Ce jugement est absolument fabuleux.
Il suffit qu’une agence décide qu’un produit est non cancérigène... pour que toute indication devienne inutile sur les emballages.
Ce n’est plus une question scientifique, mais administrative et confortée par la Cour suprême.
Une fois ceci mis en place, il ne restera plus aux agences qu’à modifier les teneurs acceptables pour d’un seul coup rayer de la carte judiciaire les plaintes légitimes.
The Supreme Court on Thursday sided with the manufacturer of the weedkiller Roundup, overturning a jury award for a Missouri man who claimed the widely used herbicide caused cancer in a decision that could have sweeping impacts on thousands of other Americans who similarly claim the product sickened them.
In the 7-to-2 decision, written by Justice Brett M. Kavanaugh, the majority found that a federal law that regulates pesticides barred the Missouri man’s lawsuit.
Justice Kavanaugh wrote that the Missouri case would “require a cancer warning on Roundup’s label,” which would directly conflict with the label required by the federal Environmental Protection Agency. Because of this conflict, he wrote, federal law “expressly pre-empts” the Missouri man’s claim.
