public comment on federal register of 7/2/07 vol 72 #126 pg 35909 aphis 7 cfr part 305 docket 2006 0050 this agency only talks to profiteers and so the regulations that they routinely allow are in the profiteers favor. they do not adequately protect the public and that is what is lacking in all of these regulations. these regulations in fact have allowed hundreds of foreign insects to enter this country, which are causing millions of trees to be cut down, invasive plants to take hold requiring billions of dollars to destroy, and endless foreign insects to destroy native vegetation. the regulations are always too lax and the taxpayers end up paying through the nose for it. we need tighter regulations than this proposed one, which is simply another easy way out for profiteers. this agency needs much more consumer input than is presently located on any of the boards that make decisions on our food. we may not pay that much at the market for the foods, yet the side effects are killing american taxpayers. no industry should be regulated only by those who profit from it. get more consumers on these boards. b. sachau 15elm st florham park nj 07932
