This is just Nonsense
So apparently the Great Minds in Washington have gotten together and decided the only way to protect our children from dangerous toys and goods from China etc is to create a ban on selling used clothing and toys that is not marked with a date. What will happen to the garage sales and consignment sales that I go to a few times a year. They sell quality toys and clothing but because they will not be marked with a date they will no longer be sold. Not to mention the crafters, sahm who make a living by making handmade goods. They will have to submit there items for testing. I am sure there is more to this and I will interested in seeing how they police such a thing....If anyone knows anything more..please let me know. Here is a link to where I have read about it. http://www.change.org/ideas/view/save_handmade_toys_from_the_cpsia
