> Baseball, you need to do your research on the history of the education system in North America.
Well my history of the education system goes back a lot further than the 80s or 90s, when my children were in school. I was in elementary school in the 1960s. My children were in school in the 1990s and my grandchildren are in school today. I don't see much difference between my children's experience and their children's experience. In the 1990s, peanut butter was pretty much outlawed in the schools my children attended. I'd like to see some data here instead of anecdotes from teachers. I have anecdotes too and they are different from yours.
It is also likely the case that increased awareness of various mental health and intellectual disability disorders has made parents more aggressive in demanding testing and accommodation for their children.

I don't think I said that at all. But I challenge you to provide some evidence that your "realities" are real. And in any case, when the problems you note are well-documented (obesity and its attendant problems of HTN, diabetes, etc), the problem is not big pharma but big food.What started as a question about vaccines and autism has morphed so much that I no longer know what the issues here are.
And I greatly dislike your insulting tone with me. I am not stupid and I am not a shill for big pharma. And not only do I believe in climate change, but I am an expert in environmental economics and frequently do public speaking on the topic. What are your credentials, since you know so much?
