You are what you eat and drink.
Why everybody is now worrying about bottled water in the sun and then go down to mc donalds or burger king for a meal when the cows they were made from are milking cows to drugged up and tired to even live is beyond me.
So my question is:
Why is the government, FDA and Monsato slowly killing everybody with their toxic food.
And why are people to stupid to see it.

I want to laugh at a previous comment about life expectancy. You, questioner, are completely right in your asking.
The upcoming generations are expected to not live as long as the current ones. Eek. Kind of does sound like life expectancy is going down. Fast-food is flourishing at the same time. Oh, and let's not forget our wonderful scientific medicines that have "improved" our lives in recent years. But we're still expected to live a shorter lifespan than our parents!
We are being fed what the media tells us to buy into. We're told to worry a lot about bottled water in the sun. We're not told to stop buying McDonald's food (otherwise why are there so many commercials being slammed at you on T.V., right?).
Obesity is a problem! Instead of drinking a large milkshake just drink a medium one! Not a solution. HELLO! Stop making it if you care about us. Stop selling it to us on T.V. commercials and billboards.
I answered a recent question about fluoride and the answer is the same here.
Money.
If you make a person sick by selling them X then you can make them well by selling them Y. You make double the profit if you would have just sold them something good. Healthy people don't buy as much junk, medications, and assisted living things.
Vegetarians? Live longer! Who would have thought, right?! The scary fact is that they aren't the healthiest people either because we're pouring pesticides and flavor enhancers on our fruits and vegetables too. They're just healthier than meat eaters because they ingest less of the bad stuff by eating no meat. If we didn't have such harmful chemicals and we used our science to seriously just improve our lives then...I couldn't image how long we could possibly live. Possibly well past 100 on average.
Ok...example...
Let's say...(please do note the made up numbers for ease of understanding)
A cow costs $100 to raise until it's time to kill it for meat. An average cow weighs 100lbs. When you sell a cow you make $200.
If you can inject something into a cow for $20 that will cause it to be, on average, 200lbs then you just made a huge profit. You just made a $120 cow investment into a $400 sell.
See? Money. Big bucks without extra work.
Now, we know that things are not so great. The media has to throw something at us to keep us occupied on one bad thing. That way we won't go fishing around for other things to complain about. Oh, Paris Hilton did this, that, and the other this week. Lindsey Lohan is in jail again. Racism is getting worse, better, or is stable. Whatever it is, they have to throw us something.
Bottled water. Boom. There's something to be afraid of.
We start to overlook things.
I have a real-life experience of this. Remember the huge peanut butter recall? Did you know that it the exact same time that they found mercury in high fructose corn syrup? Seriously. It was announced the same exact week but it was overshadowed because the media wanted to overlook that. So, for awhile they focused on peanut butter. They knew that wouldn't last though so they set us up to focus on the next subject--Mercury contamination. I saw it with my own eyes. Now we're worried about mercury in soda but we weren't when it was first announced. Not at all. What was that? 2 years ago now?! Please!
So, it's just a chain. Something to keep us occupied while they sweep more things under the rug so they can make more money. Yeah. I sound insane now so I'll shush.

Last I checked, life expectancy has gone up in the United States over the last 50 years.

It's all about moderation. It's okay to have the occasional cheeseburger, but you're going to die at 40 if you eat five a day.
I would like to know what 'toxic food' the FDA is allowing. Last I checked, things under their jurisdiction were heavily regulated.

Bottled water in the sun is a concern, because a carcinogenic chemical leaches into the water from the plastic bottles when they are heated; not a predicted effect. Those 'drugged up' cows? It's growth hormones to make them meatier (and thus more efficient use of resources) and antibiotics to keep them from becoming severely ill or growing parasites. I've seen cow farms, and they all seemed pretty happy. Farmers take care of their stock.
Yes, ground beef is often made of lower quality beef than say, steak. If you don't like it, don't eat it, and leave the rest of us to our delicious burgers rather than insulting us all and calling us stupid I'll be polite enough to not mention the e. coli bacteria present on your organic lettuce :P
Don't rely on conspiracy websites and PETA to get your information! It's all one-sided.
