Oh God! This is getting so scary! And it pisses me off. Sorry, but it does. This is MY body and I should have the right to decide what I put in it, on it, near it, etc.! I think the government has other "issues" to deal with besides regulating our foods like they are doing.
Thanks for the "heads up".
We ALL have to act to stop this insanity!

Thanks for the information. I just faxed my protest. And sent an email to everyone on my addressbook asking them to do the same.

Read the document. It looks like this is voluntary. Still BS and still a bad idea as it would likely affect most people who by greens.
Vote for Ron Paul in the Republican Primary if you want the government out of your lives.

I read the proposal by the Dept. of Agriculture, and it looks like they really do want feedback. Hopefully they will receive enough "thumbs-downs" to make a difference. I think it's crazy how short of a notice people have to leave comments. Thank goodness for the internet!
