    A single question

    I would like to know who in the world is still manufacturing lead paint? I know why it is used in paint,in exterior paint it stands up to the elements,it has bright shiny colors that are atractive and appealing. But while lead was removed from paint in the late 70's. The awareness, data and debate started long before that. It wasn't until the late 70's that political demand caught up with consumer demand and lead thus was removed from paint. So my question is, who in the world is still manufacturing this poison?
