Is the FDA Starved?

The number of inspectors that are certainly, I mean, my particular wheelhouse is the meat industry. The FDA's most recent budget request, under FISMA, they were supposed to hire an additional 2000 specters and they didn't even ask for any money to hire new inspectors. And also, we spend how much money a year on foodborne illness? It's a, it's a huge sum. We're talking about the highest risk facilities being inspected once every three years after the first four or five years of FISMA.
