How does a government agency sell out to “corporate food interests”? It’s the other way around. Or perhaps it’s this:

Infiltrate and gain control of big business.

Leftists are already in control of the government agency by creating it (unconstitutionally), so they also take over the previously-independent big businesses and they work together.

How does a government agency sell out to “corporate food interests”?
