Government wants more control of food production (house, gardens)

[ozarksboy]

One of the internet seed-swapping groups my wife belongs to had a post this week about House Bill 875, a bill in the House of Representatives that potentially would regulate gardening.
"House Bill 875, which is sponsored by Representative Rosa DeLauro (D-CT), seeks to reduce or eliminate the danger of distance by establishing a new federal Food Safety Administration (FSA) that would superintend and regulate all food production facilities, from the smallest farms to the biggest processors. In other words, HB 875 would give the federal government dictatorial authority over the entire food chain of the USA.HB 875 and its Food Safety Administration (FSA)," the post said.

If you Google HB875 this is what you get.
The Tulsa World has a media scoffer who pooh-poohs the worry about this bill, says our food production system needs revamping and control and believes the government is on our side and is capable of fixing the so-called problem.
