What a travesty!!

Our food system is set up and run by people hell bent on pure profit and health is the secondary motive. We are not allowed to eat raw food but food processed till there is no nutritional value left is perfectly fine. Then we wonder why the majority of people are 30+ lbs overweight.

Your post shows an incorrect view of Conservative principles, and it has NOTHING to do with the video at the link.

What you seem to miss and what is happening all across the nation is that sadistic Statists at all levels of government are out to abuse the citizens and small businesses (and large businesses that go against the Marxist).

Yes, some big businesses use the power of government to punish competitors and such. That is not a failure of government, but an abuse of power by those in government. It's what Sarah and others called Crony capitalism.

It's disgusting how government at all levels is abusing our freedoms.

If there was any proof to such fantastic claims, it would be wonderful to see. Some anecdotes about how some (proportion unmeasured) people did better on the raw product (which they ought to be free to consume, don’t mistake me) is the best that ever gets produced. Some claim that pasteurization removes minerals, something chemically impossible. When pasteurization first came into practice, there was soon a large demand for it; not only did the milk keep longer, there WERE fewer milk-borne diseases. Today, a farm must be very scrupulous about sanitation if it is to produce publicly acceptable raw dairy products.

This is one area where Europeans have more freedom than we do.
