What crap. Refusing to buy oil that finances Putin’s murderous operation is not "overregulation. " And there’s nothing wrong with baby formula from Germany. It’s called free market competition. Guess Bok is opposed to free markets.
It should have never been shut down in the first place. They chose to reward their stock holders and buy back stock instead of fixing their plant. Corporate greed led to this.
Abbott voluntarily shut down it’s plant in Michigan. The FDA found several issues with sanitation and Abbott is addressing them. It’s a sound business decision. Parents will drop them if they believe that Abbott’s formula is tainted and Abbott isn’t doing enough to make sure their product is safe.
And what regulation is causing us to buy oil from Venezuela?
conservatives like Bok who oppose abortion of a fetus yet support deregulation of businesses that actually killed babies should be exposed for their ignorance.
Maybe regulation of guns will be asked of Abbott after an 18 year old shot and killed his grandmother and then proceeded to kill 14 elementary school students in Texas today. We can only hope that this bites Abbott in the ass.

I suppose Chip Bok would rather have babies die than feed them formula from Germany.

Are you amused that Bok thinks protecting the lives of babies is over-regulation?
I’m really not.

Baghdad Bok would rather see babies die from under-regulation. After all, they can always force women to have more babies.

Maybe he thinks there should be fewer inspectors so Abbott could go on making tainted formula

Yeah, that 1906 Food & Drug Act was overkill.

How does Bok figure this is over regulation?
Abbott voluntarily shut down it’s plant in Michigan. The FDA found several issues with sanitation and Abbott is addressing them. It’s a sound business decision. Parents will drop them if they believe that Abbott’s formula is tainted and Abbott isn’t doing enough to make sure their product is safe.

Sadly, Bok displays his stupidity and riles the RWNJs … he has no understanding of the power of corporate monopolies!

Abbott took their republican tax breaks under Trump and bought their own stock back instead of up grading equipment.
They contaminated the formula but apologized.

You seem to mistake the free market for the socialism you wish was in charge of Baby Formula. SAD
braindead Premium Member almost 2 years ago
Baghdad Bok takes yet another opportunity to LIE.
And why should any Republican give a sh!t if babies die from contaminated formula? After all, they are babies, not fetuses!

The U.S. doesn’t currently import oil from Venezuela. They are under sanctions. You can look at the data, we stopped in 2018/19.
If the U.S. gets a variety of concessions from the Venezuela Government, then the oil embargo may be eased.

Over regulation is what Trump and the Republicans did to cause this particular supply side issue in the first place.

What does not regulating get you? Dead Children. But since Bok is a republican he doesn’t care since they are no longer in a womb.

Lack of regulation gets you arrogant tax free billionaires and a middle class failing to keep up.

Overregulation is why we have so few producers in America? Seems like we’ve allowed too much consolidation.
