With food safety bill, U.S. government will spend nearly $1 million per person to prevent food-borne illness deaths :: (NaturalNews) The recently-passed Food Safety Modernization Act, which was passed in order to prevent food-borne illness deaths in the USA, will cost $1.4 billion over the first five years.

The CEO of Apple, of course. That's what President Bill Clinton did when he invited John Sculley to sit in first lady Hillary Clinton's box at his first State of the Union address in 1993. And it's what President Barack Obama did when he invited current Apple CEO Tim Cook to sit in first lady Michelle Obama's box at tonight's speech.
