Milton, Areopagitica

Except he had found the
standing sea-rock that even this last

science backs beef ban
A European Union spokeswoman says it can prove that growth promoting hormones used by cattle farmers in some countries can cause cancer and should therefore be banned.
She said the evidence is being shared with the US.

Ω{How about the childishly simplistic hypothesis that all those unregulated 'growth-promoting hormones' being used by the US are in fact PROMOTING GROWTH? I've come across more than one reference online to 'land whales'� a seriously offensive phrase. Every time I take my aged mother for a drive about the town I have to stop her from constantly commenting how fat the people are.
How about aside from the collateral damage of diabetes and cancer, how about that these untried chemicals continue to 'promote growth' on up the food chain? And that's at least partially why Americans are so obese now?}
