Dear Government,
Please get your ass the **** out of my bedroom, doctor's office, and kitchen.
You, and your Food Police, are cordially invited to kiss my ass.

Probably pointless because the both the Critters and the Presidential Fraud have early warning detection and underground bunkers they can scurry into!!! Think rats scurrying down to the sewer!!!
O LORD, PLEASE DELIVER OBAMA INTO THE HANDS OF AN AWAKENED MILITARY.
IN JESUS' NAME,
AMEN

Wait till they tax those of us that raise free range meat to the point we have to sell out and you can only get it from gov't approved companies.

Oh YEAH? This org. takes credit for giving us it's brain child, "URBAN BLOCK GRANTS" LEGISLATED. The more I dig into the origin, history, and power of this organization the more I wanna throw up.
This organization is a product of and Federal response to the race riots and the civil rights movement.
IF YOU LOVE ACORN, YOU WILL LOVE THESE PEOPLE.
Can you see their rise to preeminence in influencing public policy with the advent of Barak OBAMA to make Congress a culture medium for what I CALL their heavily COMMUNIST notions of redistribution of wealth and tight Federal control in the interest of BEST SERVING the particular segment of the American populace they were designed to benefit.
YOU DIG UP THE TRUTH. Go look up this organizations roots and purpose. Go read the LONG version of their report "Assessing the New Federalism" like I did. READ IT. It seems to me they are AGAINST the recent de-Federalization of welfare and many urban programs, and they WANT CONTROL, REGULATORY POWER AND MONEY TAKEN BACK FROM THE STATES AND REFEDERALIZED for more and more equitable aid to low income people from one state to another.

Grow food, pay and/or help out your neighbors with green thumbs. Buy seeds, learn to save them. Buy and barter local-network now.
This is about money and power. When socialists come to power people always end up starved to death.
Just read a thing about Chavez seizing food plants as people were restless and hungry.
When the dollar tanks our food will be shipped overseas to the highest bidder.
The futures market will ride that wave.
The government will seize food here and dole it out. This is just the beginning...
At least with seeds you can grow wherever-

Really all they have to do is to utilize the Soviet and Nazi Germany method: have neighbors spy on each other, and offer rewards for those who turn in "offenders."
Some people will absolutely do that for the "rewards."

Yep. All it takes is rewarding a few "informers" about who is "endangering the public/commercial food supply" or public health with their amateur gardening, avian flu susceptible backyard chickens, swine flu susceptible pigs, or potential mad cow in their backyard. Scare the public, rule with fear, and MAKE VERY PUBLIC EXAMPLES HARSHLY PUNISHING A FEW PEOPLE DARING TO DEFY THE LAW.
They "ran this degree of control" up the flagpole to see who would salute with the inauguration of controlling who would be allowed to have an unneutered dog or cat. THEY DON'T GIVE A FRIGGIN' DAMN ABOUT DOGS AND CATS. They still kill as many as they want, WHICHEVER ONES THEY ONLY HAVE THE LIFE AND DEATH POWER TO KILL. They practiced demonizing anyone who sold their puppies as "running an UNLICENSED PUPPY MILL." Now such people are considered "beneath contempt". Now a dog is "adopted", with contractual concessions and control over that animal which you must obey. IT WAS A SUCCESSFUL DRY RUN ENFORCEMENT EXERCISE PREPARATORY TO THE VERY PROGRAMS THAT LOOM IN OUR FUTURE.
Regarding any future restriction on home gardening or raising your own few livestock, a very few will still dare to risk even harsh punishment, but the overwhelming majority WILL FEAR TO DISOBEY. How many does the IRS scare into compliance with "voluntary taxation"? MOST.

Actually, salt gets a bad rap.

The Urban Institute, founded in 1968, is a private, nonprofit organization dedicated to conducting independent research on a broad range of social and economic issues of particular importance to improving the quality of life in metropolitan centers in the nation and throughout the developing world. Through statistical research, polling, and interviews, the institute seeks to make available pertinent data that will help in the formulation of state and federal policy. Its published reports, offered in print and on the Internet, are made available to interested individuals, organizations, and researchers free of charge, in the interest of expanding public debate.
The Urban Institute carries out its mission of research and education through the activities conducted by its nine research centers, each of which specializes in particular aspects of the urban experience. For instance, the Education Policy Center generates research on all aspects of education reform, particularly as it relates to the needs of urban public school programs. The Health Policy Center has long concerned itself in studying the changing landscape of insurance availability and, especially, the growing numbers of uninsured and underinsured workers. The Labor and Social Policy Center explores trends in employment and unemployment and, since the late 1980s, has taken a special interest in addressing the problem of rising homelessness in the nation's cities. And the Metropolitan Housing and Communities Center has concentrated on research into standards and availability of low-and middle-income urban housing and on the social and economic effects of housing policy at the state and federal level.
In addition to research, the institute actively seeks to disseminate its findings to interested parties, from policymakers at the state and national level to academic researchers and the general public. To accomplish this goal, the institute makes its data available, free of charge, to all interested parties via its website, and its experts regularly present their research results in a variety of formats, from books and journal articles to interviews, radio addresses, and testimony before congressional committees. "First Tuesdays" is a series of seminars on urban-related topics of current interest, hosted at the institute's headquarters in Washington, D.C., on the first Tuesday of each month from October to June. In addition, the institute participates in a nationally syndicated program, City Scapes, in partnership with WAMU-FM, a Washington, D.C., radio station.
Membership and Funding
The institute draws its members from the fields of government and community service, academia, journalism, and business. A small group of senior fellows directs institute-sponsored research with the assistance of a research staff of 400. In addition to directing specific projects, senior fellows also conduct independent research, publish in scholarly and mass-market publications, and represent the institute in the media and while testifying before Congress.
Organization and Funding
The Urban Institute is home to nine separate research centers: the Education Policy Center, the Health Policy Center, the Income and Benefits Policy Center, the International Activities Center, the Justice Policy Center, the Labor and Social Policy Center, the Metropolitan Housing and Communities Center, the Nonprofits and Philanthropy Center, and the Population Studies Center. It receives financial support from government agencies, charitable foundations, corporate sponsors, individual donations, and grants from international organizations such as the World Bank.

History
In the mid-to late 1960s the United States was confronted by increasing urban unrest. Then-president Lyndon B. Johnson had initiated an extensive array of social initiatives, termed the "Great Society," in an effort to address many of the problems facing the nation during that era. In 1968 the Urban Institute was created specifically to evaluate the successes and failings of President Johnson's policies, particularly as they affected key urban issues, such as poverty, educational finance, unemployment, housing, transportation, and welfare. Among the first projects undertaken by the institute was a pioneering effort to use computer modeling to track the results achieved by federal social programs and changes in the tax law and to investigate the impact of these policies on a wide variety of U.S. households.
In the 1970s the institute expanded its areas of interest to develop new management techniques, with the goal of aiding federal and state agencies in improving their performance in delivering their program benefits. These early concerns remain central to the institute's mission today, and the research generated by early institute scholars provided the initial data from which the current databases were built.
In the 1980s the institute devoted much of its resources to producing a detailed chronicle of the urban policy initiatives of the Reagan administration. At the same time, however, other research was still carried out, including an in-depth examination of the proliferation of federal and state programs. One result of this latter research was the recognition that many of these programs were redundant and that overlapping authorities, competing bureaucracies, and a host of contradictory eligibility requirements actually inhibited the implementation of many desired initiatives. To address these problems, the institute developed the concept of the block grant approach to federal funding, in an effort to provide states with greater flexibility in addressing the particular needs of their communities. In 1987 the institute also released a groundbreaking study of the problem of urban homelessness. In 1988 it took on the problem of uninsurance and underinsurance, bringing to public awareness the fact that this was not just a problem for the unemployed but for working Americans as well.
The 1990s saw a further broadening of the institute's interests, when the International Activities Center was launched. In 1992 the Los Angeles riots once again brought the institute's attention to the core problems facing the nation's cities, including the problems attendant on the rise in legal and illegal immigration, particularly from Latin America. Meanwhile, increased concerns about problems facing the nation's courts led to the creation, in 1994, of the Federal Justice Statistics Resource Center, a database of trends and issues in criminal justice. In 1997 the institute published its "neighborhood indicators," a progress-assessment checklist designed to help state and local municipalities improve their performance in achieving social and economic goals.
In the year 2000 the institute inaugurated a new project, Assessing the New Federalism. This program, inspired by the trend toward "devolution" (the reversion of control over social and economic policy to the states), monitors the progress of local and state initiatives and makes that information available to the wider public.

The Bioterrorism Act of 2002 requires that "domestic and foreign facilities that manufacture, process, pack, or hold food for human or animal consumption" in the United States must register with the FDA by the end of 2006.
Uniformity for Food Act: The Uniformity for Food Act, HR 4167 and S3128, would radically change the traditional allocation of authority over food safety among the local, state, and federal authorities. The National Association of State Departments of Agriculture has been actively opposing the Act. The bill would pre-empt all local and state regulation of food.

Nano-enabled synthetic biology
As nanoscience and technology advance, the opportunity to match the scale of biological system components becomes feasible. As a first step, nanotechnology presents the ability to directly interface to the working levels of biology, leading to the emergence of new approaches to therapy and diagnostics. Additionally, the emulation of biological design principles using synthetic components becomes feasible...we consider the potential for a nano-enabled synthetic biology that may be derived from the confluence of systems biology and nanoscale science and technology.
