The FDA lies about everything. That is why they must be defunded and disbanded. Most of our agencies need to be disbanded because they lie, cheat, steal, and ignore laws. These agencies do NOT work for our welfare/interests.
And awake people aren't shocked to hear that the criminals are still behaving like criminals.
Amen! If I trusted any one of those agencies to do what they say, this would be a different matter. As it stands though, these institutions are corrupted beyond belief. Everyone involved needs to have their entire families barred from ever holding any kind of public office. With any luck this would remove most government bureaucrats and a sizable chunk of congress.
Monsanto pays better.
This woman apparently thinks she (or someone) can get the FDA to stop behaving like it has been behaving SINCE INCEPTION.
Not likely.
EVERY federal agency protects those with the Big Bucks to buy protection, and those people aren't you and me. This began in the 1800s with the very FIRST federal regulatory agency (for the railroads).
If you want an industry to be properly regulated -- i.e., in a manner that benefits the public, the industry itself, the insurance companies (without which you really can't DO business), and every other player, and WITHOUT raising prices into the stratosphere, you need to use competitive market regulation, as with (also from the 1800s) Underwriter Labs (now just named UL) or the NFPA (National Fire Protection Association. UL is no longer a non-profit; the NFPA still is.
This is the way. Although her heart is in the right place, she is stupid to think she can get the agencies together to fix this. If anything, they'll collude even more.
The only way out is to abolish and reform. Just like the Founding Father's warned us.
Spoken like a true Lawya. Insurance against having a brick thrown thru your window is called something else.
Not a lawyer.
Insurance companies want products to be safe so they don't have to pay out so much in claims; they've been instrumental in getting safety features added to cars, for example.
When monopoly and coercion (i.e., government) are removed from regulation, corruption is minimized. "Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely."
The Ins. racket only cares about the ratio of premiums to costs. So do you think all (majority) the older cars without the new "safety features " had their insurance go down ?
What the Hell are you talking about?
When people get hurt or killed in car accidents, it costs the insurance company's money. Do you think they WANT high costs? Effective safety gear lowers insurance costs. It also protects the lives and well-being of customers. It does raise the price of cars, so there's a balance needed, and a market-based regulation is both better able to strike a balance that works for all parties AND would allow at least the possibility of cheaper, non-compliant vehicles to be sold, perhaps with higher insurance premiums.
Sorry to complicated for you.
I bet you think you can tax a corporation ? Nope , Tax = cost = price increase
Of course businesses have to pass along higher costs (or take a hit to profits), but businesses compete ON PRICE in a FREE market. De-regulating (relatively speaking) the telephone companies back in the 70s led to a huge drop in prices, as the Baby Bells had to compete with one another. Long distance calls used to be a luxury.
When government gets involved in "regulation", you typically see prices skyrocket, as with the FDA and Big Pharma.
You coulf have stopped your headline after "FDA LIES"
Why are food and drugs one agency? They can poison us in the food so we stay sick and gotta purchase drugs… I can imagine how difficult it is to get them to take the poison out of the food when they making all this money off ppl being sick
The deputy commissioner of the FDA is Jim Jones? That's so appropriate.
No one here would be surprised. Fark a farmer newspaper in Oz admitted certain sprays are causing increase cancers....but don't worry we ain't gonna do anything about it 🤷🤡🌎🤦🥴
