Alert: End of farmer's markets, roadside stands, CSA's?
I recently stumbled across an extremely alarming post online.
I am not an alarmist. And I don't care who is to blame.
The point is that there are some seriously damaging prospects on the table at the moment, and everyone should know what the possibilities are.

PLEASE urge your Representatives to PLEASE kill HR 814, SR 425, And Soon, HR 759.
The bills would require such a burdensome complexity of rules, inspections, licensing, fees, and penalties for each farmer who wishes to sell locally - a fruit stand, at a farmers market - no one could manage it.
And THAT is the point.
HR 875 was introduced by Rosa DeLauro whose husband, Stanley Greenburg, works for Monsanto.
These bills will allow the government to actually seize YOUR property if YOU are maintaining a garden from which you sell produce.
So, if you like farmers markets, local farmers, fresh milk, fresh eggs, vegetables stands, and freedom, let your friends know that it's all on the line right now with those "fake food safety" bills brought to us with well-planned evil and more of it to come, by Monsanto, Cargill, Tysons, ADM, etc.

PLEASE urge your Representatives to PLEASE kill HR 814, SR 425, And Soon, HR 759.
Also, Senate Bill 425 would place onerous restrictions on farmers, especially organic farmers and small farmers, backed by big Farm lobbyists for Monsanto, ADM, Tyson, etc. Companion to House Resolution 875. It will put many small farmers out of business.
We need to stop these bills first, or we are left with no money from the financial bail-out and no food from the food steal-out.
Additional items that EVERYONE should know about:
Bill HJ 5 IH will repeal the 22nd Amendment and eliminate term limits on the office of the Presidency.
Barbara Boxer is urging the confirmation of a UN treaty titled UNCRC. This treaty, if signed, will take parental rights away and assign them to the UN. Clinton tried to get this signed while he was in office but could not get the support that he needed.
Under the Supremacy Clause (Article VI) of the U.S. Constitution, ratified treaties preempt state law. Since virtually all laws in the U.S. regarding children are state laws, this treaty would negate nearly 100% of existing American family law. Moreover, it would grant the government authority to override parental decisions by applying even to good parents a standard now only used against those convicted of abuse or neglect.

A health bill that was tucked away inside the Stimulus Bill will allow the government to deny you treatment and fine your doctor if he does not comply.
SB.9 will give all illegal aliens in the United States, including gang members and those who have committed other crimes, amnesty and relieve them of having to pay back taxes (and possibly insuring that the current government gets re-elected time after time?)
The new CPSI Act, that went into effect on Feb. 10, requires testing on just about anything sold for use on or by children under the age of 12 and very effectively puts privately owned toy stores and small toy makers out of business on behalf of large toy manufacturers.
The Employee Free Choice Act will eliminate private votes on whether or not to unionize. This will subject those who don’t want to unionize to castigation insuring that there is no free choice as to unionize or not.
The TARP Reform Bill not only gave the banks access to the remaining $350 billion, it gave them unlimited access to future funds as well. When the inflation hits as a result of this increase in the money supply, your pay will be worth half of what it is now.
PLEASE do not read this and write it off. Do your own homework.
Take responsibility for your own opinions and ideas, even if they disagree with mine.
