O'Brien of the Inner Party:
My dog ate a ham bone twice monthly. No packaged treats, only home-made stuff (boiled egg, apple slices, etc). She lived 19 years without any health issues. She was a miniature dachshund.
Laputa:
China has become the perfect exemplar of Caveat Emptor Capitalism -- so what if it poisons the customer (the customer's children or the customer's dog), it's up to the customer to read the fine print and know everything there is to know about the product. If he doesn't, he deserves whatever happens. It isn't the manufacturer's duty to explain why using it's product amounts to suicide. That's the sort of Capitalism the US is building and the Capitalism the Conservative Party would like for Canada too! Best of all, a Capitalist economy can still be a totalitarian state!
