Senate Bill 425, or the Food Safety and Tracking Improvement Act

The blogosphere is buzzing with comments on the legislation, including the following:

* Obama and his cronies or his puppetmasters are trying to take total control – nationalize everything, disarm the populace, control food, etc. We are seeing the formation of a total police state.

* Well ... that’s not very “ green “ of Obama. What’s his real agenda?

* This is getting way out of hand! Isn’t it enough the FDA already allows poisons in our foods?

* If you’re starving, no number of guns will enable you to stay free. That’s the whole idea behind this legislation. He who controls the food really makes the rules.

* The government is terrified of the tax loss. Imagine all the tax dollars lost if people actually grew their own vegetables! Imagine if people actually coordinated their efforts with family, friends and neighbors. People could be in no time eating for the price of their own effort. ... Oh the horror of it all! The last thing the government wants is for us to be self-sufficient.

* They want to make you dependent upon government. I say no way! already the government is giving away taxes from my great great grandchildren and now they want to take away my food, my semi-auto rifles, my right to alternative holistic medicine? We need a revolution, sheeple! Wake up! They want fascism ... can you not see that?

* The screening processes will make it very expensive for smaller farmers, where bigger agriculture corporations can foot the bill.

* If anything it just increases accountability, which is arguably a good thing. It pretty much says they’ll only confiscate your property if there are questions of contamination and you don’t comply with their inspections. I think the severity of this has been blown out of proportion by a lot of conjecture.

* Don’t waste your time calling the criminals in D.C. and begging them to act like humans. This will end with a bloody revolt.

* The more I examine this (on the surface) seemingly innocuous bill the more I hate it. It is a coward’s ploy to push out of business small farms and farmers markets without actually making them illegal because many will choose not to operate due to the compliance issue.

Any time the Dems have a bill with 'improvement' in the title, it does just the opposite.

Yes, these bills are all over the net and the liberals with gardens are as upset as we are.

All I can say is, “he is following the communist plan to take over a country”.....

A couple, maybe 4 years ago Chavez nationalized the grocery stores in Valenzuela and they reached the point that the only meat in the butcher shop was chicken legs, which those that could afford them bought for making soup.

I posted a couple days ago the Chavez plan to take over the ports in the states that did not vote for him and that put in governors who are not in his party.

I am still punchy, have been every since the election, what I see happening is far worse than any novel that I ever read or conspiracy post.

There will be trouble, before it gets better.
