I think that's part of my objection to reselling old children's books. They're usually at garage sales. Since most children's toys come from say, China, it's pretty obvious that the interstate commerce clause applies to imports from other countries. I'm a little skeptical that we need such laws for domestic manufacture. It would seem like disclosure and transparency that "this much lead is bad" and "toy X has more than that in it, so it is bad" is sufficient. But I don't necessarily think that laws which regulate hazardous substances in "unrelated" objects like toys are a bad or counterproductive idea either.Sun Tzuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03435848395263035323noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2290940558322177176.post-6114475449559878832010-05-20T20:19:17.434-04:002010-05-20T20:19:17.434-04:00What if said toy company only sells intrastate?What if said toy company only sells intrastate?Tragedy101http://www.tragedy102.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.com
