USA is rapidly deindustrializing and there is no necessity in damn science kits for kids. Kids must know what is credit card, lawyer, insurance and mortgage. And what is barista and security guard.

Americans. Do not invent new measures. Look what Europe (or even Australia and UK) does and just follow the wise. Instead of excessive tests for science kits it better if you ban unsafe components (such as azodicarbonamide and trans fats) from bread, ban corn syrup, stop importing apple juice from China, or some other, REAL things.
