Sat Nam Everyone,
I am writing about U.S. Senate bill.... S. 510, otherwise known as the
Farm Bill, but called the "Food Safety Modernization Act." It will be
voted on this coming Monday, November 29th.
Basically, this bill will do the following:
- Gives FDA LOTS of power to shut down family farms
- drives up the costs of food production by adding even more layers of
government interference (17,000 more bureaucrats and $1 billion
increased spending)
- Empowers the Feds to impose international standards on our domestic
food producers
Another issue that particularly concerns me is that if there is ever a
situation where we have to rely on growing our own food for survival,
that gives the lovely govt power over determining what we can/cannot do...
To learn more able the bill, please research these sites:

Please realize that if this bill passes, it will mean that it will be
illegal for a private person to grow, share, sell or transport homegrown
food. If EVER we are in a situation where we need to grow food on our
own, the government would be able to stop us. So, let's stop them first!!!
