    Phew! I was getting EXTREMELY ANGRY at these SOCIALISTS using MY TAX DOLLARS to Inspect FOOD! I’m MUCH Happier Now that those SAME DOLLARS are being used to pay Elon Musk for KILLER SATELITES Instead!

    Some FDA employees have been working on a possible shift of the agency’s routine food efforts to states for years, one current and one former official said, which could free up resources to focus on higher priority and foreign inspections. The FDA already outsources some routine food inspections through contracts with 43 states and Puerto Rico.

    Interesting, so this isn’t just a Trump thing? And the plan hasn’t to end testing food, rather to shift who is testing it.
