They shouldn't have been taken off the market in the first place. There was never any scientific proof that breast implants caused the conditions they were said to; it was all some women having medical problems (much of it imagined) looking to find something to place blame on, and the FDA knew it - but the political pressure was too great. And alot of it was about lawyers looking to make easy money off of lawsuits.

The other factor involved was a political agenda of feminists thinking its male dominated society pressuring women into being sex objects. Whether thats true or not is irrelevant; it should be up to women themselves to decide what to do with their bodies, no matter whether its for just wanting to being more attractive or for reconstruction - both are about body image anyhow. As long as they have the best information available about possible side effects, they should get to "choose". If theres a chance of breaking in 10 years, they should be told that and let them decide.
