    Everyone should read The Jungle by Upton Sinclair.

    It was written almost 120 years ago, and shows just how horrendous these working conditions used to be before the FDA existed. Everyone who wants to cripple the ability of the FDA to regulate these plants wants those kinds of inhumane working conditions back.

    It has a socialist message in the second half, but remember - socialism doesn’t replace democracy. Socialism replaces Capitalism.
