[quote:Anonymous Coward 27872843:MV8yMDUzMjEwXzM0NTE4ODYyXzREQkE3RTBE] [quote:Anonymous Coward 16674316:MV8yMDUzMjEwXzM0NTE1OTA4Xzg5RDgyN0Y=] [quote:Yes,believe it:MV8yMDUzMjEwXzM0NTE1NzI2X0Q3OERFMEYw] Obama is a joke and the state of our national affairs confirms this. YES he came into office taking on alot of problems, but unfortunatly his answers to those problems did not help. Sorry you tried but goodbye, but Nope! the US elects him again. The definition of insanity is repeating the same behavior expecting different results. This is no longer the US that we were all raised to know and I think it is going to get worse before it gets better. But, sometimes you have to tear things down to build them back up. All I know is that I will fight for the rights that I have and I will die keeping that freedom, if I have to. [/quote] THE MOST RECENT STANDARDS FOR RADIATION IN FOOD WERE SET IN 1991. I THINK THAT WAS BUSH, NOT OBAMA. [/quote] Instead of doing much to try to protect their citizens from Fukushima, Japan, the U.S. and the EU all just raised the radiation levels they deem “safe”. Nuclear expert Arnie Gundersen says that high-level friends in the State Department told him that Hillary Clinton signed a pact with her counterpart in Japan agreeing that the U.S. will continue buying seafood from Japan, despite that food not being tested for radioactive materials [see this]. And the Department of Energy is trying to replace the scientifically accepted model of the dangers of low dose radiation based on voodoo science. Specifically, DOE’s Lawrence Berkeley Labs used a mutant line of human cells in a petri dish which was able to repair damage from low doses of radiation, and extrapolated to the unsupported conclusion that everyone is immune to low doses of radiation…. Indeed: American and Canadian authorities have virtually stopped monitoring airborne radiation, and are not testing fish for radiation. (Indeed, the EPA reacted to Fukushima by raising “acceptable” radiation levels.) http://www.washingtonsblog.com/2012/03/california-slammed-with-fukushima-radiation.html [/quote]

The difference between Japan and the United States is kind of startling. In Japan, at this point the permissible level of radioactivity in food is 100 becquerels per kilogram [...] In the United States the permissible level is 1,200. So Japan’s limits are 12 times stronger than ours, which means that we could very certainly be importing food from Japan that’s considered unfit to eat there.
