CONSUMER PROTECTION AGENCIES FAILING AMERICA Posted: 1 year ago by dollyllama
You may have heard the curious story this week of the Consumer Product Safety Commission, which is supposed to make sure thousands of everyday consumer products don't pose unnecessary dangers. Given the spate of recent high-profile recalls, Congress has just discovered there's too much work for the agency's paltry staff of 400, and is now considering a law to beef up its work force Curiously, the commission's chairwoman, Bush administration appointee Nancy Nord, opposes the increase. Could this be: A government bureaucrat rejecting more resources? Many observers were shocked.
**Must say, this article scares me more than a lot of others, we all have to buy something, sometime. Milk, oranges, SOMETHING.
