What The S 510 Food Modernization Act Might Mean To You

Do we really need our food to be modernized?

I can certainly say I am not excited about the passing of this bill, I do not believe there is a need for it, nor do I believe it will provide a benefit to our society, and more importantly will result declining health, increasing food shortages, as well as increasing prices.

Have we not learned yet that the FDA can make bad decisions in what is deemed safe and effective through their approval of drugs and chemical food products such as artificial sweeteners like aspartame? Results speak for themself.

I think what we define as 'food' is constantly being diluted to more of a 'franken food' designation.

With CODEX constantly looming on the horizon, this food bill has been passed without any problem, which many believe will give control of all food product and supply into the hands of multi-national corporations.

Yes, the same corporations pushing genetically modified foods down our throats which if you look at the science (and not talking head propaganda and B.S.) one cannot honestly say are safe.

I am all for capitalism...in a fare and free trade. And one could guess this is about more than just the mighty dollar.

And what about the farmers? I live in an area ripe with family farms, and where they have undergone numerous challenges over the years...this is icing on the cake.

Looking ahead, I can only predict what we might be seeing.

Financial challenges for the family farms to continue to operate.
Shortages in foods on our grocery store shelves.
Increasing prices of foods at the check out.

Is this really what we need?

I'm just saying.
