[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Did you guys see that there is arsenic in rice cereal? INFANT RICE CEREAL? And that US rice has the highest arsenic levels in the world? It's all in the article. there was also lead found in juice and other foods that infants eat.

PEOPLE, this is why we need STRONG environmental and food regulations! DO NOT LET THOSE Republicans convince you we do not need the EPA, and govt regulations. WIthout regulations the big corporations would have us all poisoned to death with pesticides, herbicides, chemicals and environmental toxins in 50 years.[/quote]

umm if anything it proves that the Republicans are correct that private industries are able to function and get things done better than the government agencies. It is consumerreports that has brought the issue up NOT the FDA, if anything the FDA is down playing it. If there was a contest to see who is better FDA vs Private Agencies this proves yet again that when there is a consumer demand, people are willing to pay for it a private company will outperform a government slow moving beurocratic agency or program.[/quote]

Republicans have worked [i]very[/i] hard at weakening many regulatory agencies, including the FDA. We do in fact need federal oversight of our food and drugs - but with some actual teeth. [/quote]
