North, I highly doubt hr875 has anything to do with home gardens. Conspiracy theorists will no doubt disagree.

I concur..The vast majority are very overrated, BUT, a good one with a little age on it is something beautiful that cannot be replicated.

I still see nothing in that bill that relates specifically to home gardens. Please, if you see different point that out.

Senate bill S. 510 does it is creates statutory authority for the FDA to come up with regulations governing all aspects of food production and processing. So whether or not it will affect a home garden or a farmer’s market, we probably won’t see anything immediately affecting those, but once they come up with the regulations and start enforcing we could see a disruption in anything from a farmer’s market to a child’s lemonade stand.

So there IS nothing there that says that. You could take any bill and say "well, they're going to do blah blah blah." I have a feeling they're thinking a little more large scale here.

Good one there. You just summed up what is wrong with America today. Not illegal unless you get caught.

Guess that is true if you have no morals or sense of what is right and wrong.

No, what's wrong with America today is the people really have no say anymore. There was a time when the voice of the people was actually heard. Now it's all about kickbacks and behind closed door politics.

Our fed. gov. enforces the right that is in there best interest and the wrong that their friends lobby them to enforce.

Heaven forbid if some sicko rapes a child, he'll go to prison and become someone's bitch. Let a member of congress do it and they'll be at work the next day. Who's wrong, the ones breaking meaningless laws or the ones covering their own pathetic ass by writing themselves special loop holes?
