"textContent": "Hoocoodanode that cuts to the USDA safety program would result in more instances of tainted food?\n\nCould Upton Sinclear please pick up the white courtesy phone?\n\n> The number of complaints filed about the safety of meat, poultry and egg products jumped nearly 40% last year, from 1,443 to 2,016, according to a new federal report.\n>\n> The report comes a year after the Trump administration approved some of the most sweeping staffing cuts to the U.S. Department of Agriculture in recent memory.\n>\n> Between January and June of last year, USDA reduced its workforce by 18%. The Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS), the agency responsible for placing inspectors in slaughterhouses and processing plants, lost about 9% of its staff.\n\nIt's almost as if meat packers are nut universally businesses run by executives with sterling character.",
