I have enough government in my life telling how to think and how to live.

FGFan, circa nineteenth century: And indeed, if you wish your bread-making flour to be flour only, perhaps you should grow the wheat by your own labor. For you have not considered, sir, that perhaps I prefer my purchased flour to contain plaster-of-paris and perhaps I enjoy the improved color that the addition of lead gives to many of the foods I ingest. The government exerts an inordinate amount of control over my daily life and I prefer not to be enlightened on the ingredients in the foods I ingest into my own body and entrust the businesses my own good health. Thus I rest sound at night, sure that they care for nothing more than my well-being, even at the expense of their own profits.
(not meant unkindly, FGFan, but the reason hormones and antibiotics in meat are a big deal is because they aren't there for your health; they're there to keep animals in unsanitary conditions healthy "enough" that they can be turned into food for humans. They're bad for you.)
As for the survey, hey, the percentage of people who think racing should be banned or are ambivalent is about equivalent to the percentage of people who think Bush is still doing a good job, and he's still President. Wait. I'm not sure if that's good or bad for racing...
