i'm not against government regulations or government inspections, but it seems to me the government is mainly good at passing laws and regulations it cannot or will not enforce. i don't see the government doing a good job of regulation enforcement. sometimes it's corrupt (e.g. building inspection approvals in Los Angeles, where I live, have sometimes required side payments to the inspectors). sometimes it's underfunded. one source estimates that only 2% of imported food is inspected: http://www.nbcnews.com/id/44701433/ns/health-food_safety/t/flood-food-imported-us-only-percent-inspected/#.WbMS_K2ZOJU http://www.nbcnews.com/id/44701433/ns/health-food_safety/t/f...
