Other countries socialize their health insurance premiums and have financial arguments against allowing substances that'll demonstrably increase what insurance companies ask of the government in the future. The USA isn't in this bind so there are fewer strings attached to politicians open to taking money to allow these substances because it'll never result in a politically toxic budget item while it increases their campaign funding via sponsorship and lobby monies.
It's not that these other countries care about their citizens, it's just that their systems are structured in a way that makes it indirectly burns political capital if they allow them.
I don't understand it. If other countries don't allow this crap in their food, why in the hell should we be forced to eat, and pay, for it?
