iospace posted:Food industry is a weird one with regulatory capture. This was pointed out over in the gray forums, but letting regulatory capture slide more than it already has is pretty much going to end up in a The Jungle 2.0 situation. Mind you, it's worse with the FDA than the USDA. Who summons me USDA has much worse regulatory capture problems than FDA, due to more direct crossover in purpose; USDA's literally got segments devoted to promoting US ag industry. Could you link me to these gray posts?

USDA runs SNAP, probably the biggest single handout to AG producers the feds make. That doesn't mean SNAP is a bad thing in any way other than it doesn't do enough for recipients.

FAUXTON posted:it's vague and makes me suspect vox is losing his edge as a scholar of rhetoric. I'll try to contain my pedantry to a single post here. Lemme know how my edge looks. FDA is, historically, specifically a consumer protection entity - they're responsible for regulation and safety. While there's been some deterioration over time (OTP's going to be a big problem), the agency's been fiercely resistant to capture compared with other federal regulatory agencies, principally due to its lack of direct market facilitation obligations, internal firewalls and a history of hiring analytic and policy staff directly out of school. USDA is simultaneously a consumer protection and a "market facilitation" entity, and has been from the start. USDA's had much worse capture issues over the year because the organization has heavy industry crossover at all levels, and the confluence of interests makes it easier to rationalize capture scenarios. The pinnacle of this are the "commodity checkoff programs", which are the pure domestic corporate promotion organizations I was referring to. USDA is responsible for things like embedded meat facility inspection staff, and it's true that for the most part those have been run well and independently, with industry buy-in (though a big part of this just was reversed). It's also true that USDA does a tremendous amount of good by propping up and stabilizing the US ag sector and the food supply, both at home and abroad. There are public health and environmental factors we could go through here, but the upshot is USDA's got a lot more capture issues, principally because of the tensions in its role. I could compare this to FAA with some just incredible ye olde legal history and corruption that might get invoked w/r/t Trump, but that's a whole new level of derail. edit: god loving dammit PCjr sidecar stealing my thunder Discendo Vox fucked around with this message at 17:07 on Apr 15, 2019 |
