On Human Tests Subjects for Pesticides

Excerpt from EPA Assistant Administrator: 

""We have looked at some recent human studies that have been submitted to the agency," Johnson said. "From a scientific standpoint, the human studies did not make a difference in our ultimate regulatory decision, so we did not even look at the ethics or ethical issues associated with those studies."

(Editor's Note:  If something is inherently wrong... it shouldn't matter whether is was "useful" or not.  So much for morality, ethics and common sense in government.)
