Then there will be some FDA inspectors going to jail as well.

Congress should do it, they have enough to fill the entire Country in one dump.

I was stunned when I read that. I have no idea how they managed not to get reported to the FDA or why the FDA did not investigate sooner.

It seems that the FDA contracted the state to do the routine walk-throughs and compliance inspections. They were just plain inadequate to do the job. The company, it seems only had to fork over their in-house test results when the federal authorities threw a bioterrorism proviso at them. It's easy to take the food supply for granted. I guess that's a foolish thing to do.

If the person you most loved in the world was dead from eating poisoned food, you’d say, “Well at least it was made in Georgia, not in China.”

Right.

No I’d probably say find the people responsible and hang them. At least in Georgia there’s a chance of finding that person.
