You're already eating nano-additives (USA at least)

How should society be organised, if at all?

The FDA allows food manufacturers to use nanochemicals/particles in food, if the regular form of the additive is already used. The problem with this 'logic' is that nano-versions of chemicals can do things like cross the blood brain barrier, move from the gut to the blood, enter cells, etc. in ways that the larger versions cannot. And there is evidence in animal experiments to show that these additives can cause damage. Is there evidence in humans? Well, you'd think that they would test this stuff first on animals, then on humans...but they don't.
