Subject: public comment on federal register
hitting the taxpayers up to spend money because the devious sneaky actions of the dept of agriculture and fda, which has allowed chemically altered foods which they know are unhealthy for people and which put weight on people to be approved for sale by food mfrs for years now. we have these two federal agencies approving weight inducing food and being allowed to do that and getting bribes from the food mfrs to allow it. and then we have this other agency wanting to study this problem. FOR GODS SAKE, GET THE FIRST TWO AGENCIES TO DO THE JOB THEY SHOUDL DO AND STOP ALLOWING CORN FRUSTOSE SYRUP AND OTHER FATTENING INGREDIENTS AND CHEMICALS IN FOOD. WE NEED HEALTHY FOOD AND THE US DEPT OF AGRICULTURE AND THE US FDA IS NOT WORKING TO SEE THAT AMERICA GETS THAT AT ALL. SO WE WOULD NOT NEED THESE STUDIES AND THEY ARE STUPID SINCE ONE PART OF OUR FEDERAL GOVT IS WORKING AGAINST HEALTHY KIDS BY ALLOWING THIS WEIGHT INDUCING FOOD. WHY SHOULD TAXPAYERS PAY FOR TWO AGNCIES WHEN THE FIRST TWO ARE CAUSING THE PROBLEM. GET THEM TO STOP LETTING THESE WEIGHT INDUCING PRODUCTS BE SOLD AT ALL. MAKE THE FOOD MFRS PUT THE OLD HEALTHY INGREDIENTS IN FOOD. THIS STUDY IS LUDICROUS. AND WASTEFUL SINCE THE GOVT IS CAUSING THE PROBLEM.
