Watch Food Inc. Yes it is biased but it brings up good factual points of what is happening in the US.
It is most definitely anti small business in scope. I was discussing this with some Minneapolis lefties who are big on “sustainable local organic” farming, and they were outraged, as well as a bit surprised that they were agreeing with someone on the right. There are a lot of organic farms in Minnesota, and nearly all of them are small family owned businesses. The scale of these farms make the requirements of the tracking paperwork an impossible burden. Using the free market viewpoint, I called this the government using excessive regulation in order to reduce marketplace choice, in order to favor big agribusiness (which recieves most of the agricultural subsidies, BTW). The Food Safety Bill has nothing to do with food safety.
Yikes, I’m sounding like Jason Lewis!
