This bill in the US seems to be in line with the dumbing down/controlling of the nation.

I personally do not think it is just happening here. Yes, many many of us have protested and started purchasing our food through the organic farmers which I now see they plan on surpressing. They want to impose huge taxes on all who grow their own food even small gardens.

I wish more would stand up and tell them where to shove their fines / taxes and punishments

I asked my daughter if she thought it was just OK for them to poison our food and why more didnt protest it

Many petitions have been circulated and sent in but just like everything else, they are buried under the rubble at the white house

I'm not sure if it's the same bill, but a few months back they were trying to push through the "Food Safety Act of 2009". Luckily it did not go through due to the persistence of some concerned representatives.

And speaking of movies, "The World According to Monsanto" is also a very good watch.
