The study was of poor people, and it constructed a situation where these parents had a financial incentive to keep exposing their children to the pesticides. More affluent and educated parents know that children who are exposed to pesticides have a greatly increased risk of many kinds of cancers. Don't you think it is more the role of government agencies to educate poor people to dangers they may not know about than to pay them money and use their children as guinea pigs? Wouldn't it be better for the public health to warn those parents about pesticides? Does that study really seem ethical to you, and like a good use of taxpayer funds?
