In the never ending affronts from our government, that's yours and mine, two new offerings, peanut butter and aircraft deicers. On the off chance that you've been out of the country herewith the facts.
Several hundred people have become sick from peanut butter that is contaminated with bacteria. In tonight's news yet another report about the issue that has been ongoing for some weeks now including the remarkable information that the FDA is 'working on' informing the public. I don't know about you but I've never heard from the FDA. I did hear from several news sources. Oh, and by the way, the FDA knew that for some time that this manufacturer was doubtful. Never mind, the FDA bought peanut butter to include in in disaster relief meals! Clueless to the point of criminal negligence. People died because the FDA didn't do its job.
But wait there's more. An aircraft crashed killing all aboard and one person on the ground. It appears that it was due to icing. Now icing on aircraft is a serious and often fatal occurrence. Such that the FAA, another of agency tasked with protecting us, has been working on deicing standards for new ircraft. Here's the kicker. They've been at it for the last 15 years and announced when asked that they are almost ready. I'm sure that will be a comfort to today's dead and their family's. Once again, clueless to the point of criminal negligence. People died today because the FAA didn't do its job.
These agencies report to the president and are funded by acts of congress. Yet this nonsense continues.
