Give Oboma Stalin time. I'm sure he has a Czar somewhere already working on it, because his welfare base wants their "fair share."
(Just sign the back of your paycheck, mail it to Washington, and you'll promptly receive your one a gallon a week gas rationing card.)
The Senate version isn’t near as bad on the farmer’s market aspect...yet.
Shouldn’t threaten them unless you end up selling meat there, too.
Don’t see that very often anyway.
I am think all of the common sense minded folks should save up food, bury it if you have to, and then if we have to we can all “Go Galt” on the entire country.
Still scary....I love farmer’s markets.
If they are so concerned about it they should require big food manufactures to irradiate their food. And then just let people know that food bought from small vendors should be washed. But I guess washing food is common sense and is too hard for for the 51% percent of the population who voted for Obama.
Irradiation of food is a heck of a lot safer than pesticides and other GMO alterations to food in the name of preventing bacterial contamination. But we the sheeple have been scared by Hollywood, the media, and the left that Radioactive power and Application of Radioactive Materials is going to result in an instant Mushroom cloud or Mutant Zombies. We live in the Nuclear age for chrissakes!!
OR learn what wild plants, nuts, seeds, fruits, Etc. are edible. Actually, a person living in a rural area has everything they need to survive right outside their front window.
Wild foods are not only healthy, they're very, very good. June berries are like blueberries, for example. Paw Paws (northern paw paws up here) are like bananas. Dandelion greens taste like spinach, and are healthier than the spinach bought in stores.
I already have enough dandelions in my back yard to feed me for a year.

Anything left? Or is the Communist Coup complete?
It only needs 51 votes in the Senate, doesn't it? Do you think there are any repubLICKans with enough guts to actually fillibuster?
Don’t forget seeds. With Monsanto genetically engineered seeds, the seeds produced are sterile so you cannot use the produce you grow for seed. You MUST buy new seed - genetically engineered seed from Monsanto. If you prefer to eat natural foods you won’t even be able to grow it yourself, let alone buy it.
I’ve been going to the local farmers street market once a week lately and I can just imagine what the hippie vegan food vendors there are thinking (If they are even aware of it)
I think I’ll make a point of asking some of them how that Hope and Change is working for them now.
This bill? Yes, I do.
NO therehave been no changes to the child safety act of 2008 except that they have decided not to enforce it for this year.
Let’s just ban all food in the name of safety. That way nobody will ever get sick or die from food again.
(b) Fee Amounts-
(1) IN GENERAL- The registration fee under subsection (a) shall be—
(A) for fiscal year 2010, $500; and
(B) for fiscal year 2011 and each subsequent fiscal year, the fee for fiscal year 2010 as adjusted under subsection (c).
(2) ANNUAL FEE SETTING- The Secretary shall, not later than 60 days before the start of fiscal year 2011 and each subsequent fiscal year, establish, for the next fiscal year, registration fees under subsection (a), as described in paragraph (1)
I think those little farms stands will go away.
Definitely if that’s the case.
I wouldn’t pay $500.
It hard to believe that our country has come to this. How I use to think those conspiracy theorist were nuts. Now, everything I see that is happening to the country, can see that they are not so crazy after all!

Thank you.
I knew *something* was done, just because the usual yard sales, flea markets and salvage places around here are still in business.
It is interesting, IMO, that even while they can pass laws to control what doesn’t need controlling, they can also suspend or modify those same laws if the outcry is loud enough.
