The words "homeland security" are found 41 times in the text of the bill S. 510, also known as the Food Safety Modernization Act.  Unprecedented  powers over food are set to be handed over to Homeland Security if the bill is not stopped.

The bill opens opens the door to even more federal control over the everyday lives of American citizens.  Since they are already engaging in organic raw milk raids without the increased powers of S. 510, the question is going to be how many more guns-drawn raids are we to expect after the bill becomes law?  It gets worse.  Not only does the bill grant the FDA more power, Michael R. Taylor was named deputy commissioner for foods at the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in January 2010. Michael R. Taylor also worked for Monsanto, was a lobbyist for them, according to Wikipedia. And all of this activity is happening at a time when a flourishing self-sufficiency movement is taking hold in this country, at a time when demand for fresh, local, and organic food is at an all time high.   
The question is:  Do America's small farmers want a pro-Monsanto lobbyist in charge of the nation's food supply?  
The answer is clear and this may turn out to be a draw-the-line-in-the-sand moment for many people.  May God bless America!
