FARMAGGEDON
Sources: http://farmageddonmovie.com/
This rather engaging documentary entitled "Farmaggedon" reveals the obstacles and conflicts that organic farmers and food producers face from federal food regulation agencies. Often such farmers face harassment, crushing amounts of regulatory paperwork, seizures of their products and livestock, house arrest, and even threats at gunpoint. This film certainly raises many questions and provides food for thought. One wonders why the goverment agencies intensly regulate the sale of healthful foods such as raw milk yet do nothing to regulate the sale of unhealthy processed and fast foods. What sort of interests are food regulation agencies really protecting?
