Rod,

Why would Australia advocate BSE testing if they have never had BSE?  Does that even make sense to you?

I do not support consumer fraud and that's what BSE testing cattle under 24 months of age is.  The prions are not detectable at that age with the tests Creekstone plans to use so all you are doing is creating an "ILLUSION" of safety. 

USDA is not going to support consumer fraud and I fully support their decision.

Not allowing a company to create an "ILLUSION OF SAFETY" is hardly restricting someone's freedom.  Using your argument, we shouldn't have a Food and Drug Administration approving certain drugs for sale since that's restricting someone's freedom to sell them.  It would be like a diet pill that doesn't work.  Why should the FDA not approve that?  It doesn't hurt anything and creates the "ILLUSION" of losing weight.  LOL!  Same silly argument. 

Marketing freedom does not give someone the right to create an illusion of safety that is not supported by science.

Your question illustrates your stupidity.  Japan has already accepted untested beef and you have offered no proof that the Japanese government is demanding tested beef now.  Why would Japan demand tested beef now when they have already accepted non tested beef before?  It's not like the bse prions will suddenly show up in cattle under 24 months of age now just because Austin Sandbag wants to test.  LOL! 

You're such an idiot!
