Michael Olson, reports on s.510
Leslie....
As you may know, I have been following
S510 and related legislation for a long time,
and my most recent shows (#697, 698, 699 & 700)
were all focused on that legislation.
Like many others, I have come to the belief that
this "Food Safety" legislation is really designed
to make food safe for industrial producers
by eliminating local food.
The emperor, in other words, wears no clothes!

Show #697:
GODS THAT DAMN FOOD I: THE CRISIS - 04-09-2010 (8.52 MB) Listen Now buy cd version
Guests: Sally Fallon Morell, Weston A. Price Foundation, and Pete Kennedy, Farm to Consumer Legal Defence Fund (CDC pending)
Subject: “You never let a serious crisis go to waste.” Rahm Emanuel The United States has a serious food safety crisis, and so its agents, with guns drawn and warrants in hand, are breaking down the doors of the little people who sell food to their neighbors. But wait… Which is in crisis: local food or industrial food?
Topics include how fresh whole milk has become the battleground of food safety; why government has become so frightened of fresh whole milk; and why government is telling us, “You have no absolute right to consume any particular food.”

Guests: Brigette Ruthman of Joshua’s Farm in Massachusetts, and Aajonus Vonderplanitz of the Rawsome Food Coop in Los Angeles
Subject: “You never let a serious crisis go to waste.” Rahm Emanuel Two giant farms sold us a half-billion rotten eggs, and so agents of the government, with guns drawn and warrants in hand, are breaking down the doors of the little people who sell fresh, whole foods to their neighbors. But… Why is government attacking little people with no problems instead of big people with lots of problems?
Topics include a look at government enforcement actions against the purveyors of fresh, whole foods; why government is attacking small producers with little or no food safety problems, while ignoring giant producers with huge food safety problems; and what government hopes to accomplish by attacking the little people.
SHOW #699

Show #699: GODS THAT DAMN FOOD III, THE KILL - 18-09-2010 (8.87 MB) Listen Now buy cd version
Guests: Judith McGeary from Farm and Ranch Freedom Alliance, Dr. Shiv Chopra from Health Canada, Senator Richard Durbin declined to participate
Subject: “You never let a serious crisis go to waste.” Rahm Emanuel And so, to protect us from contaminated foods that come from thousands of miles away, government is passing truckloads of food safety legislation like S510. But this effort leads us to ask… Will food safety legislation kill local food?
Topics include a look at what foods are in crisis; who is telling government how to make food safe; and what impact S510 and related food safety legislation will have on our access to food.
SHOW #700

Pasteurized milk more harmful that raw?

Guests: Michael Olson, Author, MetroFarm, Host, Food Chain Radio
Subject: Every once in awhile, like when you get to be 700, you should celebrate by doing something special. And so… The secret to economic viability is simple: Become a producer in a nation of consumers! And what could all those consumers want more than fresh, whole food? This chain of thought leads us to ask… Can we eat our way to economic security and personal freedom?
Topics include the emerging conflict between industrial and local foods; government’s participation in this conflict; and how, despite government, we can simply eat our way to economic security and personal freedom.

Michael, just had a dream. There needs to be a movie called "Educating Washington." It begins with closing the gap between participation in Government. We can not leave the fate of our food to 100 senators.
This is absurd to give them the vote on the future of our food. The entire hearing on s.510 needs to be recorded and studied by lots and lots of people. Please make sure you record the hearings november 17 so we can begin so the educaiton process begins.
I need to ask ask lots of us to record this for future use.
I hope you rrecord and listen in to the hearings that begin November 17.
Thia should be major event, influencing the fate of our food.
Did you hear that Europe has outlawed natural herbs by April 2011?
I am new to a lot of this.
That needs to be subject of shows, if you have not done them yet.
best to you,
Leslie

our community bonding within our circles, and from here,
extending our circle of influence to include Educating Washington

Thank you for the kind words. I enjoyed your post and the Post and can see that we are both "barking up the same tree!" Next time I do a food safety show I will try to contact you so that you can read the last stanza in "America the Beautiful!"

Michael, You are doing a great job. Thank you. I want to read the last stanza\'s of \"America the Beautiful\" on your show and participate in the discussion. Please go to the Huffington Post and read my blog on Chewing on Food Safet: A National Conversation is needed. Google Chewing on Food Safety for lots more. I want to read the poem I wrote on this. This is no time to give over the future of our food to 100 senators who need a serious education on what real food is, no less food safety.
