Do you people ever write about Seattle, or have you simply given up?

The FDA is (and has been) a farce. When you allow the beef industry to police itself in terms of regulation and compliance, when you allow the BigAg concerns (Monsanto, Dow, et al) to do the same thing, when you turn your head away when the dairy industry pollutes the environment and nation's waterways, you cease to be an effective organization. Scrap the FDA, just get rid of it altogether, and start fresh. There is no more corrupt part of government than the FDA. And fwiw Mister G, this is as much a Seattle concern as anywhere else.

Really, Mr. G. Turn that frown upside down! There's no need to be so negative all the time.

how did FDA regulations stay the same for the better part of a century?


Because making any changes would have been "bad for business". It's why, as much as Republicans whinge, governmental regulations are few and far between, why most labor and safety regulations are merely helpful suggestions, and why the overwhelming majority of enforceable regulations are only enforceable through civil court, not through governmental investigations and fines.

@1 If you don't think the FDA and it's regulations on food aren't information any city dweller needs to have why even bother to post?

Please wait...
