The FDA was careful to avoid using the word “counterfeit” when discussing the incident

Of course. The FDA isn't working for us, it's working for the politicians who have been paid off by the companies who find it much more profitable to import ingredients from China.

The authorities did their best to play down the poisoned dog food incident, but that was the one that got away from them.

And can anyone doubt that the Chinese deliberately put ethalene glycol into toothpaste and other products that poisoned people, because it tests like glycerine if you don't check too closely?

There was deliberate counterfeiting in a lot of these cases. The dog food was deliberate, too--a chemical was added to make it seem as if it had more protein in it.

Hey it’s just “free market capitalism” like many people here will tell you.

You’re right, the FDA doesn’t work for the people any longer. Neither does the entire federal government actually.

Just remember, China=good........just ask any free market “conservative”.

God help us all.
