Faith in Government

Los Angeles Times: Toxic melamine is suspected in seafood from China. Here’s a story to warm your heart before Christmas. Businesses usually complain about high taxes and excessive regulations. So, I was quite surprised when I spotted this quote below:

We’re definitely concerned about melamine, but by the time the fish gets to us, health issues should’ve been taken care of by the government agencies and brokers that we go through.

Oh boy! If that doesn’t make you swear off seafood from China, I don’t know what will. Should’ve, just like government agencies should’ve been keeping a closer eye on the sub-prime mortgage crisis and Bernie Madoff.
