There are some major challenges finding a way to manufacture consumer products in the USA and bring in the cost consumers are now expecting.

That's true. I've learned a lot about the struggle companies like Kid Basix and Thinksport went throught to try to make it happen. They ended up being forced to manufacture outside the US.

That's hilarious, Claudia - we can't stand pink stuff either! It's funny - we have the worst time selling anything pink in our store too. Maybe it has to do with our utter dislike of the color or something :)

Thanks Titania for bringing this outrageous article to our attention!

I linked to a fantastic response by Healthy Child above. They believe the attack was a planned strategy:

The Consumer Product Safety Commission is expected to vote on lifting the enforcement stay on testing of phthalates on Wednesday. The column is obviously meant to spread ... See Moredoubt, despite the scores of scientific studies and biomonitoring reports that show that phthalates have been linked to serious health problems and hormone disruption. These chemicals are ubiquitous in the bodies of most Americans, including infants and children.

Real vs. Artificial Christmas Trees: Not an Obvious Answer
At first glance, artificial trees seem to make more sense as a long-term solution when considering cost, ease of use and the reusability factor. Artificial trees actually have some eye appeal these days, as compared to the days when they were manufactured by a toilet brush company...

Bought an artificial one made in USA, stated to be lead free. No luck on finding lights that are RoHs compliant, though.
