Wyoming makes it legal to buy food directly from your neighbors and local farm

[Stratovarious]

I lived on a farm for a long time in AZ, the state could not make you permit buildings or interfere with food you grew and tell
you how to anything , grow sell , nothing.
Not talking about pesticides with epa, just the growing selling, and what you built or didn't build.

Good for Wyoming!!

The FEDS made it illegal. You can't even milk your cow and share it with your neighbor because it hasn't been inspected.

It's absolutely disgusting to note how deep the Federal Gov has gotten into our daily lives.
Sadly , both parties authorized it every step of the way.

In a free society people would be less likely to sue, and more likely to be more responsible and work things out. Even 50 years ago, people were less likely to sue and the regulations were not astronomical even then.

Bigger government is NEVER the answer for a free society.

less likely to sue because they don't want to? or can't? do you consider tort reform, limiting tort lawsuit reward amounts, a step towards less government and more freedom?

...anybody can forge any receipt

You switched that around. We were talking about the customer who gets a receipt, not the customer who doesn't get a receipt.

...there's little way to tell what's a "legit" receipt that'll hold up in a court of law.

There's actually a lot you can do. The detail of documenting a transaction will depend on the significance of that transaction.

Reiterating my point: "Bigger government is NEVER the answer for a free society."

Makes it legal?

WTF! Why was it ever illegal?

I was thinking the same thing. We citizens are so grateful when something is made legal for us.

I was thinking the same thing. We citizens are so grateful when something is made legal for us.

Especially when it's something we've been doing for thousands of years without their gracious permission.

Grateful is probably the wrong emotion. Satisfied that there are reasonable people who actually seem to care about these issues may be more appropriate. After all, it's a good thing this prohibition has been reversed.

We're still talking about the customer who gets a reciept, it can be fake, altered, and if it can be fake, a customer who wasn't one can forge one and become one.

There's actually a lot you can do. The detail of documenting a transaction will depend on the significance of that transaction.

Again, can easily be forged, it can be forged today, without a few more steps of verification, it'll only be easier to forge, easier to doubt, harder to prove.

Significance of transaction or significance of loss?

Hypothetically: A free society would have people who are much calmer; have morals and be more responsible and less likely to sue.

Tort reform in the current system we have is impossible. The system is corrupted and needs to be dismantled and revamped as it was intended to be used.

So a free society would cause people to be calmer? or only when we have calmer people will we get to a free society? I appreciate your responses.

In a free society, you have real choices and competition. Competition is not always the cut-throat corporate empires that we percieve competition to be. It just has to be a choice. Two neighbors both grow corn. One neighbor is always rude to you and insists that no matter what, youre always wrong. The other neighbor you may not know quite as well, but always leaves you alone and shows you respect. Which one would you buy corn from? Personally, I'd choose the one that showed me a small modicum of respect. From that we can both cooperate. We are calmer. This is as involved as an entire society needs to be. The ones that show respect and cooperate through peace without threat of external force are the leaders of those societies. The fear mongers are cast out and shunned. People disassociate themselves from the disrespectful.

The world does not appear to you the way you see it, it appears to you the way you see yourself. If you see yourself a violent fearful person who needs a bigger bully to protect them, you'll see everyone else in the world the same exact way. But, if you see that people mostly just want to be left alone and only step outside of that area by cooperating with others, and are overall generally good, not perfect, just good, then you just need to see yourself the exact same way. You can survive quite easily like this. We have done it for a very long time without the Nanny State, and we can do it again.

And yes, growing your own corn is an alternative.

and they say F you, then what?

um....don't buy their product?

Man, those merchants are always giving me fake receipts! I'm not going to taking it any more!!!

a customer who wasn't one can forge one and become one.

I once turned into a receipt. Took me three days to get the antidote to return to human.

...without a few more steps of verification,...

If you ever come out of out unrealistic mode, then you might consider taking the steps. It actually sounds like you're drunk though, and can't even stand up.

Going to correct you....brought up on a dairy farm...

FDA isn't the overseeing body on dairy. Its done by the states today and most certainly was in 1970. However, the FDA IS trying to take some of that from the states.

Last I was exposed to milk/law issues was in the 70's when the FDA inspector told our neighbor that he had to choose, either sell commercially to big dairy or sell local to neighbors.

Apparently the big deal then was the self-serve out of cold storage tanks......

Simple solution; no neighbors "sampling" milk after 6:30AM or before 6:30PM and the clean and dirty bottles moved from the cold storage room to their root celler, same with the "donation" box for those who could pay.........

Neither did you. Get a receipt.

I could very well have gotten the inspectors employer wrong, that was many dead brain cells ago but the gist of the story remains as I remember it....

Even in spite of the decades I can clearly remember Mr.S. ranting and raving about the guv-ment infringing on his business..

what steps will take you above and beyond "he said/she said" and with some authoritative evidence that'll hold up in court?

Forge a receipt to become a (fake) customer.
