If everything around us and inside us isn’t somehow related to the oil industry, we Americans would wither and die immediately. Don’t you know?
Serious answer though: The FDA is slow, inefficient, and likely paid off from banning chemicals, but every once in a blue they do. States like California take a more proactive role in banning chemicals, and since California has an economy larger than some nations, they tend to have a lot of pull, so all is not lost. America is more like the EU these days than a cohesive nation. Some states are cool, some are ok, some are Texas…but…yeah, we really suck as a whole.
