Edd in KY said: (quoted from post at 11:41:27 10/23/13) It is a big global world we live in and a simple life on the farm may not be so simple after a trip to the drug store.
I read this recently:
"this Pulitzer Prize-winning series has examined how dangerous and poisonous pharmaceutical ingredients from China have flowed into the global market. Reporting on four continents, Walt Bogdanich and Jake Hooker traced the illicit ingredients through traders and middlemen that formed a supply chain stretching from small factories in rural China to consumers around the world. The stories detailed the devastating, sometime deadly, human cost of this toxic pipeline.
Is it realistic to think the state or county health department is better able to deal with this?
State and county law enforcement agencies co-ordinate and exchange information with other agencies all over the nation and most of the world. Why would state and local food and drug outfits be different? I don;t know if you've ever dealt with many Fed Gov agencies, but I have. Other than truly massive budgets and state of the art equipment, I haven't seen where having ".gov" in your web addy makes one solitary bit of difference in effectiveness. In fact, in many cases I saw it was laughable how inept some of the Feds were. So you go ahead and put your faith in Washington based bureaucracies, I'll put mine in the local guy whose kids might be in harms way.
