Huh, sounds like what the USDA is trying to do with the National Animal ID System (NAIS). They are even using the same slant of 'global market' when most of us small-scale soapers (or farmers and pet owners in the case of NAIS) are attempting to stimulate the LOCAL economy and could care less about it on a global scale. Its unconstitutional and totally like our favorite Uncle Sam.
What concerns me is that this legislation does not define what constitutes a cosmetic item because I was under the impression that soap was not a cosmetic. Thats like NAIS which has been presented under the guise of disease prevention and 'bioterror' (puleeze!). The draft plan does not define exactly what a disease is. Funny, the raw milk legislation in my state defines everything in exact terms except for disease when it was introduced to prevent disease also...
Scary, scary stuff.
