The FDA is not there to protect you..they protect 'big pharma' There is a revolving door between the executive round table and FDA headquarters.
There is certainly no doubt on that. Unfortunately, the idea they'll be disbanded is absurd since this Government never gets rid of anything, and most of them think this one is a real good idea.
Personally? I think the FDA does more to keep good drugs and treatments OUT than they do to
allow safe ones onto the market. 
I was noting that moving to regulate stem cells wasn't a step in a new direction, since they already are the authority on Plasma donation, which occurs in the poor neighborhoods in almost every fair sized city in the nation.
