What this will do is force anyone who produces food of any kind, and then transports it to a different location for sale, to register with a new federal agency called the “Food Safety Administration.” Even growers who sell just fruit and/or vegetables at farmers markets would not only have to register, but they would be subject inspections by federal agents of their property and all records related to food production.

Obama's idea of Hell is a society in which we don't brush up against some government official at least three times every day.
Government should be a constant daily presence in our lives, checking on us and approving us and correcting us as needed to keep us thinking correctly, regulating every aspect of interaction and commerce to make sure the wrong sorts don't take advantage of the right sorts, and reminding us that the right sorts have already determined what "correct thought" means, and no, sorry, that was a closed meeting.

I thought I'd try my hand at growing veggies for the farmer's market and by selling my chicken's eggs. ... Are they even going to let me eat my own eggs and produce?
And I was going to start a garden this spring. Oh, well.
