Senate Bill S510 Makes it Illegal to Grow, Share, Trade or Sell 
Homegrown Food

By Steve Green

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.” It is similar to what India faced with imposition of the 
salt
tax during British rule, only S 510 extends control over all food in 
the US,
violating the fundamental human right to food." ~ Dr. Shiv Chopra, 
Canada
Health whistleblower.

Monsanto says it has no interest in the bill and would not benefit 
from it,
but Monsanto’s Michael Taylor who gave us rBGH and unregulated
genetically modified (GM) organisms, appears to have designed it and is
waiting as an appointed Food Czar to the FDA (a position unapproved by
Congress) to administer the agency it would create — without judicial
review — if it passes.

S 510 would give Monsanto unlimited power over all US seed, food
supplements, food AND FARMING.

History

In the 1990s, Bill Clinton introduced HACCP (Hazardous Analysis
Critical Control Points) purportedly to deal with contamination in the
meat industry. Clinton’s HACCP delighted the offending corporate
(World Trade Organization “WTO”) meat packers since it allowed
them to inspect themselves, eliminated thousands of local food
processors (with no history of contamination), and centralized meat
into their control. Monsanto promoted HACCP.

In 2008, Hillary Clinton, urged a powerful centralized food safety
agency as part of her campaign for president. Her advisor was Mark
Penn, CEO of Burson Marsteller*, a giant PR firm representing
Monsanto. Clinton lost, but Clinton friends such as Rosa DeLauro,
whose husband’s firm lists Monsanto as a progressive client and
globalization as an area of expertise, introduced early versions of
S 510.

S 510 fails on moral, social, economic, political, constitutional, and
human survival grounds.

1. It puts all US food and all US farms under Homeland Security
and the Department of Defense, in the event of contamination or
an ill-defined emergency. It resembles the Kissinger Plan.

2. It would end US sovereignty over its own food supply by insisting
on compliance with the WTO, thus threatening national security. It
would end the Uruguay Round Agreement Act of 1994, which put
US sovereignty and US law under perfect protection. Instead,
S 510 says:


COMPLIANCE WITH INTERNATIONAL AGREEMENTS.

Nothing in this Act (or an amendment made by this Act) shall be
construed in a manner inconsistent with the agreement establishing
the World Trade Organization or any other treaty or international
agreement to which the United States is a party.

3. It would allow the government, under Maritime Law, to define
the introduction of any food into commerce (even direct sales
between individuals) as smuggling into “the United States.” Since
under that law, the US is a corporate entity and not a location,
“entry of food into the US” covers food produced anywhere within
the land mass of this country and “entering into” it by virtue of
being produced.

4. It imposes Codex Alimentarius on the US, a global system of
control over food. It allows the United Nations (UN), World Health
Organization (WHO), UN Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO),
and the WTO to take control of every food on earth and remove
access to natural food supplements. Its bizarre history and its
expected impact in limiting access to adequate nutrition (while
mandating GM food, GM animals, pesticides, hormones, irradiation
of food, etc.) threatens all safe and organic food and health itself,
since the world knows now it needs vitamins to survive, not just to
treat illnesses.

5. It would remove the right to clean, store and thus own seed in
the US, putting control of seeds in the hands of Monsanto and
other multinationals, threatening US security. See Seeds – How
to criminalize them, for more details.

6. It includes NAIS, an animal traceability program that threatens
all small farmers and ranchers raising animals. The UN is participating
through the WHO, FAO, WTO, and World Organisation for Animal
Health (OIE) in allowing mass slaughter of even heritage breeds of
animals and without proof of disease. Biodiversity in farm animals is
being wiped out to substitute genetically engineered animals on which
corporations hold patents. Animal diseases can be falsely declared.
S 510 includes the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), despite its
corrupt involvement in the H1N1 scandal, which is now said to have
been concocted by the corporations.

7. It extends a failed and destructive HACCP to all food, thus
threatening to do to all local food production and farming what
HACCP did to meat production – put it in corporate hands and
worsen food safety.

8. It deconstructs what is left of the American economy. It takes
agriculture and food, which are the cornerstone of all economies,
out of the hands of the citizenry, and puts them under the total
control of multinational corporations influencing the UN, WHO,
FAO and WTO, with HHS, and CDC, acting as agents, with Homeland
Security as the enforcer. The chance to rebuild the economy based
on farming, ranching, gardens, food production, natural health, and
all the jobs, tools and connected occupations would be eliminated.

9. It would allow the government to mandate antibiotics, hormones,
slaughterhouse waste, pesticides and GMOs. This would industrialize
every farm in the US, eliminate local organic farming, greatly
increase global warming from increased use of oil-based products
and long-distance delivery of foods, and make food even more
unsafe. The five items listed — the Five Pillars of Food Safety —
are precisely the items in the food supply which are the primary
source of its danger.

10. It uses food crimes as the entry into police state power and
control. The bill postpones defining all the regulations to be
imposed; postpones defining crimes to be punished, postpones
defining penalties to be applied. It removes fundamental
constitutional protections from all citizens in the country, making
them subject to a corporate tribunal with unlimited power and
penalties, and without judicial review.

It is (similar to C-6 in Canada) the end of Rule of Law in the US.

Senator Richard Durbin (D-IL) is the sponsor of this bill.

The bill's co-sponsors are:

Lamar Alexander [R-TN]
Jeff Bingaman [D-NM]
Richard Burr [R-NC]
Roland Burris [D-IL]
Saxby Chambliss [R-GA]
Christopher Dodd [D-CT]

John Isakson [R-GA]
Edward Kennedy [D-MA]
Amy Klobuchar [D-MN]
Ben Nelson [D-NE]
Tom Udall [D-NM]
David Vitter [R-LA]


Write these senators today and tell them to revoke their support
of Senate Bill 510!
You may use the following letter in your correspondence:
Dear Congress(wo)man,
I am writing to express my deep concern over your sponsorship
of Senate Bill 510. This bill represents yet another attempt to
place more power into the hands of a centralized government,
while taking power away from states and individual citizens. The
danger of this bill is that it does so in the domain of our food. It
sets in place a number of preconditions for manipulation of
America's food supply and threatens to strip us of our freedoms
to grow, sell, and buy food. We the people have elected you to
office to serve us, not to dis-empower us and make us subject to
bureaucratic regulations lacking our best interests. Please remove
your sponsorship from Bill S510.
Sincerely,
(your name)

Vice Bob's Letter ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Now, if the letter suggested above makes you feel like a beggar,
groveling  for something that is already yours, and you feel that a
letter to your non-responsive servant representative is about as
useful as a screen door on a submarine, you might consider using
mine.  I would suggest sending it to his/her local address - it makes
it more neighborly personal.

The Honorable Louie Gohmert
1121  ESE Loop 323
Suite 206
Tyler, Texas  75701

Dear Louie,
                   With reference to the Senate Bill S-510, now in the 
processes
of being passed on Capital (sic) Hill.  If you and your 
'distinguished' colleges
have a lapse of good, solid, logical judgement and do pass S-510 into 
law,
I have just one fervent, heartfelt request for you to pass on to the 
soon
to be appointed Food Czar.  If you do feel the necessity to send someone
to my private, sovereign homestead with the intent or the perceived 
intent
to enforce this wholly and totally unconstitutional law, please accede 
to my
request and NOT SEND A MARRIED MAN WITH CHILDREN.  Please!!

Sincerely,

Bob Worn, Major-USAF (Retired)

No I am not jesting, The devil is having his field day to give or help the final oppressions of the people. What is so bad is I think what is coming is even worst brought on by all things coming together. Be sure to download the Link to The New World Order under the other thread of Political that Sda might want to know, and see what you think of that. Pretty scary expecially since the time is no longer just talk but has arrived.

This is mostly false.  You mix a little truth in with a lot of false to stir things up big time.

The information originally posted is an updating of this:

http://delauro.house.gov/files/HR875_Myths_Facts1.pdf

The plan is tighten SOME regulations for commercial food growers to keep us from getting salmonella or ecoli spinach at the grocery store. 

If you get this kind of stuff from the internet, please check out the facts for yourself by going to www.senate.gov and typing keywords into the search feature.  I think our God is big enough to take care of his flock.   Jesus said be not afraid.  Of course, he was walking on water at the time...  :)  But I believe I am safe in Him.

You'll see Willowrun,  Those snoopers try to calm the storm that is 
coming. We have been in agriculture products and know already what is 
being done with the food, union control, farms, control of farms, 
putting small farms out of business, control of seed, control of seed 
being scientifically engineered and animals too. we used to belong to 
huge organization with my husband right in the middle of things and 
would not agree to their agenda and spoke against it. It did no good so he got out. Sorry you need  to go where the action is and forget the coverups. I bet you eat the 
scientfifically engineered soybeans too. That is the worst thing to 
eat. Just think of all the poor babies that the Drs. put them on 
soybean milk. Do you know what that does? I do!  Ever wonder why 
steers and bulls are endowed with milkers too. Ya been to fairs to see 
this. More and more common you know. Did you rememember seeing in Lev: 
where they did all this back in Biblical days. Better read around I 
think cht.20. God forbid them to not mix, mingle and engineer the seed 
back then too. Does any of this ring any bells. Snoopers is a bunch of 
junk that makes money. I watch whats happening for real. Some of this 
has been fought in Congress. Oh, yes I watch all the stuff in congress 
too. I am an American. Oh well, some watch and some don't.

I put my faith in Jesus alone.  No matter what happens in this world, I will follow God's laws first.  If I get turned over to the police for giving my excess tomatoes or squash to a family in need of food, then God will see me through the trials of such an ordeal.  I can have no fear with Jesus walking beside me--whether I live to see the second coming or not.

Fear is the greatest manipulator of human beings.  And there are those who use Fear to gain power and control.  I don't play the fear game any more.

You ahead and preach that!!!    Amen!!!

We talk about a very violent endtime prophecy where we will be tested and only our faith in God will sustain us, yet we resort to fear mongering(sp)........we need to practice.  Think Daniel and his friends,.........

I don't fear it either it's just I watch the signs of the time and how they will oppress the people more and more. My 4 gardens filled the basement this year and have plenty for family, friends and neighbors. Corn, beans, potatoes, spagetti sauce, pizza sauce, tomato juice and whole, veg soup to the max. I had 100 tomato plants and they grew 5ft tall. Romas and Celebrities Strung them all up to posts with wire and then had to tie all those together by rope and then to telephone pole to hold them up. Neighbors sort of laughed.  But we had tomatoes and they had none (laugh)Will be finished after the applesauce, grapes, and applebutter. We supplied most of our neighbors with potatoes last year and are loaded up again this year. Its been fun, kept busy all summer. OUr neighbors are mostly retired, out of work or sickly and unable. When fall comes I will make carmel corn, and many treats that will be sold at the University until after Christmas. In between I sew, crocket bedspreads and while others come over in interest, I have my seminar tapes that we set and listen. Never thought my retiring time would be like this as I planned other but here we are--old time SDAventist just hanging around waiting for Jesus and stay very busy to not fear but help who ever we can in need or trouble.
