Excerpt from Vision to America:
Dear Overtaxed and Overspent American,
When it comes to government waste, FDA is certainly doing its part. The agency’s 2011 requested budget of $4.03 billion was actually an increase of 23%, and as a matter of fact, the FDA's 2010 budget was $3.28 billion, which was 17.5% increase over the prior year's $2.79 billion allotment.
So over the past 2 years, a period when Americans have been suffering through the most trying of economic times and cutting the fat in our personal budgets, the FDA has increased its spending by a whopping 44%!
Now, in its latest power grab, FDA is trying to expand regulation over vitamins and supplements.
Recently, FDA issued “draft guidance” for complying with the New Dietary Ingredient (NDI) notification protocols contained in the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act (DSHEA) which was passed into a law in 1994. If fully implemented, this could ban all dietary supplements in the United States that were formulated after 1994....
===================
Note: I wonder how many people know about the FDA 'research factory' in Arkansas with its 'research' production of new 'birth control' chemicals...?
