Obama warns of US food 'hazard'
A US salmonella outbreak in peanut products this year left 600 people sick.
President Barack Obama has said the US food safety system is a "public health hazard" and in need of an overhaul.
He sounded the warning during his weekly radio and video address, as he appointed a new head of the federal Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
New York Health Commissioner Margaret Hamburg has been named for the post.
Mr Obama cited a string of recent food safety scandals including a salmonella outbreak in peanut products this year that has been linked to nine deaths.
The president said recent underfunding and understaffing at the FDA had left the agency unable to conduct annual inspections of more than a fraction of America's 150,000 food processing premises.
"That is a hazard to public health. It is unacceptable. And it will change under the leadership of Dr Margaret Hamburg," Mr Obama pledged.
Did you see my added italics? "Underfunding and understaffing"... that is political code for more taxes and more government employees.
Just in case you were wondering.
I thought we were going to stop this fear talking?

Yes, indeed, you have identified the newspeak for more funding, more jobs for liberal activists. Pull on the heart strings, then pull on the purse strings. Who could dare oppose this?
Indeed, the solution does not address the problem, but it creates jobs for fellow travellers, liberals, activists, and other tapeworms.
Well said Fenris, tapeworms is a perfect description for those profit from fear and create their own jobs with taxpayer money, sad thing is our grandchildren have to pay for this junk!
