Children's toys should be at the front of the list of things that are guaranteed to be safe. Tested, re-tested and re-re-tested - by the manufacturer and approved by the Consumer Product Safety Commission.
Unfortunately, it appears that one of the largest manufacturers, Mattel, has been getting a free pass for the past years. The nations largest maker of toys, including Barbie, has not been required to test for things like lead and poisoned plastics.
The story above describes the competitive advantage that Mattel has - they spend less money on testing, thus make more profit. The scarier part of the story is the risk the nation's children suffer.
