America
has always had its share of catastrophic financial panics and urgent
business problems. Many were brought on by special concerns and,
occasionally, special interests. Follow the money or political trail
and you get to see the inception of each.
Some
examples: DDT poisoning, generically modified foods, global warming,
killer bees, mad cow disease, over-population concerns, ozone holes,
toxic tampons, the y2k disaster, and so on.
All
of these were or are still problematic or ill-conceived but are
media-swept and promoted to produce a frenzy among their
proponents,(See
the Earl J Weinreb NewsHole® comments.)
