Ok Cons

let's hear how the government is interfering with the rights of big business to poison the population for profit. The Senate passed legislation that gives the Food and Drug Administration more oversight over food safety standards.

"This law allows the FDA to announce food recalls, whereas currently, it's been up to manufacturers to recall their products. It also gives the FDA the ability to access internal records at farms and food manufacturing facilities."


Maybe the GOP can repeal this along with OSHA, Child Labor laws and the healthcare bill in January. All such burdens to the "hard working" (lmao) greed filled entitled class.

They won't repeal it, they just won't fund it. Watching the Newhour last evening and seeing McConnell, Boehner and Cantor after their meeting with Obama they reminded me of the three monkeys. "see no evil, hear no evil, . . . "

How much caffeine can my coffee have?

Are they going to make sure my neighbors garage meets sanitary standards when he cleans his kill?

You haven't heard of the Bambi Protection Act? They'll have a SWAT team over there.

I mean search and seizure issues, no warrants, no recourse.
