Food Fascism in the Land of the Free

Date: September 10, 2010 03:11PM Senate bill S. 510 Food Safety Modernization Act, already passed in the House as HR 2749. Some have demonized the bill as ultimate food fascism where the FDA will micromanage even small farms and co-ops to the point where it will become illegal to grow, share, trade or sell homegrown food. While others see it as a measured way to control the health and quality of factory farms. One thing is for sure, S.510 gives more power to the corrupt FDA to regulate our food.

Date: September 10, 2010 06:05PM We've discussed this ad nauseum already here, and I stand by my assertion(having read the thing) that the provisions would be impossible to implement. So we should continue to monitor, but ought not to panic.
Thanks for reminding us to pay attention to legislation. Kwan used to do that here, but where, oh where, has she gone? Re: Food Fascism in the Land of the Free
