We currently have inspection of legal crops for certain fungi and molds, alluding to the idea that without inspection- the mold might get into the food source... A person growing an illegal drug crop, it would seem, would be less likely to "inspect" their crop and might indeed&amp;nbsp;cover the problem and send it on to be illegally sold and used by someone. Then, the question would be what would happen once the fungi is in the human body... I wish the same amount of time and effort would be spent on developing programs to reduce pesticide use and favor the natural "pest" remedies. &lt;img src="http://blogs.mercola.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=88646" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item><item><title>re: A Herbicide So Deadly No Nation Will Allow America to Test It</title><link>http://blogs.mercola.com/sites/vitalvotes/archive/2007/01/24/A-Herbicide-So-Deadly-No-Nation-Will-Allow-America-to-Test-It.aspx#88645</link><pubDate>Wed, 24 Jan 2007 23:50:18 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">24451277-a5aa-4add-96dc-64081bfd86fa:88645</guid><dc:creator>Russ Bianchi</dc:creator><description>&lt;P&gt;Read Dr. Marcia Angell's book entitled&amp;nbsp;What The Pharmaceutical Companies Do Not Want You To Know... &lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;The threshold to get a drug approved for sale, per FDA,&amp;nbsp;is almost as low in efficacy in a test population, irrespective of bad side effects, as the failure mentioned here, in some, or many cases.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Why do you think we are seeing so many additional warnings, or recalls, or ad (TV, Radio or Print) disclaimers, or out right removal of prescription drugs from the market place?&amp;nbsp; It's pandemic, and the whole system is profit, not preventitive, or cure, driven.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;img src="http://blogs.mercola.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=88645" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item><item><title>re: A Herbicide So Deadly No Nation Will Allow America to Test It</title><link>http://blogs.mercola.com/sites/vitalvotes/archive/2007/01/24/A-Herbicide-So-Deadly-No-Nation-Will-Allow-America-to-Test-It.aspx#88643</link><pubDate>Wed, 24 Jan 2007 20:27:01 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">24451277-a5aa-4add-96dc-64081bfd86fa:88643</guid><dc:creator>mmc88121</dc:creator><description>&lt;P&gt;Are those lawmakers on the payroll of the company that developed the mycoherbicide?&amp;nbsp; Something that fails 60-70% of the time should not even be considered.&amp;nbsp; If you voted for these people please don't next election&lt;/P&gt;
