    Be a meat eater and the meat is no good. Be a Vegetarian and there’s fecal matter in your salad.

    No way to win. Oh well. Time to spin the wheel.

    Behold the legacy of the anti-government presidents: Carter, Reagan, Clinton, and W. Bush. Reduce government because it interferes with private enterprise. Let businesses regulate themselves because that’s the best way to maximize business opportunities that benefit the country. Don’t worry if your food supply is contaminated or if there is too much lead in your children’s toys. You can always buy your goods from a supplier that follows the rules even when unregulated…Provided you survive.

    simple: just buy stuff the mfr has had approved as kosher. circle U (orthodox union), star K, triangle K, etc. somewhere (usually) to the lower right of the brand-name on the front label. closest you’re gonna get to non-governmentally regulated clean food. pricier, yes. but pure.

    Carter deregulated the trucking and airline industry in hopes that it would bring more prosperity to the U.S. He was wrong. Reagan then put Carter’s deregulation practices on steroids with bigger industries like the S and L’s (which resulted in a crash).

    Carter was many times more favorable than Reagan ever was.
