urging the government to amend its advisory that women and children should limit how much fish they eat, saying that the benefits of seafood outweigh the health risks and that most people should eat more fish, even if it contains mercury. The FDA's recommendations have alarmed scientists at the Environmental Protection Agency, who in internal memos criticized them as "scientifically flawed and inadequate" and said they fell short of the "scientific rigor routinely demonstrated by EPA."
World Health Organization Sets Outlandish "Safe" Level for Melamine Consumption -- Following the U.S. Food and Drug Administration's setting of a "safe" level of melamine in foods, the World Health Organization (WHO) has announced its own safety level of 0.2 mg per kilogram of body weight per day... That's a lot of melamine. It's almost like a nutritional supplement dose. And the scary part about all this is that neither the WHO nor the FDA has any science whatsoever to back up this "safe" consumption guideline.
