Senate Bill 510 is Hissing in the Grass
BY: STEVE GREEN
Apr 30, USA (FOOD FREEDOM) Senate Bill S510 makes it illegal to grow, share, trade or sell homegrown food, or even to produce your own food!
S 510, the Food Safety Modernization Act of 2010, may be the most dangerous bill in the history of the US. It is to our food what the bailout was to our economy, only we can live without money.
“If accepted [S 510] would preclude the public’s right to grow, own, trade, transport, share, feed and eat each and every food that nature makes. It will become the most offensive authority against the cultivation, trade and consumption of food and agricultural products of one’s choice. It will be unconstitutional and contrary to natural law or, if you like, the will of God.” ~Dr. Shiv Chopra, Canada Health whistleblower

Dems' Plan to Control your Land
BY: JANE CHASTAIN
APR 29, CALIFORNIA, USA (WORLDNET DAILY) It's not enough that Barack Obama and the Democrats want complete control of health care, the financial system and the air above – now they are advancing a bill that will control the land beneath our feet.
You can forget the property provision of the Fifth Amendment to the Constitution and tear up any deeds you may now possess. If this bill passes, that property
you own won't be worth more than the paper those deeds are written on unless you have the blessing of Big Brother's bureaucrats.

Raw Milk Crackdown
BY: MIKE RIGGS
APR 26, PENNSYLVANIA, USA (EYE STREET) “They came in the dark, shining bright flashlights while my family was asleep, keeping me from milking my cows, from my family, from breakfast with my family and from our morning devotions, and alarming my children enough so that the first question they asked my wife was, ‘Is Daddy going to jail?’”
That’s how Amish farmer Dan Allgyer described an early morning visit last week from two FDA agents, two U.S. Marshals, and a Pennsylvania state trooper. Apparently, investigating a single farmer for possibly trafficking raw milk across state lines requires a show of force.

7 Questions for Goldman Sachs
BY: ELIOT SPITZER
APR 28, TORONTO, ONTARIO, CANADA (FINANCIAL POST) In ordinary times, the SEC's fraud case against Goldman Sachs would have been settled before it was even filed. There would have been a consent decree in which Goldman neither admitted nor denied any wrongdoing, paid a fine, and agreed to make more fulsome disclosures in the future. But these are not ordinary times, and the SEC's very public announcement that it's charging Goldman with misrepresentation and fraud in its marketing of a subprime debt product has become one of the biggest stories in the entire Wall Street scandal.
The filing of the Goldman case has crystallized the public support for more vigorous regulation of Wall Street. The Republican effort to oppose financial regulatory reform is now fading into an effort to forge a compromise that will give them some sort of defensible exit strategy. Under any bill that is likely to pass, derivatives trading will become reasonably transparent... [ ] This is all good stuff, but none of it is really adequate to address the "too big to fail" structure of the financial industry in a fundamental way. And it won't repair the underlying asymmetry of our having "socialized risk" and "privatized gain" for those entities that have an explicit federal guarantee behind them.
