I don’t make any argument about how competent the gov’t is but I purchased a case of peanut butter crackers at Costco that were part of the same recall. Got two notices from Costco and know many other retailers carried products containing peanut butter from this plant.
To blame this on the gov’t is absurd and it’s part of the same logic that sees the gov’t continue to grow in size and incompetency. Some congresscritter will decide we need 250 more FDA investigators to prevent this. This company will be sued beyond belief and that makes more impact than 250 more federal inspectors.
FEMA needed care packages and bought a product (assume on the free market) just like I purchased a case of crackers for my toddlers.
If you were being sarcastic then I apologize.
No I wasn’t being sarcastic and there’s no need to apologize. Just differing opinions.
It is NOT absurd to blame the SAME GOVERNMENT that ordered a recall to NOT dump their own stores of that crap product.
Just a differing opinion.
Almost as absurd as the blame placed on the Bush administration by the democrats and their media henchmen when Katrina hit Chocolate Town.
Almost as absurd as the government's response to the Katrina criticism.
Almost as absurd as having to watch the race card played everytime a black is offended, feels slighted or wants something else from the taxpayers.
Almost anything to do with the federal government these days is absurd. About the only group that is still functional is the military and Obama has already started to remedy that.
