Baby chow...

Baby formula shortage... Some points to consider

We are told only FDA approved baby formula is safe for our babies. Never, ever, make your own because it's DANGEROUS since it's not FDA approved. Never mind it was the norm from 1960 and back, as doctors gave out formula recipes.
Wait... why is there a shortage? Well, because the FDA shut down the largest plant of the largest supplier in the nation, for the chiiiiildren. This was in *February*, and still not fixed.
Wait..... why did they shut it down? Well, it seems it was putting out baby formula with deadly bacteria in it. A whistleblower let it be known, but the FDA refused to act till they had a few little teeny bodies to answer for.
Wait.... why did the plant put out poisonous baby formula? Well, it seems the FDA cited them for the bacteria issues, and then failed to re-inspect the plant for TWO ^&%#%$@@ YEARS.
Wait.... why can't we just get it from France or Australia or someplace? Well.... the FDA says there stuff hasn't been te$ted to exhau$tian yet, and we all know French babies are different than American babies.

The lesson here is obvious. Never ever fail to trust the government to keep you safe, and for GOD'S SAKE don't even TRY To feed your kids the way Grandma did hers. Even for a few weeks till production is up again. It's dangerous! Just ask the FDA.

Robert Heinlein

"Do not confuse "duty" with what other people expect of you; they are utterly different. Duty is a debt you owe to yourself to fulfill obligations you have assumed voluntarily. Paying that debt can entail anything from years of patient work to instant willingness to die. Difficult it may be, but the reward is self-respect.

But there is no reward at all for doing what other people expect of you, and to do so is not merely difficult, but impossible. It is easier to deal with a footpad than it is with the leech who wants "just a few minutes of your time, please — this won't take long." Time is your total capital, and the minutes of your life are painfully few. If you allow yourself to fall into the vice of agreeing to such requests, they quickly snowball to the point where these parasites will use up 100 percent of your time — and squawk for more!
So learn to say No — and to be rude about it when necessary.
Otherwise you will not have time to carry out your duty, or to do your own work, and certainly no time for love and happiness. The termites will nibble away your life and leave none of it for you.

(This rule does not mean that you must not do a favor for a friend, or even a stranger. But let the choice be yours. Don't do it because it is "expected" of you.)"
