According to an article I read recently in 
a health magazine, apparently apples are 
sprayed with insecticides 17 times, and 
apparently butter retains much of the 
junk, hormones, insecticides and whatever 
that cows ingest in their food and are 
injected with. And a while back I watched 
a documentary about the heavy use of 
insecticides in potato farming. And of 
course all that's just part of the story.
So maybe if another three or four hundred 
million people in north america die each 
year from cancers, then something might be 
done about such abuses, maybe, if we're 
lucky, even though that might cost the 
drug companies billions or trillions ...

Speculatively,
