Despite massive protests, US Senate passes S 510 Food Safety Bill



(NaturalNews) The new Food Tyranny Act -- called the "Food Safety Modernization Act" in the U.S. Senate -- has been passed by the senate today. It would give the FDA vast new powers to criminalize and imprison farmers and food producers while doing absolutely nothing to address to real root of the food contamination problem: Factory animal farm operations (which are regulated under the USDA, not the FDA).

http://www.naturalnews.com/030576_Fo...ety_S_510.html

The bill passed 73 to 25, with Sen Tom Coburn (R-Oklahoma) emerging as the greatest "voice of reason" in the debate. His last-ditch amendment to reduce the scale of the bill was defeated this morning.

Here's the official vote record: http://www.senate.gov/legislative/L...

Notably, there wasn't a single Democrat who opposed the bill!

This bill, as originally written, would have outlawed most nutritional supplements through "harmonization" with European laws. It also would have authorized ten-year prison sentences for farmers selling raw milk to their neighbors. Both of those provisions were eventually stripped out of the bill thanks to some last-minute amendments, but it gives you an idea of the outright police state mentality of the original bill authors who attempted to put in place complete government control over food, gardens, raw milk and more.

To give you an idea of how clueless U.S. Senators are about food, the New York Times is reporting that when Senate staff members met to discuss this bill, they would eat Starburst candies and jellybeans. As the NYT reports, "In the midst of negotiations, the negotiators -- nearly all women -- took a field trip to a nearby food market so that a Republican staff member could teach the Democrats how to buy high-quality steaks."

So what we have here is a new food tyranny law that was essentially negotiated by a group of women who eat dead foods, animals products and candy.

No wonder they still don't get it. The contamination of lettuce and other fresh produce is caused by factory animals farms, not by produce farms. (E.coli can only thrive in the digestive tracts of animals, not plants.)

The "small farms" exclusion will soon be meaningless.

The Tester Amendment of the bill did manage to exclude some smaller farmers from the more tyrannical provisions of the bill. As currently stated, this would exclude small farms that sell less than $500,000 worth of food and which sell most of their food locally.

However, Senators failed to consider what's going to happen when the Federal Reserve keeps printing counterfeit money, devaluing the dollar and causing massive food price inflation. A farm that right now produces merely $100,000 worth of food (which could be a small, two-person farm) will soon find itself producing $500,000 worth of food (or more) due to the rapidly falling value of the U.S. dollar.

This is how the Federal Reserve's money counterfeiting actions will further destroy America and place small family farms under the tyranny of the FDA.

What's next: Defeat the bill in committee

The Senate version of the bill must now be reconciled with the House version that was passed last year. This reconciliation committee must hammer out the differences between the two bills.

Democrats are urgently rushing to do this during their "lame duck" session in order to avoid more Republicans getting involved who would seek to scale back the power and size of the federal government.

Some House Democrats are even suggesting they would support passing the Senate version of the bill as it is written, without requiring any changes whatsoever, just to rush it through before the end of the year. NaturalNews and other health freedom organizations intend to fight this effort, hoping to stall the bill until the new Congress can enter the picture and hopefully interject some common sense into the negotiations.

Please don't feed the monster.

If signed into law by the President (who is sure to sign it), this Food Safety Bill would provide yet more power and funding to one of the most dangerous monsters our nation has ever known: The FDA. This is the agency responsible for the death of more Americans than all the wars our nation has ever been involved with -- combined! (http://www.naturalnews.com/030461_S...)

The idea that we're going to save a few lives from food poisoning while subjecting everyone to yet another layer of Big Government tyranny is so abhorrent and downright evil that if our country's founding fathers saw all this going on, they would be stunned into silence that it's happening in "the land of the free." Fresh milk being criminalized? You've got to be kidding...

Only they're not kidding. The FDA is the agency that has raided vitamin companies (http://www.naturalnews.com/021791.html), arrested nutritional supplement manufacturers and ordered the destruction of books containing stevia recipes. This is the agency that censors the scientific truth about natural foods like cherries and walnuts (http://www.naturalnews.com/029698_c...) while promoting the outright fraud and quackery of the pharmaceutical industry.

And now the FDA is to be rewarded for its malfeasance with yet MORE power and authority?

This is how Washington works, folks. The government always thinks it's here to save you, and the Democrats want Big Government to be your nanny and "take care of you." (The Republicans, for their part, just want to bail out the wealthy banksters with your money.) And yet, when it all comes down to it, these people are just tyrants who have forgotten American history and abandoned the Constitution and its founding principles.

Mark my words: Five years down the road, when the FDA's armed "food police" are running rampant across America, arresting farmers and imprisoning lettuce growers, people will be appalled, and they'll wonder, "How could we have let this happen!?" The answer is right here: You let it happen because you allowed Big Government to rule over the food supply. And if there's one thing we know about Big Government, it's that it always wants to get bigger.

It always wants more power. More authority. More funding. And more excuses to function as a dictatorship that rules over the American people.

The Food Safety Modernization Act is to the food supply what the Patriot Act is to the Bill of Rights. We must make every effort to prevent this from becoming law, lest we find ourselves living under a food dictatorship where only dead, fumigated or irradiated food will be allowed to be sold to the public. The "food irradiation plot" has been the plan from the very beginning of all this (http://www.naturalnews.com/023015_f...).

Of course, once the real food is all criminalized and outlawed, there's always soylent green. That might not be too far off, come to think of it.

Comment:

For those of you unfamiliar with the term "Soylent Green", it's from an old Charlton Heston movie of the same name, set in an over-crowded New York City in 2020. Synthetic food has been developed called Soylent Yellow, Soylent Brown, and the newest, Soylent Green. Heston plays a cop who is targeted by the corporation that makes Soylent products because he is on the verge of discovering their terrible secret: Soylent Green is made out of people.

  1. What? You mean the Demonrat (Democrat) Controlled Senate passed this even though there was overwhelming opposition to this including mass protests by the people! Remember folks that this is the same Democrat controlled CON-gress and Administration that forced through Obama care against the will of the people.....Come to think of it this entire administration is ruling against the will of the American people, and to them our voice carries absolutely no weight.....These final death blows to the republic are being dealt out by the departing and INFAMOUS 111th CON-gress that regurgitates to the sheeple that they (The Dictators) know what is best for us........Isn't it about time we show them otherwise? They have illustrated to us time and again that our vote doesn't count because they will do what they want to anyways, only the morons who still vote think they are making a difference only to have that proven wrong shortly thereafter time and time again. Isn't it about time we take direct action to reclaim our freedom and control over our own lives .....How much more intrusion into your personal lives by the government are you willing to take? The Government is run by Bureaucratic Criminals. Criminals! The way that you deal with a criminal is not to take a vote and ask him to leave your house while he is robbing you blind - but to subdue and remove him by force. The Government believes that you will do nothing about anything, that you are submissive, weak and easily controlled.....Our forefathers weren't..........They led a revolution against tyranny that built this great nation. We have squandered what they have built and allowed criminals to control our lives and regulate our freedom, now it's time to take that all back.......AND SOON!

    P.S. Solyent Green was a Great Movie, a must see classic for those you haven't seen it!

  2. Great article! This is the kind of news we need to make more widely known. People aren't drawn to NS by "race" they are drawn to it by bullshit like this food bill.

    Fair dues. I got this from AnsweringTheCall. It's absolutely chilling to think what they do with the food we put in our bodies. Since some have been aware of this for some time, now the government is doing something about it. They are beginning to eliminate what few healthy alternatives we have.

    You know what rally gets me? When we do develop health problems because of our eating habits, they have the bloody gall to place all the blame on us! It's all our fault because we don't know how to properly eat. I'll admit some of it is our fault, but not all of it.

  4. organic and healthy food will soon be a thing of the past, the whole nation will begin to look like my hispanic majority high school were the cafeteria food is all greased up and artificially processed and loaded with chemicals that make you feel tired and can cause cancer, and I have to eat this garbage everyday because bringing your own lunch to school poses a national security threat.......im serious. I live in miami florida and not one of these creatures around me even wonder why every lunch hour there is a jet plane leaving chemtrails there to worried about when lil wayne is getting out of prison lol.

  5. I think the ANP can make better progress if they make new downloadable flyers based on this blogs content, also I think it would help if the picture on the ANPs website was changed to something else, a swastika with the words white power on it can most likely turn many white americans away.

    The "officers" of the ANP can only do so much. We need the rest of YOU to help pull the weight. So take your good idea of making new flyers...and Do It! We would sincerely appreciate it.

    You asked for it, you got it Comrade Axl. I'll make some new fliers ASAP.

    Also to 12:59: I understand what you mean about the Swastika. Even Commander Rockwell thought about not using it for a moment. However, he decided that to abandon the Swastika would be an attempt to disguise who and what we are, and felt that was unacceptable.

    Maybe you'll change your mind when you see my next video, "The Origin And Meaning Of The Swastika." I'll be releasing it somewhere between one week, and Christmas.

  8. well I dont mean getting rid of the swastika but that picture can look a little abrasive, I suggest the eagle standing on top of the swastika.

    Now that suggestion I do like. I'll see what I can come up with. Considering the picture of the mountains in my banner, an eagle would be very appropriate. Thanks comrade. Give me a few days.
