When I first read "the Jungle", I thought it was mainly an expose of the shitty food they were getting in the "good old days" before the FDA. It was not until I entered the Workforce myself, and lived through "Reaganomics" that the rest of the lesson hit home.
And now with not only "Son of Dribble-Down" looming on the horizon, but the whispers that the FDA might be firmly in PHARMA's jockstrap.....
We didn't learn, we traded our involvement and vigilance for "Must-See Teeee-Veeee" and we're about to see History repeat it's bad old self.
Crappy "food" that's made from chemicals (FrankenFood, HFCS) "Medicine" that gets approved on a memo from Lord Rove and a note from Lilly's accountants, etc. etc. etc......
