Well, until the next time the pickers wipe their backsides with it.
Ok, so just cook things fully for a few months. Got it.
More fear mongering.
In my own experience, USDA and FDA add very little to food safety and food security. They are bureaucrats, in a complex system, who are extremely slow, take a long time to decide anything, and often spend a lot of time and money chasing down useless, dead ends.
No farmers are food processors are in the business of killing their customers. nearly all things done for food safety are implemented within the industry, voluntarily, new quality initiatives, mutual self-policing, inspections, testing and reporting.
If the USDA and FDA were shut down permanently, you would see no change in food safety.
Which is an argument for constraining the availability of low skill, low wage immigrant labor to get to the point where automation is viable and reliable machines harvest lettuce and do not pollute it.
As far as the media is concerned the argument that bad things will happen if function x, y or z of the government is curtailed is as much an argument against the intransigent democrats as it is against the administration. It may not be pretty enough for the Washington media - but Trump is the first Republican with the balls to confront these issues. Prior Democratic and Republican Presidents have kicked this can down the road, ad infinitum. Until Trump.
Oh Noes! No more food available till Nasty Nan, and Up Chuck say so!
First global warming..now this..the only option left is to give Trump his wall and then the shut down will end.
It’s for the children.
Face facts, if the self proclaimed Nobles in Congress have never moved these people into the same category of “essential services” as their drivers and bodyguards, then they’re not essential services.
FWIW osha paid us a visit today for a “routine” inspection.
nabisco needs a federal hack to tell them how to make good cookies. BF*()*)*)*)S
Well, that's it then.
We are all gonna die.
Yep.
.
We’re all gonna die!
People forget or don’t realize that the vast majority of government services that we have come to depend on (right or wrong) come from state and local governments. Not the gods (little g) in DC.
Which is why this partial shutdown of the federal government is not the sky falling. Most of it is stuff the federales shouldn’t be doing anyway. Are we really going suffer if the Department of “Education” is inactive for a month or two? I’d call that a BIG plus.
God forbid the American people realize that they can live just fine without the 99.9% of government that we’ve been brainwashed into believing we can’t live without.
