New Question for the 10th week

Time is really flying. It's already 10th week here at KNUE. I think I am still in the same place when I came here on March 3rd. Therefore I am easily driven by impetuosity.
Nowaday most hot issue in our country is that our government agreed to reopen our market to U.S. beef. But our country suspended U.S. beef imports in 2003 after BSE (bovine spongiform encephalopathy, or Mad Cows Disease) was discovered in the United States. The beef market opening is a matter concerning our life and health. Scientists believe BSE spreads when farmers feed cattle recycled meat and bones from infected animals. Eating meat from infected animals is believed to be linked to the rare but fatal brain-wasting human variant, Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease.
I can't understand the governments standpoint. What do you think about the government's situation? Do you agree with it or not?
