the anti-intellectual ignorance on this issue is stunning! For some though, it's about money and profit being more important than millions of lives. It's why I despise the plutocracy. They put their own personal wealth above everyone and everything else. That in and of itself is a threat to lives here and abroad. It SHOULD be criminally-negligent.
