Congress would like to restore at least part of the Consumer Product Safety Division, which used to do such a good job of keeping unsafe products off American shelves.
Unfortunately, CPSC chair Nancy Nord is opposed to Congress giving her a bigger budget, more staff and more enforcement powers. God forbid she should be invited to actually do her stinkin' job!

[The 2007 Supplement to The Meaning of Liff defines "nord" as "v., p.t.: To have deliberately left a task undone. Contraction of 'ignored'."]

I'm opposed to more of my money being given to such people as well. I would prefer to keep unsafe products out of my hands by choosing not to buy them. Of course, this does allow those who have different values than I have to buy such products, but I guess they have as much right to their life as I have to mine. Live and Let Live is a good philosophy.
