Yeah, but now the grandparent commenter's nightmare "toddlers dying" scenario, which seems impossible to overcome, has been reduced to a "powerful lobbyists" scenario, which is daunting, but possible, to fight.

The problem is that there won't be any real fight before toddlers start dying, because until then you can always leave the issue for later.

the unfortunate truth is that the toddlers have to start dying for the lobbyists to start losing.
