Attacking me personally,because you don't like what I post ...
First of all, I love what you post. I think it is hilarious. Secondly, I'm very sorry about your thin-skin. I hope you are able to solve that problem too.
The "fact" is, this country's food supplies and medicine were doing just fine until the govenment got involved with them. If you were taught otherwise in "private" school, or any other, you were taught lies.
I do not blame you for what others taught you, by the way. Just so you'll know I'm not, "attacking you." I do not attack anyone. No one is worth that effort.

I learned about adulterated foodstuffs, in school, from reading on my own,and from first hand sources, who had lived in the 1800s and early 20th century. What are your sources, which will support your feckless claims?
Try reading " THED GOOD OLD DAYS-THEY WERE TERRIBLE", by Otto L. Bettmann, for a start. You'll actually learn something. :-)
I have offered here an alternative view to conventional wisdom which I believe has some merit.
We have all read Upton Sinclair's "The Jungle" and can agree abuses were easy to find back in the 'good ole days'.
Sadly, we all HAVE NOT, for example, read the story of White Castle which set high standards of hygiene as early as 1912 for Hamburger Stands.
On balance, reasonable people can agree progress comes slowly under the best of conditions and the best of conditions do not include endless pronouncements from the nattering knuckleheads of nitwittery found in most government bureaucracies.
Best regards,
