    Hahah!!!!
    "They [the Soviets] intend...to induce the Americans to adopt their own 'restructuring' and convergence of the Soviet and American systems ... Convergence will be accompanied by blood baths and political re-education camps in Western Europe and the United States. The Soviet strategists are counting on an economic depression in the United States and intend to introduce their reformed model of socialism with a human face as an alternative to the American system during the depression."

    So much for detailed. I don't support the feds regulating our commerce. The only regulations that should be put forth are the ones for fraud, if there are any. How about we actually have a discussion instead of directing me to read something.
    Do you do that in real life too? You tell people to go read something in the middle of your debate and you postpone it, charming.

    Still being noncommittal here, but what if the said companies put in dangerous pesticides and those were found to give people a strong virus or disease, and if they lied about it.

    What would you guys do?

    If someone is poisoning you on purpose without your consent, then they are guilty of assault/attempted murder/murder.

    States usually handle the prosecution of violent crimes.

    The federal gov't has amply proven that it is incapable of regulating anything. It is the most inept, corrupt institution I've ever seen.

    Yeah, I was going to go with this. If anything, states should handle it. Definitely not the feds.
