    I agree with you Jackalope, and this is why we the people need to stay active in our government!

    They don't 'sneak' anymore....they 'TELL' us they have to pass the bills "FIRST", so we can have time to read them and find out what's in them.

    I wonder what our founding Fathers would do ?
    Remeber, we only have another 20 some days to start to save America.

    If I said this was 'my 2 cents'.....they'd want to tax that too.

    I want to put my two cents in as well. This isn't an American problem, it's a worldwide problem. Also, it's been going on since at least the 70's, and probably longer.

    I gew up on a small mixed farm. We drank raw milk, ate our own pork, chicken eggs, beef, fruits and veggies.

    I'll second that! We raised our own, and none of us died from it! We didn't need the alphabet groups to tell us what, where, and how much to grow! We need a Congress that will defund these organized crime syndicates and let them dry up and blow away!

    Re: Senate Bill S510 Makes Homegrown Food illegal

    house bill s.510 was replaced by h.r. 2751, i've only read the summary, but

    "Exempts certain establishments that sell food directly to consumers, such as roadside stands, farmers markets or participants in a community supported agriculture program, from specified requirements of this Act"

    That's good to hear, but when you are offered an olive branch in one hand, watch out for the club in the other hand.

    When the time comes you won't be able to eat without them.

    "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. That to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed. That whenever any form of government becomes destructive to these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness."
