Hello Everybody,
Due to the GOP shutdown of our government, this is what
is happening -
* The Food and Drug Administration is cutting back routine
food inspections. What this means is that when Americans
get sick due to having eaten contaminated food, they will
blame it on Republicans rather than Obama.
* The Environmental Protection Agency cannot monitor pollution
on pesticides. Which is great news for Texas Governor Rick
Perry, who forgot to mention during the presidential debates
that the EPA is an agency nobody needs.
* The Labor Department cannot enforce workplace safety
regulations. And that means WalMart can hire children
rather than grandmas and grandpas as greeters.
* The Center for Disease Control cannot monitor the speed
of the flu and other infectious diseases. So say hello to
the walking dead, formerly part of the cast of a television
series on AMC.
Why are Republicans doing all this? Because Republicans want
to take away access to affordable health care from every American.
