Yesterday, a group of scientist and researchers in Minot, North Dakota, released a statement saying that people who popped a great quantity of bubble wrap as child was 83.2546% more likely to have hearing loss as an adult.
The U.S. Congress is now trying to pass a law saying that if any child under 16 is caught with bubble wrap, the child will be taken away by social services and the parents will have to spend a minimum of 5 years in prison. The argument is that this is "Child Endangerment."
This comes after a child in Kalamazoo, Washington became deaf after spending 2 days locked in a post office with nothing to do except pop bubble wrap.
