I just finished reading this article about BPA in our diet, and found myself wondering if we have more dangerous predators today than we did as hunter-gatherers: as a wanderer, there were a variety of animals that would have gladly eaten us for dinner, but they would only take one or two at a time, so being a part of a larger group really added a level of safety, just from the mathematical standpoint. Now, being a part of a large group really just makes us a bigger, more attractive target to the corporate interests that want to farm our consumerism while steadily feeding us chemicals that probably kill us a little each day, but certainly help their profitability.
Do you hear it?
That, Mister Anderson, is the sound of inevitability.
