The E.Coli (Saintpaul strain) tomato contamination is bad. The WaPo editorial board and others are calling for more food safety powers for regulators. That's fine. We need to keep improving, as we have over 100 years.
Will
they also argue for equal regulatory and inspection power as to
imported food? Will they argue against trade deals that hamper
imposing the same multi-dimensional oversight on those imports?
Of course not. That would be protectionist.
