My heart goes out to all the folks in government who really did their jobs with honor and integrity. Having to hand their position over to incompetent sycophants dedicated to wrecking everything must be unbearable. #Politics
@cassandra17lina When the safety professionals start bailing out, things will be fine, for a while, but after some time without anyone watching, things will start to go wrong. People will die, and it will take a long, long time to get things under control again, if we can.
@EileenKCarpenter I'm talking about people from places like the USDA, FDA Food Safety, CDC, FAA, NHTSA, NTSB and other highly qualified, specialized people you can't replace. If we think the corporations will police themselves, we're fools.
@h8cloz @EileenKCarpenter Actually, corporations that participate in global supply chains will still have to meet international standards for environmental and safety programs and sustainability commitments.
And they'll pay twice what the FDA and NIH and CDC can pay. You won't replace that expertise anytime soon.

And ironically, they will be hired by drug companies.
