6,000 babies sickened
The thing I read is an article in the New York Times about how 6,000 babies were sickened by bad baby formula. I think that it is terrible that a company would be selfish enough to not care to check for illegal chemicals in something that is bieng fed to babies. I feel for those families that are forced to buy this because their income is not high enough, and I am sad that there is a downward spiral attached to bieng poorer, because you are forced to buy low quality things. It genuinely shocked me that over 6,000 babies were infected, and who knows how many will come after that?

Most of these posts intrigue me because all of this talk about the fact that our economy is heading towards a big drop. Companies are being selfish to put illegal chemicals in their formula because they are cheaper, however because of the economic problem so far, more of these illegal events are evident because it is the best way to gain more profits. As for the reasons why families with low income buy these cheap formulas also plays an important role in our troubled economy.
This is an interesting topic to touch on and i can believe that 6000 babies were infected by poisenious formulas. This happens a lot during industrial revolutions as it happened during our own revolution. As china expirences an increase in industry and trade problems like these will become more common. Even though there is a logical explanation why this is happening it does not mean that it is right or moral.
