Of course he is, he's good at farming. But just from looking at an excerpt of his writing I found lies, advocating unsafe food production, and apparently something about child labor laws, and I don't care how they relate for farming, you don't make kids work jobs meant for adults.
Wow. Now you're coming across as the extremist. What lies? What unsafe food production? He outright demonstrates in the book how the production is not only safe, but safer than what your regulations call for.
So when you try to steer the discussion towards "REGULATION: GOOD OR BAD?" instead of what MY specific topic was, "FOOD REGULATION IN 1906: GOOD OR BAD?" you're creating something that can literally never end.
A fair point, yes, but the discussion of Food Regulation 100 years ago cannot be held in this sort of forum without the discussion of what regulations accomplish beyond their stated intent.
My entire point here is that market forces in 1906 could not change the quality of food, and the government had to step in. There's loads of evidence for this, and I have not seen a single person provide even a miniscule bit of counter-evidence.
We're still waiting to see the evidence of correllation.
