Cigarettes have been proven as has asbestos. It has been found that with a lot of syndromes the rate of symptoms is the same in the general population. Ie. the silicone implant deal. Later studies showed women with out implants had the same % of symptoms. Still cost Dow $2 billion. I'm not saying that agent orange didn't cause a lot of people harm. Now a farmer using similar but safer products has to take a course and be licensed to use them. Just looking at it from a different angle.
