Chemical companies are now being required to prove that their products are safe before releasing them for commercial use in Europe. Why not in the USA?

The inclusion of phthalates, industrial chemicals used as solvents, is banned in deodorants, hair sprays, nail polishes and perfumes in European Union countries. Why not in the USA?

Direct marketing of prescription drugs to consumers is banned in almost every Western country. Why not in the USA?

Why are Americans not being protected? Ask the politicians in Washington D.C.
