Let's hear both sides before we rush to any judgement about these so called facts about these so called "chemicals". Maybe some people like fluorinated chemicals? Who needs regulations? Everyone can run their own independent tests in their own privately funded home labs and determine if the chemicals are troubling to them or not.

Not everyone can run their own independent tests, that's the point of regulations. 80% of people have neither money, expertise, knowledge nor perspective to have those tests be run for them. Take away the regulations and you'll have polluted water, Beijing-style air, dangerous chemicals in all kinds of devices, all of it the result of greed, because dangerous is usually cheaper.

  I think that your parent commenter had tongue firmly in cheek when writing that.

No, we should let the market decide. If the customers at fast food place x all die from fluorinated chemicals then that company will go out of business!
