Great. Thanks FDA for raising the prices at my local fish restaurant. I can’t tell you from the bottom of my heart how much I look forward to more regulation from the federal government to ‘protect’ me.
I’m under the impression that it would take something really bad for the FDA to ban food from the Most Favored Nation.
This is one of several areas where I get off the libertarian (and Libertarian) train.
I don't want the U.S. to go back to this again:
" It was only when the whole ham was spoiled that it came into the department of Elzbieta. Cut up by the two-thousand-revolutions- a-minute flyers, and mixed with half a ton of other meat, no odor that ever was in a ham could make any difference. There was never the least attention paid to what was cut up for sausage; there would come all the way back from Europe old sausage that had been rejected, and that was moldy and white – it would be dosed with borax and glycerine, and dumped into the hoppers, and made over again for home consumption. There would be meat that had tumbled out on the floor, in the dirt and sawdust, where the workers had tramped and spit uncounted billions of consumption germs. There would be meat stored in great piles in rooms; and the water from leaky roofs would drip over it, and thousands of rats would race about on it."
