All one has to do is look at the TV ads by by the likes of James Sokolove and friends and look at all the lawsuits at the pharmaceutical companies and their drugs that had FDA approval just a few years ago and we now find they caused serious harm.
Why is this any different?? The local Government says its the best choice in 2017....what will they say in 2030??
I have nothing better to offer concerning the eradication of invasive weeds but that does not mean I shouldn't be concerned and simply trust all those knowledgeable government studies and highly educated people, these are the same people who approved the drugs in the link above.
Is it possible and OK for someone to remain highly skeptical without offering a better solution because that is where I am at, the solution is simply above my pay grade...I offer nothing but skepticism and doubt.
