They've got the perfect complement in a Senator. Oklahoma Sen. Tom Coburn has blocked consideration of a food safety bill that would give the Food and Drug Administration more power to prevent foodborne illness. The legislation would give the agency more power to recall tainted products, increase inspections of food processors and require producers to follow stricter standards for keeping food safe. Coburn, a Republican, says he is objecting because the bill is not paid for. Republicans say Democrats could get around Coburn's objections by voting to end debate on the bill, which would require 60 votes. The legislation passed the House last year and has strong bipartisan support. A spokeswoman for Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid of Nevada said Democrats should not have to resort to such procedural moves. I guess we only have to pay for tax cuts and not increased spending. Why don't the Democrats propose a new tax on food produced for human consumption? Add the tax at ever stop along the way through the food processing chain. Coburn didn't have a problem funding bullets and bombs that "weren't paid for" but god forbid we protect our own citizens from food borne illnesses. Over regulation leads to black markets. In spoiled meat and eggs? I guess he never read Upton Sinclair's book The Jungle. Correction: He never reads. |

I guess you've never been poisoned from buying tainted food. Either that or it went right to your head. Like most slope-headed Republicans, they never figure the true cost of **** ups. They're still working on the notion that resources are limitless. What do you suppose the cost of a million pounds of meat being recalled is in product, labor, lost productivity, lost feed, etc.? God forbid a Republican thinks more than one step ahead. It'd make their brains hurt too much. |

If it were only that simple and greedy *******s weren't part of the equation, the egg producers would have reacted to the warnings they were given.

Yeah, killing people with tainted food is certainly a private sector responsibility. Too bad if a business goes out of business if it murdered people with bad food. According to you and other nutcases, the family of the person who dies has no recourse, not even in the courts, so why not remove all the regulations. Were you born stupid or did you learn it somewhere? |
