House Republicans Want To Poison Your Children

In yet another stunning blow for State's Right, the GOP House has passed (without a committee hearing that might've introduced pesky facts into the debate) a bill to overturn any State food safety label standards that are more stringent than the federal government's. Thanks to this money-saving measure, lobbyists will now only have to purchase the US Congress, instead of the more expensive route of purchasing up to 50 state legislatures. And if some kids happen to become ill or die because of poor labelling on food, well, that's just the magical "invisible hand" of the Free Market at work!
