People are already calling it NAIS for everything. I personally would rather trust local farmers when buying my kids' food than the FDA telling me something is "Safe" when they really mean they can trace it back if it turns out not to be safe. Traceback is the lazy way of covering their butts and paying lip service to "doing something about food safety." Has the FDA ever approved a "SAFE" drug that actually wound up killing people? Why should we give them these sweeping powers? At the bottom of the link below explaining the bill and it's dangers, there is a link to a petition that we need to circulate to make our voices heard now, while it is in session. Let's make sure that they cannot ignore our voices. http://foodfreedom.wordpress.com/2009/06/16/hr-2749-totalitarian-control-of-the-food-supply/ Mike Murphy Apparently, they are trying to shift NAIS and even more control over any type of food production and food movement over to FDA, in a bill that is being fast tracked this week.
