Are you another anarchist who objects to food inspection and licensing?

Didn't you go after another poster for this kind of crap?

I am against government control of all food sources.

Think about what's going on. Obama said that we can't continue driving our SUV's, eating as much as we want and keeping our heat on 72.

Using GW, the Gov can ration fuel.

Government has "bought" banks and the car industry is next.

They want to tax "cow gas".

Yeah. Let's allow them to control food too.

Are you getting what I'm saying? Anarchy has nothing to do with it. The government is out of control and going to get worse.

FDA “inspected” “food” is allowed to be sold and consumed, and crap that makes people sick hits the headlines all the time. All kinds of noxious chemicals are legal that legitimately should be called poisons.

Screw gov regulations other than a few real ones that might keep people from dying. Like listing the actual food ingredients, country of origin.

IMO.

This is not “control of food sources”, this is about the proper licensing of a retail food outlet which is selling food products to its $5.00 “members”.

>>>>>>Didn’t you go after another poster for this kind of crap?<<<<<<<<

No, I didn’t. I went after him for calling me a “Sheep”, which is an ad hominem. It means pejoratively a mindless animal who follows the leader (shepard).

Convsersely, identifying your apparent political position on food safety as “anarchist” may be harsh but it’s certainly not an ad hominem attack on you personally. Or it shouldn’t be seen that way.

>>>>>Are you getting what I’m saying? Anarchy has nothing to do with it.<<<<<<<

Yep, I get it. But I think you should pick your battles more wisely.

Food inspections and food safety and licensing were put into place for good reasons, and if you travel to countries that don’t have them you’ll see exactly what those good reasons are. Disgusting. Diseases. Illnesses.

IMO the co-op people were challenging very reasonable laws and tilting at windmills. Why didn’t they get a lawyer if they were really serious, or just pay the darned license fee?

Ah. They had “a cause” and “a mission”. They’re “a co-op”.

Uh huh.
