it's designed, from what i can see, to make it more safe because it's very targeted to inside the walls. not everything is done to make money, but i understand your concern with the problems we have today with govt. and big corps.

no, in a capitalistic society, everything is done so that someone can make money.
capitalism = CAPITALizing over someone elses resources ($CAPITAL$)
why aren't all the 3rd world countries in africa being fed, housed, medicated, and taken care of? because they don't have capital to use.
and what little capital there is in africa (oil, precious gems) : africans arent seeing a CENT of it, because they are being capitalized upon. (except of course in the case of Libya, and we all know what happened to Gadaffi...)edit on 19-7-2012 by waterplants because: (no reason given)

then make your way to a pet store and chug a few vials of Frontline or Advantix insecticides for dogs & cats, by all means.
ever heard of GMOs? have you been living under a idiotic rock?
they're just plants with pesticides built into their DNA. ever wonder what the fuss is about? i guess you haven't done much research.
research is your friend.

most pesticides are not carcinogenic today, they do not diffuse into the water table do not bio-magnify and have a limited life span, all of which are a good thing. do some research instead of spewing idiotic rhetoric.

*robot voice* "Contrary to your claims, pesticides and their relationship to humans is exactly the premise of this thread.Your posts seem to indicate that you have no intelligent rebuttal to the truths of pesticide interaction with the human organism. Thus you are evading further comment as to not show further ignorance." *end robot voice*
/end straw?

DDT was never safely contained anywhere, DDT is a Persistent Organic Pollutant and very highly persistent in the environment. It has a reported half life of between 2-15 years and is immobile in most soils. Its half life is 56 days in lake water and approximately 28 days in river water. Routes of loss and degradation include runoff, volatilization, photolysis and biodegradation (aerobic and anaerobic).
neither was Chlordane for that matter.
