This is exactly what's wrong with America.
This isn't not a question of big govt small govt this is a question of smart government
This small example of dept of agriculture is telling of what happens at all levels of govt, moneyed interests are given higher priority than health and well being of American citizens.
Small policies like this are indicative of the larger trend in govt policies towards fatter richer dumber rather than healthier smarter and happier.
America is succumbing to extremism, not from the middle east but from middle America and the middle of the aisle. A few years ago, I came to the realization that nothing is black and white. Things tend to be more or less this, and more or less that, with varying degrees of similarity and difference, certain aspects shared, many not.
American politics are overrun with violent opposition and hateful speech. Most Americans can agree on the importance of certain things; health, education, civil liberties, national defense, etc. Isn't it about time we came to terms with the fact that there is more than one way to improve these things..
A piece of gravel was lodged in my hand. Yesterday 7+ years later i got it out via home surgery.

French people, especially young ones, are crazy when it comes to cars, or maybe us americans are too lackadaisical. I took a trip to Xavier's ongoing cabin project this weekend, and had the good fortune to catch a ride and not have to pay for a train. We struck out from the Paris suburbs, direction - La Meuse. Before leaving, comments were made about how with five people in the car, it was overloaded and potentially a risky drive, in case the brakes don't work, downshift, use the engine brake, the car isn't used to this load, so be prepared, all good advice, but you just get the impression that you're embarking on something much more epic or dangerous than just a car ride. 10 minutes outside of Paris, we were reassured that the driver had checked the air pressure in all tires, and good thing, because they all differed slightly. The driver commented on how crazy the other drivers on the road were because the had "such a close following distance" "Zero zone de securité, c'est hallucinant, les gens!" We pull into our first rest stop, the driver panics and doesn't know where to park at the gas station, or how to get there ( just keep going straight, until you arrive at the gas station, yes you can even pass through the place where people get gas, not park there, and continue to the parking spot) mini crisis avoided...Arriving in Verdun and leaving the autoroute, then the horror stories of driving too fast through villages began, girlfriends scolded driving boyfriends about speed limits, paying attention to shoulders, and to watch out for the fog. At one point we went through a patch of fog that lasted maybe two seconds, shrieking ensued. After a nice weekend of woodsy outdoorsin' we hit the road for Paris, and the horror, we were stuck behind tractors...on more than one occasion! after quasi panic attacks, we explained that it was okay, and all you had to do was pass, quickly, on the left.
The ride home was less problematic, i think because everyone was too tired, and maybe, just maybe, because they accepted that driving a car with people in it, is actually that easy.

My friend Beto hooked me up with the box set LIKE OMIGOD 80S. Its pretty much the best way to get a dance party started, or push through your shitty afternoon of work. Check the tracklist here.
This boxset is the tits, honest engine.
Through this music collection, I rediscoverd five time grammy award winner Christopher Cross and his magical hit "Sailing" which some claimed spawned the yacht rock genre.
