Dr. Joseph Mercola on corruption in federal regulatory agencies

Mercola states:

Most people believe that our federal regulatory agencies, such as the Food and Drug Administration, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), and the FCC, are staffed with impartial experts who take a leading role in performing research and establishing safety standards with an eye toward protecting public health.

This is very often not the case. Typically, government agencies rely on the research community to produce findings that they can merely evaluate to determine regulatory action. And guess who is funding much of the research that determines product safety regulations? That's right, the industries who manufacture the products.
