Before you foolishly suggest that you do... consider the following:
The FDA is moving to change the classification of salt from something which is "Generally Regarded as Safe" to a "Food Additive" which can be regulated. Apparently the government no longer trusts your ability to read labels and take action accordingly... not that the government has ever trusted your ability to do anything in the first place. Via The Agitator.
Several Senators are proposing an amendment to the farm bill which would create a national ban on selling candy, sugary soda and salty, fatty food in school snack bars, vending machines and à la carte cafeteria lines. School boards and parents wishes be damned, the federal government is going to place more unconstitutional regulations on schools... for the kids of course. Via Cato.
I ask this question often, despite the fact that I know that an answer will never come... but I'll ask it again anyway. When will this stop? Where exactly is the limit on what regulations and impositions the government can make on you? I wonder what will be next. Sigh.
