Obama proposes new agency to make Americans' food safer

[donnay]

Why do you hate safe food, donnay?

I can see the app now.

It will start out like seat belts...then we will need to get health permits for our own home kitchens.

All you have to do is go find the lobbyist that have been visiting him lately.

Meanwhile over at Donnay's house

Count on it.

With in home surveillance and random inspections to monitor compliance.

 

[GunnyFreedom]

Oh for heaven's sake.

 

[heavenlyboy34]

I dunno about you all but I feel safer already.

I certainly do! Let us be thankful our Wise Overlords are so concerned about Citizen Safety(TM).

A dozen federal agencies are responsible for food safety and they still cant get the job done??? Make it 13 I guess - a baker's dozen....


throw all them agencies in the garbage... disband them all.

Surely a few billion more tax dollars will protect the children.....

How many times do we have to point it out to others that this is NOTHING to do with SAFETY and EVERYTHING to do with CONTROL.

(current crowd does exceptionally well at realizing this)

 

[Weston White]

Let's see.

We had too many agencies too busy having their little turf battles to prevent 9/11, so we created a fourteenth agency called the DHS to force the other thirteen to play nice together.

It didn't work.

This multiplied by a 10,000!

 

[Czolgosz]

Get out and vote, people. It's our only hope!

 

[Working Poor]

What happened with the FDA, and USDA? Moar departments, moar regulations, moar of all the government stuffs.

Obviously something flew under the radar and they need "help"

Vilsack IS a lobbyist. He worked for monsanto before becoming Governor of IA, and then he was appointed to the Dept of Agriculture. Do you really think that he ever stopped talking to or working with his old buddies at monsanto?

Food certification should be handled by the free market.
