So you get some of these chemicals impregnated in your system and your children pay the price and your grandchildren and perhaps even quite a few generations after that.
And they will, of course.
If you'll allow me to go back, you asked an important question.
What do we have to do?
And I said we have to detoxify the system, and then we both got off into this frenzy of attacking chemicals, which we should.
Anyway, but it's intellectually easy.
Ban the suckers, okay?
Now, putting pressure on the corporations to back off so the governments can do it would be a good idea.
Not easy.
Corporations have enormous power, unprecedented power in the U.S.,
but very substantial power in the EU and the UK also.
But we have to get them to back off.
We have to start banning these damn things.
Otherwise, no children.
But secondly, and much more difficult, is we have to detoxify capitalism.
We have to slowly but surely...
turn our capitalist societal norms into much more family-friendly, children-friendly over the next several generations.
we have to end up with a society that realizes that 2.1 healthy, well-educated children is a part of the commons.
You may not have any children.
