Lebensmittel Terror

Der Lebensmittel Terror, wie er sich in der unten erklärten Gesetzesvorlage darstellt, gleicht zunehmend dem Terror des Betäubungsmittelgesetzes:

Senate Bill S 510 Food Safety Modernization Act vote imminent: Would outlaw gardening and saving seeds
Senate Bill 510, the Food Safety Modernization Act, has been called "the most dangerous bill in the history of the United States of America." It would grant the U.S. government new authority over the public's right to grow, trade and transport any foods. This would give Big brother the power to regulate the tomato plants in your backyard. It would grant them the power to arrest and imprison people selling cucumbers at farmer's markets. It would criminalize the transporting of organic produce if you don't comply with the authoritarian rules of the federal government.

"It will become the most offensive authority against the cultivation, trade and consumption of food and agricultural products of one's choice. It will be unconstitutional and contrary to natural law or, if you like, the will of God." - Dr. Shiv Chopra, Canada Health whistleblower

This tyrannical law puts all food production (yes, even food produced in your own garden) under the authority of the Department of Homeland Security. Yep -- the very same people running the TSA and its naked body scanner / passenger groping programs.

This law would also give the U.S. government the power to arrest any backyard food producer as a felon (a "smuggler") for merely growing lettuce and selling it at a local farmer's market.

It also sells out U.S. sovereignty over our own food supply by ceding to the authority of both the World Trade Organization (WTO) and Codex Alimentarius.

It would criminalize seed saving, turning backyard gardeners who save heirloom seeds into common criminals. This is obviously designed to give corporations like Monsanto a monopoly over seeds.

It would create an unreasonable paperwork burden that would put small food producers out of business, resulting in more power over the food supply shifting to large multinational corporations.

I encourage you to read more about this dangerous bill at the Food Freedom blog on Wordpress and watch this excellent video on NaturalNews.TV which explains S.510 in more detail.

Wie auch der offizielle Terror, der angebliche moslemische Terror, vom Staate ausgeht, so geht auch diese Terrorverordnungen vom Staat aus, die uns die freie Wahl der Lebensmittel rauben soll.

Senate Bill 510: The Declaration Of Dependence
The Senate Bill 510, or as its curiously referred to, the “Food Safety Modernization Act” is scheduled to see a vote as early as today (Wednesday November the 17th). However the bill is not as harmless as it may seem based on its name alone. If given the green light this bill will effectively and exclusively place the right to grow, trade, transport and share food firmly in the grasp of the Federal Government. In very real terms the passage of this bill amounts to the signing of the Declaration of Dependence.

Imagine a country where the simple act of selling/purchasing fresh and locally grown produce will be a criminal act, simply because the food was not subject to federal oversight. The broad terms of the bill quite clearly cover all food production and its distribution, even between individuals. Under this auspice you may be in violation of the law simply by sharing a 100% homemade holiday fruitcake with your neighbor. Which depending on the quality of the fruitcake, should be against the law anyway, though not punishable by hefty fines or prison time.
If this atrocious bill is passed don’t expect to see SWAT teams waiting outside every organic farm waiting to toss a flash-bang grenade. Modern tyranny most often comes first in the form of a suit knocking at your door and demanding to see your licenses and documentation. And that is precisely what this bill outlines. Exhaustive records must be kept for anyone producing food, which will place growing, production and sale of food outside the reach of the average small time operation. Just think back to the Oregon Lemonade stand that was shut down by Health Inspectors.

The restraints placed on local farms, food co-ops and farmers markets will destroy whats left of independent agriculture. A wise move in the midst of the Great Recession. Without the freedom to strive for self sufficiency, a god given right endowed to all creatures, we are left only one option. Dependence. The forced symbiosis to factory farms, process plants and the GMO mafia, without so much as the freedom to store and save seeds.
If the Federal Government wants to talk about safety perhaps they should first consider the precarious stumbling of the world economy and the ABSOLUTE necessity for the greatest number of people being self sufficient, should a catastrophic economic collapse occur. Is it wise to dismantle our long history of independent agriculture, when our already overwhelmed system is possibly drawing its final breaths? Even the largest, most expansive and well paid bureaucracy won’t be able to keep the food on our plates, let alone theirs if the wheels of industry and commerce come to a sudden halt. Therein lies the greater potential for loss of life than e.coli enriched eggs and tainted tomatoes.

Americans will be entirely at the whim of their “superiors” to authorize resources that are as fundamental to life as air. Our lives and our well being will be beholden to a corporate bureaucracy known as the FDA, and under ultimate authority of the Department of Homeland Security. The drafters of the bill claim that the intentions of its mandate have not been written to benefit Mega-Corporations or Lobbies. But the revolving door between Monsanto and the FDA has been in the news for years. More of this bill’s history and consequences can be found here.
Can we hope that our representatives have looked further than the rosy name of the bill to examine the extent of its contents? If the past is any indication we cannot assume they will. Today I urge you to Email, Fax or Call your Senators and politely yet firmly demand they not allow this deplorable declaration to pass.

Then, should it succeed we ALL must orderly disobey these slights to our personal freedom, and as a matter of principal take up, teach and encourage the ancient practice of community agriculture in whatever capacity available. Be it with a 1/2 acer plot or purchasing your first Topsy Turvy. We cannot be overcome by unjust laws if we overwhelm the enforcers by making popular the action of breaking those very laws.

The new Food Tyranny Act — called the “Food Safety Modernization Act” in the U.S. Senate — has been passed by the senate today. It would give the FDA vast ew powers to criminalize and imprison farmers and food producers while doing absolutely nothing to address to real root of the food contamination problem: Factory animal farm operations (which are regulated under the USDA, not the FDA).

The bill passed 73 to 25, with Sen Tom Coburn (R-Oklahoma) emerging as the greatest “voice of reason” in the debate. His last-ditch amendment to reduce the scale of the bill was defeated this morning.

Here’s the official vote record: http://www.senate.gov/legislative/L…

Notably, there wasn’t a single Democrat who opposed the bill.

This bill, as originally written, would have outlawed most nutritional supplements through “harmonization” with European laws. It also would have authorized ten-year prison sentences for farmers selling raw milk to their neighbors. Both of those provisions were eventually stripped out of the bill thanks to some last-minute amendments, but it gives you an idea of the outright police state mentality of the original bill authors who attempted to put in place complete government control over food, gardens, raw milk and more.

To give you an idea of how clueless U.S. Senators are about food, the New York Times is reporting that when Senate staff members met to discuss this bill, they would eat Starburst candies and jellybeans. As the NYT reports, “In the midst of negotiations, the negotiators — nearly all women — took a field trip to a nearby food market so that a Republican staff member could teach the Democrats how to buy high-quality steaks.”

So what we have here is a new food tyranny law that was essentially negotiated by a group of women who eat dead foods, animals products and candy.

No wonder they still don’t get it. The contamination of lettuce and other fresh produce is caused by factory animals farms, not by produce farms. (E.coli can only thrive in the digestive tracts of animals, not plants.)

The “small farms” exclusion will soon be meaningless

The Tester Amendment of the bill did manage to exclude some smaller farmers from the more tyrannical provisions of the bill. As currently stated, this would exclude small farms that sell less than $500,000 worth of food and which sell most of their food locally.

However, Senators failed to consider what’s going to happen when the Federal Reserve keeps printing counterfeit money, devaluing the dollar and causing massive food price inflation. A farm that right now produces merely $100,000 worth of food (which could be a small, two-person farm) will soon find itself producing $500,000 worth of food (or more) due to the rapidly falling value of the U.S. dollar.

This is how the Federal Reserve’s money counterfeiting actions will further destroy America and place small family farms under the tyranny of the FDA.

What’s next: Defeat the bill in committee

The Senate version of the bill must now be reconciled with the House version that was passed last year. This reconciliation committee must hammer out the differences between the two bills.

Democrats are urgently rushing to do this during their “lame duck” session in order to avoid more Republicans getting involved who would seek to scale back the power and size of the federal government.

Some House Democrats are even suggesting they would support passing the Senate version of the bill as it is written, without requiring any changes whatsoever, just to rush it through before the end of the year. NaturalNews and other health freedom organizations intend to fight this effort, hoping to stall the bill until the new Congress can enter the picture and hopefully interject some common sense into the negotiations.

If signed into law by the President (who is sure to sign it), this Food Safety Bill would provide yet more power and funding to one of the most dangerous monsters our nation has ever known: The FDA. This is the agency responsible for the death of more Americans than all the wars our nation has ever been involved with — combined! (http://www.naturalnews.com/030461_Senate_Bill_510_Food_Safety.html )

The idea that we’re going to save a few lives from food poisoning while subjecting everyone to yet another layer of Big Government tyranny is so abhorrent and downright evil that if our country’s founding fathers saw all this going on, they would be stunned into silence that it’s happening in “the land of the free.” Fresh milk being criminalized? You’ve got to be kidding…

Only they’re not kidding. The FDA is the agency that has raided vitamin companies (http://www.naturalnews.com/021791.html ), arrested nutritional supplement manufacturers and ordered the destruction of books containing stevia recipes. This is the agency that censors the scientific truth about natural foods like cherries and walnuts (http://www.naturalnews.com/029698_censorship_FDA.html ) while promoting the outright fraud and quackery of the pharmaceutical industry.

And now the FDA is to be rewarded for its malfeasance with yet MORE power and authority?

This is how Washington works, folks. The government always thinks it’s here to save you, and the Democrats want Big Government to be your nanny and “take care of you.” (The Republicans, for their part, just want to bail out the wealthy banksters with your money.) And yet, when it all comes down to it, these people are just tyrants who have forgotten American history and abandoned the Constitution and its founding principles.

Mark my words: Five years down the road, when the FDA’s armed “food police” are running rampant across America, arresting farmers and imprisoning lettuce growers, people will be appalled, and they’ll wonder, “How could we have let this happen!?” The answer is right here: You let it happen because you allowed Big Government to rule over the food supply. And if there’s one thing we know about Big Government, it’s that it always wants to get bigger.

It always wants more power. More authority. More funding. And more excuses to function as a dictatorship that rules over the American people.

The Food Safety Modernization Act is to the food supply what the Patriot Act is to the Bill of Rights. We must make every effort to prevent this from becoming law, lest we find ourselves living under a food dictatorship where only dead, fumigated or irradiated food will be allowed to be sold to the public. The “food irradiation plot” has been the plan from the very beginning of all this (http://www.naturalnews.com/023015_food_foods_USDA.html ).
