The FDA also pays for the testing - the cost is shared.

From the FDA @ https://www.fda.gov/Drugs/ResourcesF...cm279676.htm#2

Q: Does FDA test drugs?

A: No. It is the responsibility of the company seeking approval to market a drug to conduct laboratory and animal tests on the safety and effectiveness of a proposed new drug and then to submit that information to FDA for review by CDER physicians, statisticians, chemists, pharmacologists, and other scientist.

Yes, but that is extremely limited, limited to intentional acts, not negligence.


Also, one aspect of this you don't consider is who hears the case when the government is sued in these limited cases: Why non other than the government itself. Speak of conflict of interest!

The government is sovereign- they have no legal obligation to waive their immunity at all. Yet, they have decided to do so in limited areas.

Federal judges have no problem ruling against the government if the facts and law support it.

Under our current system there is little to no government over site of supplements. These private companies are filling a useful purpose.

I was speaking of the concept in general, not specifically about supplements.

Wait, what changed after the long video was released? It just proves that the mocking kid blocked the path to the Lincoln memorial like it was originally said. Were you expecting something different?

It showed a dumbass coming over and taunting these kids. You blind as well as incoherent?

It still comes down to these people looking for other jobs. That would be the smart thing to do. Why, putting government employee ought to get hired right away.
