BBQ – Memorial Day BBQ Party For Grilling Steaks & Baby Back Ribs
(I-Newswire) may 25, 2010 - If past Memorial Day celebrations are any indication of this Memorial Day 2010 weekend, families will be heading to the store to buy charcoal, or filling up their propane tanks and cleaning their gas grills.
But before you make that trip to the store for your barbeque supplies, make sure to take a minute to plan ahead for your event.
Whether you plan on serving American-Southern style barbecue or Kansas City-style bbq, your next party will be a outdoor cooking extravaganza if you'll take the time to carefully plan for everything you need.
Barbecue grills need attention, especially if this weekend will be the first time you fire up the grill this season. whether you will be cooking and serving beef, pork, grilled chicken, turkey, or any other bbq food, it's important to make sure you take the time to thoroughly clean your gas or electric grill before cooking foods, smothered in bbq sauce and simmered to that delicious smoky flavor.
The USDA food safety handouts advise you to be careful not to cross contaminate your meat when placing steaks, chicken, or pork onto your grill. always make sure to cook the meat to the proper temperature.
After all, nobody wants to come for entertainment, and have to leave friends after dinner because of becoming ill from food served. Also, make sure to clean the grill parts before placing meat onto the cooking surface, and allow the charcoal grill or propane grill to heat up to kill any germs left behind.
Now that you're ready to capture all the flavors in your bbq gas grill, it's time to check for all the ingredients you'll need to serve up that delicious bowl of chicken salad or potato salad. You'll want to take a minute to head to the kitchen and dig out your favorite recipes from the recipe box.
Finally, you'll want to double check you have the foods and meats you need for any appetizers or side dishes you plan to serve to your guests with the bbq, including with any paper plates, Styrofoam cups, and any other condiments you'll need to turn your backyard into a "home style restaurant". Of course, if you
forget anything that you'll need for the menu, you can always have your family and friends pick it up really quick before coming over to the party.
Memorial Day weekend 2010 is a great time for bbq grilling, slow cooking your meat in zesty barbecue sauce over that homemade fire pit, and if you live in the South, sitting around the smoker with friends, drinking an ice cold glass of sweet tea.
Come next weekend, everyone will be giving rave reviews about the best bbq event of the season.

Codex Alimentarius Threatens Human Health
by Stephen Lendman
Monday, 24 August 2009
If CA's proposed standards and guidelines are adopted, they'll establish binding global rules, effectively overriding sovereign national laws. GMO foods and drugs will proliferate. Labeling will be banned. Food and drug giants will decide what will and won't be sold.
On its web site, CA (Latin for food code) says:
“The Codex Alimentarius Commission was created in 1963 by the FAO (Food and Agricultural Organization of the UN) and WHO (World Health Organization) to develop food standards, guidelines and related texts such as codes of practice under the Joint FAO/WHO Food Standards Programme. The main purposes of this Programme are protecting health of the consumers and ensuring fair trade practices in the food trade, and promoting coordination of all food standards work undertaken by international governmental and non-governmental organizations.”
Whatever its founding purpose, CA is much different today because corporate interests control it – global pharmaceutical, food, and banking giants in league with complicit UN and government agencies to promote GMOs over healthy foods, and drugs over natural remedies by restricting or banning vitamin and dietary supplements, except ones they control. Organic food as well by irradiation and hidden synthetic additives or ingredients.
If CA's standards and guidelines are adopted, they'll establish binding global rules, effectively overriding sovereign national laws. GMO foods and drugs will proliferate. Labeling will be banned. Food and drug giants will decide what will and won't be sold. Governments will be prohibited from countermanding them. Everyone's health and well-being will be jeopardized.
Since its 2004 founding, the Natural Solutions Foundation has been involved in “discover(ing), develop(ing), demonstrat(ing) and disseminat(ing) natural solutions to the problems facing us and threatening our health and freedom.” Its goal is “to support advanced healthcare and health freedom” globally, not a system promoting corporate interests at the expense of human health and well-being.
It explains that CA has “absolutely nothing to do with consumer protection.” It's a corporate-run “Trade Commission” created to control “every aspect of how food and nutritional supplements are produced and sold to the consumer.” It's about profits, not human health. It wants to ban natural remedies and promote unsafe drugs. It's “unscientific because it classifies nutrients as toxins and uses 'Risk Assessment' to set ultra low so-called 'safe upper limits' for them.” It wants to prohibit everything not explicitly permitted and controlled by them.
Under the 1986 – 1993 GATT Uruguay Round, its 110 member countries agreed to harmonize their domestic laws to conform to international standards. In January 1995, the WTO replaced GATT, and as of July 2008, its membership included 153 nations.
Its Agreement on Technical Barriers to Trade was established “to ensure that regulations, standards, testing and certification procedures do not create unnecessary obstacles. It specifically refers to:
• ….”the important contributions that international standards and conformity assessment systems can make….by improving efficiency of production and facilitating the conduct of international trade….;” and
• the importance of “develop(ing) such international standards and conformity assessment systems.”
It states that “Members are fully responsible under this Agreement for the observance of all provisions of Article 2″ – pertaining to the “Preparation, Adoption and Application of Technical Regulations by Central Government Bodies;” under them, “Members shall formulate and implement positive measures and mechanisms in support of the observance of (Article 2's) provisions by other than central government bodies.”
This means that WTO members are legally bound under global guidelines, including CA standards if adopted, that override currently in force national laws. Under WTO rules, failure to comply may bring punitive fines or crippling trade sanctions.
At its July 2005 session, the Codex Committee on Nutrition and Foods for Special Dietary Uses (CCNFSDU), drew up guidelines that set restrictive upper dosage limits on popularly used vitamin and mineral supplements and nutrients. They prohibit the sale of all curative, preventative, and therapeutic supplements without a doctor's prescription, most now accessible over-the-counter at health food, other stores, or by mail order.
Twenty-six other committees are tasked with setting global standards for different areas of the global food and drug trade, including:
• fruits and vegetables;
• fruit and vegetable juices;
• fats and oils;
• meat, poultry and fish;
• cereals, pulses (used for food and animal feed) and legumes;
• milk and milk products;
• natural mineral waters;
• sugars;
• cocoa products and chocolate;
• food hygiene;
• food labeling (as a way not to disclose GMO foods and ingredients)
• pesticide residues;
• residues of veterinary drugs found in foods;
• food additives;
• regional coordination, and more.
Codex standards are binding on all WTO members under its Agreement on the Application of Sanitary and Phytosanitary Measures and the Agreement on Technical Barriers to Trade. Both were included among the Multilateral Agreements on Trade in Goods that was part of the 1994 Marrakesh Agreement that established the WTO.
Currently, it says that “there is no legal obligation on Members to apply Codex standards, guidelines and recommendations.” In fact, the WTO uses them to resolve international trade disputes that are legally binding on all members.
On December 31, 2009, Codex standards will be globally mandated unless legal challenges prevent it. In force, they'll override food and drug laws of all member countries, including consumer protection ones and America's 1994 Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act (DSHEA). It classifies nutrients and herbs as foods, sets no dosage limits, and permits the sale of all dietary supplements unless expressly proved unsafe. Codex rules reverse things by prohibiting everything NOT proved safe, including high potency, therapeutically effective nutrients and supplements.
Common foods, herbs, nutrients, amino acids, homeopathic and other natural remedies would be called drugs. Potencies would be limited, and prescriptions would be required for their use. Some would be banned altogether.
In contrast, about 300 dangerous food additives will be allowed, including aspartame, BHA, BHT, potassium bromate, and tartrazine. New guidelines will authorize the worldwide proliferation of unlabeled GMO foods, drugs, and ingredients, known to harm human health.
In addition:
• dangerous high-potency industrial chemicals, pesticides, and fungicides will be allowed, ones now near-universally banned, including aldrin, hexachlorobenzene and toxaphene;
• growth hormones for cows will be mandated;
• antibiotics as well for all “food herds, fish and flocks;”
• irradiation will be required for all foods not locally grown and sold raw and unprocessed; and
• new standards will permit dangerous toxic levels (0.5 ppb) of aflotoxin in milk produced from moldy storage conditions of animal feed; aflotoxin is one of most potent carcinogenic compounds known.
In addition, professional written, oral or other nutritional advice will be banned, including about the benefits of vitamins, minerals, nutrients and other health-promoting substances. Henceforth, they'll be considered toxins or poisons to be removed from food because Codex will prohibit their use to “prevent, treat or cure any condition or disease.”
In America before the 1996 Food Quality and Protection Act passed, the 1958 Delaney Clause prohibited use of known carcinogens in processed foods. It specifically said:
“the Secretary of the Food and Drug Administration shall not approve for use in food any chemical additive found to induce cancer in man, or, after tests, found to induce cancer in animals.”
It protected against unsafe food additives, meat and poultry drugs, color additives, and cancer-causing pesticide residues in processed foods above a certain level.
Obama's Enforcers
On July 23, Obama appointed Monsanto vice-president and lobbyist Michael Taylor as food safety czar – the man Jeffrey Smith, author and leading GMO foods critic, called “The person who may be responsible for more food-related illnesses and death than anyone in history….This is no joke….What have we done?”
At FDA in the early 1990s, Taylor headed policy over letting Monsanto's GM bovine growth hormone (rBGH) be injected into cows to increase milk supply despite the known health dangers. He also kept containers from being labeled to warn consumers. Europe, Canada, Australia and New Zealand banned the drug because of the significant cancer and other risks.
Taylor also got the FDA to treat genetically modified foods and ingredients as “substantially equivalent” to natural ones, so no testing was required for safety. Ever since in America and many other countries, GM foods have proliferated despite reliable evidence of their harm to human health.
Rumored to become USDA's food safety head is Dennis Wolff – an rBGH-using dairy farmer and Pennsylvania Agriculture Secretary. Wolff spearheaded state legislation to ban rNGH-free labeling so consumers could choose safe milk over contaminated brands. He partially succeeded when governor Ed Rendell balked but allowed an FDA disclaimer on containers regarding bovine growth hormone's safety.
Operation Cure All
A June 14, 2001 FTC press release headlined “Operation Cure All Wages New Battle in Ongoing War Against Internet Health Fraud.” It cited a 1997 initiated law enforcement and consumer education campaign in announcing new actions against “the fraudulent marketing of supplements and other health products on the Internet” targeting dietary supplements, herbal products, and various other “questionable” substances. The FDA claimed (without evidence) that “unscrupulous marketers (were selling to) the sickest and most vulnerable consumers.” To the general public as well that relies on them as essential nutrients and natural remedies that are far more effective, safer, and vastly cheaper than dangerous overpriced drugs.
At stake isn't consumer safety. It's protecting drug company profits by eliminating competition. It's about removing safe alternatives, natural therapies, and information about them. It's to empower drug giants and approve only their products for sale. It's to establish standards they alone write; to pave the way for mass-marketing of genetically modified foods and drugs. It's a stepping stone toward mandated harmful global Codex rules.
Codex Alimentarius – A Sinister Scheme for Profit at the Expense of Human Health
Empowering Ag and drug giants through CA poses an unacceptable danger to humanity as Dr. Rima Laibow, Medical Director of the Natural Solutions Foundation, explains:
• it will replace “safe upper (nutrient) limits with junk science;”
• reduce them to useless levels; and
• call essential-to-life and well-being nutrient levels toxic or poisonous.
Adequate nutrient levels are vital to:
“…health and longevity. Nutrients are essential components of enzyme function in the human body and enzymes are the very stuff of life because they carry out every biological process in your body. Without enzymes, nothing would happen. Literally.”
“There would be no digestion, no growth, no detoxification….no life. At any moment, approximately 35,000 enzymatic reactions are occurring in every cell in your body. Nutrients feed and support enzymatic action and that's why they are so crucial to health.”
At optimum levels, they produce optimum health. At impaired levels, symptoms. At unhealthy levels, illness, and “No enzymatic action = death.” Varying human nutrient needs depend on “genetic diversity and requirement, diet, climate and energy output, toxic load (from food, water, air, and skin absorption), underlying nutritional deficits, (and all types of) diseases and stress.” In sum, it's called “Biological Individuality – a concept “totally absent from the philosophy of Codex Alimentarius.”
CA is pseudo-science for profit at the expense of human health. Legal challenges have five months left to stop them.
According to Laibow, there is no “scientifically measurable 'upper limit' for nutrients” because their potential toxicity is “astonishingly low” even though at times “more is not necessarily better.” DSHEA prohibits nutrient upper limits because they're foods, not drugs. “Scientifically, DSHEA is right on the mark.” CA is pseudo-science for profit at the expense of human health. Legal challenges have five months left to stop them.

Big Food vs. Big Insurance
By MICHAEL POLLAN
Berkeley, Calif.
TO listen to President Obama’s speech on Wednesday night, or to just about anyone else in the health care debate, you would think that the biggest problem with health care in America is the system itself — perverse incentives, inefficiencies, unnecessary tests and procedures, lack of competition, and greed.
No one disputes that the $2.3 trillion we devote to the health care industry is often spent unwisely, but the fact that the United States spends twice as much per person as most European countries on health care can be substantially explained, as a study released last month says, by our being fatter. Even the most efficient health care system that the administration could hope to devise would still confront a rising tide of chronic disease linked to diet.
That’s why our success in bringing health care costs under control ultimately depends on whether Washington can summon the political will to take on and reform a second, even more powerful industry: the food industry.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, three-quarters of health care spending now goes to treat “preventable chronic diseases.” Not all of these diseases are linked to diet — there’s smoking, for instance — but many, if not most, of them are.
We’re spending $147 billion to treat obesity, $116 billion to treat diabetes, and hundreds of billions more to treat cardiovascular disease and the many types of cancer that have been linked to the so-called Western diet. One recent study estimated that 30 percent of the increase in health care spending over the past 20 years could be attributed to the soaring rate of obesity, a condition that now accounts for nearly a tenth of all spending on health care.
The American way of eating has become the elephant in the room in the debate over health care. The president has made a few notable allusions to it, and, by planting her vegetable garden on the South Lawn, Michelle Obama has tried to focus our attention on it. Just last month, Mr. Obama talked about putting a farmers’ market in front of the White House, and building new distribution networks to connect local farmers to public schools so that student lunches might offer more fresh produce and fewer Tater Tots. He’s even floated the idea of taxing soda.
But so far, food system reform has not figured in the national conversation about health care reform. And so the government is poised to go on encouraging America’s fast-food diet with its farm policies even as it takes on added responsibilities for covering the medical costs of that diet. To put it more bluntly, the government is putting itself in the uncomfortable position of subsidizing both the costs of treating Type 2 diabetes and the consumption of high-fructose corn syrup.
Why the disconnect? Probably because reforming the food system is politically even more difficult than reforming the health care system. At least in the health care battle, the administration can count some powerful corporate interests on its side — like the large segment of the Fortune 500 that has concluded the current system is unsustainable.
That is hardly the case when it comes to challenging agribusiness. Cheap food is going to be popular as long as the social and environmental costs of that food are charged to the future. There’s lots of money to be made selling fast food and then treating the diseases that fast food causes. One of the leading products of the American food industry has become patients for the American health care industry.
The market for prescription drugs and medical devices to manage Type 2 diabetes, which the Centers for Disease Control estimates will afflict one in three Americans born after 2000, is one of the brighter spots in the American economy. As things stand, the health care industry finds it more profitable to treat chronic diseases than to prevent them. There’s more money in amputating the limbs of diabetics than in counseling them on diet and exercise.
As for the insurers, you would think preventing chronic diseases would be good business, but, at least under the current rules, it’s much better business simply to keep patients at risk for chronic disease out of your pool of customers, whether through lifetime caps on coverage or rules against pre-existing conditions or by figuring out ways to toss patients overboard when they become ill.
But these rules may well be about to change — and, when it comes to reforming the American diet and food system, that step alone could be a game changer. Even under the weaker versions of health care reform now on offer, health insurers would be required to take everyone at the same rates, provide a standard level of coverage and keep people on their rolls regardless of their health. Terms like “pre-existing conditions” and “underwriting” would vanish from the health insurance rulebook — and, when they do, the relationship between the health insurance industry and the food industry will undergo a sea change.
The moment these new rules take effect, health insurance companies will promptly discover they have a powerful interest in reducing rates of obesity and chronic diseases linked to diet. A patient with Type 2 diabetes incurs additional health care costs of more than $6,600 a year; over a lifetime, that can come to more than $400,000. Insurers will quickly figure out that every case of Type 2 diabetes they can prevent adds $400,000 to their bottom line. Suddenly, every can of soda or Happy Meal or chicken nugget on a school lunch menu will look like a threat to future profits.
When health insurers can no longer evade much of the cost of treating the collateral damage of the American diet, the movement to reform the food system — everything from farm policy to food marketing and school lunches — will acquire a powerful and wealthy ally, something it hasn’t really ever had before.
AGRIBUSINESS dominates the agriculture committees of Congress, and has swatted away most efforts at reform. But what happens when the health insurance industry realizes that our system of farm subsidies makes junk food cheap, and fresh produce dear, and thus contributes to obesity and Type 2 diabetes? It will promptly get involved in the fight over the farm bill — which is to say, the industry will begin buying seats on those agriculture committees and demanding that the next bill be written with the interests of the public health more firmly in mind.
In the same way much of the health insurance industry threw its weight behind the campaign against smoking, we can expect it to support, and perhaps even help pay for, public education efforts like New York City’s bold new ad campaign against drinking soda. At the moment, a federal campaign to discourage the consumption of sweetened soft drinks is a political nonstarter, but few things could do more to slow the rise of Type 2 diabetes among adolescents than to reduce their soda consumption, which represents 15 percent of their caloric intake.
That’s why it’s easy to imagine the industry throwing its weight behind a soda tax. School lunch reform would become its cause, too, and in time the industry would come to see that the development of regional food systems, which make fresh produce more available and reduce dependence on heavily processed food from far away, could help prevent chronic disease and reduce their costs.
Recently a team of designers from M.I.T. and Columbia was asked by the foundation of the insurer UnitedHealthcare to develop an innovative systems approach to tackling childhood obesity in America. Their conclusion surprised the designers as much as their sponsor: they determined that promoting the concept of a “foodshed” — a diversified, regional food economy — could be the key to improving the American diet.
All of which suggests that passing a health care reform bill, no matter how ambitious, is only the first step in solving our health care crisis. To keep from bankrupting ourselves, we will then have to get to work on improving our health — which means going to work on the American way of eating.
But even if we get a health care bill that does little more than require insurers to cover everyone on the same basis, it could put us on that course.
For it will force the industry, and the government, to take a good hard look at the elephant in the room and galvanize a movement to slim it down.
Michael Pollan, a contributing writer for The Times Magazine and a professor of journalism at the University of California, Berkeley, is the author of “In Defense of Food: An Eater’s Manifesto.”
Tobacco isn’t related to explosives? Clearly you haven’t been watching enough cartoons.
(skip to the 6:00 mark).
You’re right, the U.S. food safety apparatus is highly balkanized. In addition to the agencies you named, you could add the EPA (responsible for agricultural pesticides), the National Marine Fisheries Service (responsible for seafood facilities) and several others, not to mention state and local agencies. And of course Customs plays a role for imported foods. Some of the divisions in authority between different agencies are quite complex. For instance, the safety and purity of drinking water is the EPA’s job, but bottled water falls under the FDA’s umbrella. Alcohol and tobacco regulation is also bifurcated: the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives as you mentioned regulates alcohol and tobacco, but not the labeling of such products – that’s the job of the totally separate Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau. (Contrast with the FDA, which is responsible for the safety and labeling of food products, although not the advertising of food products; that’s the FTC’s job). There’ll be a quiz on this at the end of my post.
Some of the divisions are arbitrary; others are not, at least in theory. The FDA at one time was part of the USDA. It was spun off (eventually to land in Health & Human Services) because of concerns over a conflict of interest between the USDA’s food safety role on one hand and its role in promoting agriculture on the other. But then the USDA retained its oversight over meat and poultry, so I suppose the conflict or appearance thereof didn’t totally dissipate.
There have been efforts to consolidate food safety programs into a single federal agency. The National Academy of Sciences urged Congress to do so in the late 1990’s. A council called by President Clinton rejected the suggestion. Arguments have continued to be made in favor of consolidation since then. The counterargument tends to be the massive cost that such a reorganization would entail, and that food safety would be compromised during the lengthy transition period. These aren’t frivolous concerns, by any stretch. And then there’s the argument that in and of itself, arbitrariness may not be bad, so long as each agency does its job well. But, no question, inertia is a major justification for the current setup. There are definite inefficiencies in so many overlapping agencies. If the system were to be built from scratch today, it’d look quite different from what we have currently.
As for tobacco, one could extrapolate the heroin argument to tobacco: ideally, no one should be using it either. And I think there’s a legitimate worry that the FDA will regulate tobacco to the verge of heroin status, i.e. illegality. For efficiency’s sake, I think it makes sense to bring tobacco under the FDA’s watch. But given that smoking rates have been steadily plummeting, and that nobody is unaware of the deleterious health consequences associated, I question the need for overly onerous new regulations.
The USDA Food Safety Joke On Us -
I jus want my baby back …… ribs
Did some baby back ribs..a slab a spare ribs..n had some potato salad..#goodeating
“…Not surprising – when have they ever learned from facts??? When your whole thought process is ideologically driven, facts are no consequence.”
Unfortunately the Democratic party is not ideologically driven, they are a Trojan horse that is money driven by the big corporate cartels. Corporations WANT regulations THEY control through puppets heading the government agencies and that stiffle competition. The upper echelon of the left uses the ideology as a cover to support their drive towards corporatism.
Here is an example:
Clinton, Food and the World Trade Organization: (The repercussions of this are seen in world wide bankrupting of farmers and consolidation of the food supply)
The IPC (International Policy Council on Agriculture, Food and Trade) was created in 1987 explicitly to drive home the GATT agriculture rules of WTO at Uruguay talks and to push international food and Ag regs
These are the people who worked for Clinton during that time:
Ann Veneman employed by Monsanto (Calgene), lead the GATT trade delegation and is an IPC Member Emeritus. She also worked for Patten Bogg “We were among the first law firms to recognize that all three branches of government could serve as forums in which to achieve client goals, enabling us to emerge as the nation’s leading public policy law firm, and we have developed our extensive business law capabilities into the firm’s largest practice area.” Patton Boggs
Mickey Kantor US trade representative (USTR) for the Uruguay Round of negotiations, became a Monsanto board member.
Robert Shapiro, chairman of Monsanto, was lead advisor for Clinton's Committee for Trade Policy and Negotiations when WTO was ratified in 1995.
Marcia Hale, a former assistant to President Clinton and director for intergovernmental affairs, was director of international government affairs for Monsanto.
Dan Amstutz VP of Cargill wrote the draft “WTO Agreement on Ag.” as a US trade representative. He also wrote the “Freedom to Farm Act of 1996” that did away with US food reserves and removed over production controls on grains. Cargill then exported these tax susidized grains to third world countries. They were sold below production cost, bankrupting local farmers
What was IPC pushing??
“Measures to trace animals…to provide assurances on…safety ..have been incorporated into international standards… The Agreement on the Application of Sanitary and Phytosanitary Measures…Aims to ensure that governments DO NOT USE QUARANTINE AND FOOD SAFETY REQUIREMENTS as Unjustified trade barriers… It provides Member countries with a right to implement traceability {NAIS} as an SPS measure.”
“Development of risk-based systems [HACCP] has been heavily influenced by the WTO Agreement on the Application of Sanitary and Phytosanitary Measures ” OIE report Oct 2008
In 1993, International HACCP guidelines were developed by the Codex Alimentarius, a joint Programme of FAO & WHO. FAO This system replaced US food regs in 1996. (HACCP & open borders account for the increase in tainted food)
September 2008 FDA on International Harmonization:
“Failure to reach a consistent, harmonized set of laws, regulations and standards within the free trade agreements and the World Trade Organization Agreements can result in considerable economic repercussions.” FDA:
Want more connections?
January 2005: Guide to Good Farming Practices: From Report of the Meeting of the OIE (Paris, 17-28 January 2005) OIE:
Once The Guide to Good Farming Practices was written, we get the bill: Safe and Secure Food Act of 2005:
Also in 1995, USDA's Food Safety & Inspection Service wrote a 600 pg Doc “Farm-To-Table – control of every step in the food chain from production to home preparation.”
Now that the Democrats are back in power in the USA we get over a half dozen bill introduced into Congress to complete the take over of the food supply by the corporations. Then there is the bio-fuel scam that allowed Cargill and Monsanto to reap record profits in 2008 when the price of grains were doubled and tripled. (Also caused food riots in third world countries who no longer had native farmers to grow their own food)
“Ten corporations now control nearly every aspect of the world's food chain. Four control 90 per cent of the world's exports of corn, wheat, tobacco, tea, …”
Kissinger put it bluntly “Control oil and you control nations; control food and you control the people.” And that is what we are seeing today. It is no coincidence that Congressman Waxman sponsored both Cap and Trade and a food control bill designed to bankrupt farmers.
This bit of information is very good for waking up the progressives and socialists to what the upper echelon of the left is actually up to. AGW causes heated debates but the threat to the world wide food supply opens eyes.]]>
