re: What do we think RFK will actually do regarding our food?

You can be anti-leftist and still support some of the values traditionally associated with the left,

That's an interesting gordian knot

Again, you are thinking in absolutes and you’re just… wrong.

I am anti-leftism, especially leftism that regulates commerce/contract and our individual economic rights.

quote:

---

No. It’s not.

The irony of using the leftist strategy of redefining words is probably lost on you.

The right is associated with free commerce. The left is associated with regulated commerce. This is a left or right issue.

And there you go again with your labels.

It's called a joke. It was more a reference than a label.

You sound like a Bernie Bro in this thread.

You even referenced a Nordic Country, which they love to do.

I can’t stand Bernie.

I bet you Bernie agrees with regulating food like as is being projected ITT.

You are the most progressive kommie poster on here

RFKjr will return to real, transparent science

have a lot more power in this area in terms of Constitutional analysis

Yes if going by state rights. I get your angle here. It does make me conflicted but I also think its unreasonable to think there should be a free for all in many industries. You and I live in the worst state for overreach of Government agencies and license requirements just to conduct business. Its absurd and I think it would be worse without some Federal intervention.

quote:

---

This eradicates so many of the arguments for those who claim MAGA but have a vestige of economic freedom in their bones. That's the bigger picture.

---

I personally think there is a fine line and it's not as absolute as you say.

quote:

---

The argument on Trump decreasing regulation? Gone. This is a very large increase in federal regulation.

---

Its adding a few more items to the already banned list. Clenbuterol is banned here but allowed in other countries because of side effects which include heart dysfunction. Why would we not want to regulate something potentially life-threatening?

quote:

---

Petro, energy, healthcare, infrastructure, workplace safety, etc.?

---

Yes, some regulation is needed in all of those. The issue is that Bureaucrats overregulate to justify their jobs. The DOE is a great example. It was started as an advisory council much like DOGE is and at the end of their use they pushed to be morphed into a full-blown Government agency so they could keep their jobs and it grew into the overreaching monster it is.

I think there is a fine line in proper regulation and that starts with limiting the powers of Bureaucracies. I am not sure if it is achievable without Congress doing its job but what we have now isn't working.

Again, I think it's perfectly reasonable to question what is being put into our food and if in the past some things were allowed because of monetary influence.

Rog, don't you get Medicaid to pay for your cancer treatments?

frick no.

The board gossip should know more about me than this.

frick no.

But you benefit from Obamacare by having lower premiums offset by high earners like me.

You're welcome.

Because of not having 17 ingredients in French fries?

No, because of an unwavering trust in government.

This regulatory power you people crave will be used against you

If you havent learned by now,...

You left out the last part. Accident I’m sure.

You seem unaware that your ideology requires a bigger nanny state than any other ideology in human history to prosper. Otherwise my clan takes all your shite as we wish.

I know you think you’re John Wick. You aren’t fricking John Wick. No f@ggot libertarian is John Wick. You need big government more than anyone. You’re just too dumb to realize it.

quote:

---

You seem unaware that your ideology requires a bigger nanny state

It does not.

Saving incompetent people requires a nanny state, which is 100% what you people are advocating.

If you dont put forth the effort to take care of yourself, I really dont give a shite if you are fat and unhealthy.

In my world, shitty blood lines die out. The strong survive.

They are being contrarian blowhards arguing about something irrelevant to try to sound smart. They don’t believe in any of this garbage, just the illusion of principles. Libertarians are scum, and I say that as a recovering libertarian.
