...spread this bizarre, implicit and never outright stated lie that less regulation will lead to healthier and better food

The FDA has nothing to do with either of these topics.

Feeding a fecal slurry to inoculate piglets is practical and typically directed by a company veterinarian due to a viral disease.

The density of the US poltry industry (proximity of large farms in a small area) combined with migratory water fowl and a rapidly mutating virus is why we have no eggs. There is currently no effective avian influenza vaccine.
