If someone in government is trying to pass information and make changes for the benefit of your overall health (and I am NOT talking about the Obamacare laws, whereas they are telling you to get healthcare or else, but of laws like the labeling of products to ensue you are AWARE of ALL ingredients and are able to make an informed decision) you should support them, no matter what designation you usually follow.
Cigarette packaging states plainly that they are bad for you and can cause cancer and other major health issues because you spent your life smoking or hanging out with someone who does.
Fast Food, now has to label detrimental ingredients and their percentages so you know if you will keel over from a heart attack or stroke without warning one day because you have done nothing but stuff yourself with greasy food loaded with trans fats.
Drugs, advertised daily on television and radio, billboards... have warnings listed or stated right then and there, so you can go to your Doctor, (lucky you) and say, "Hey Doc, I want THIS drug because I don't want to feel crappy anymore and I don't mind if it makes me nauseous, dizzy, gives me blackouts or thoughts of suicide..."
INFORMATION people!
Well, how about fragrance manufacturers by LAW having to actually label their products and provide warnings concerning the levels of CARCINOGENIC Toxins, VOCs and ingredients that can not only cause CANCER, but major HEALTH DEFECTS in children, THYROID DISEASE, INTESTINAL DISEASE, failing of vital organs, a MAJOR CAUSE of COPD, ASTHMA and possibly FIBROMYALGIA among a very long list of diseases currently given their own labels, but falling under the symptoms of CHEMICAL poisonings.

This is an important aspect of laws being made in this day and age. Do you WANT to remain a Lemming, or do you WANT to be able to make your own decision with information available to you?
Do you WANT to continue to POISON the people around you or will you change your habits and begin using UNFRAGRANCED/UNSCENTED products in your home or on your person???
You don't have any excuse as I list a lot of safer products on this blog and the ewg.org website.
Is someone out there, hounded by fragrance manufacturers' lobbyists, SITTING ON THIS VERY MAJOR HEALTH ISSUE?!
YOU ASK. CALL YOUR CONGRESSMAN - CALL YOUR SENATOR - GET OFF YOUR COUCH.
IS FRAGRANCE SO VERY IMPORTANT TO YOUR LIFE THAT YOU WOULD INTENTIONALLY HARM THOSE AROUND YOU BY WEARING IT ALL THE TIME??
I WOULD HAVE TO PLACE YOU IN THE SAME CATAGORY AS THOSE PEOPLE WHO STILL INSIST ON PUFFING AWAY IN PUBLIC WITHOUT GIVING A RATS' PATOOTIE ABOUT WHO THEY ARE MAKING SICK.
