Subject: 12-30-20 re: proposed 'Uniformity in Food Product Expiration Dates Placement Act'
December 30, 2020
Dear President-Elect Joe Biden,
Best Wishes to you as you look forward with great enthusiasm to your truly great Inauguration Day on January 20, 2021.
One additional public-policy recommendation I would like to offer you for your very innovative Presidency:
You might want to support a proposed change in U.S. Food and Drug Administration regulations that will require each food-product manufacturer to place the expiration date for that product at the upper right hand corner of that item.
When I shop inside a supermarket in Austin, I often devote a lot of time to attempting to identify where on the package or container the expiration date is printed before I can then decide whether to purchase that item.
Placement of expiration dates on food products currently varies widely: Sometimes they are printed underneath the product, on its bottom; sometimes they are printed at the lower left side of a product; sometimes they are printed at the lower right side of a product; sometimes at the upper right side of the product; sometimes at the upper left side of the product; and sometimes at the very top of the product container or package.
I am hopeful that some enlightened consumer-friendly member of the U.S. Congress will, with your kind support on that, propose a new bill with a title such as "Uniformity in Food Product Expiration Dates Placement Act". The proposed new legislation could also require that the ink used for printing the expiration date will not fade and disappear before the product itself actually expires.
President-Elect Biden, I also urge you to as soon as possible publicize a new e-mail address or new website that any and all persons in the USA or elsewhere can use or visit in order to help American society make urgently-needed improvements as soon as possible.
The proposed new website could bear a name such as "YOUAREOURBRAINSTRUST.COM", which will convey your very enlightened message that every American citizen, regardless of their socioeconomic status and regardless of whether they have a college degree or Master's Degree or PhD, can potentially contribute invaluable public-policy ideas to our nation's political leadership.
The proposed new "YOUAREOURBRAINTRUST.COM" website can brilliantly highlight your alternative vision to the famous "Braintrust" that several previous Presidents, including President Franklin Delano Roosevelt, have relied on, and that emphasized consultation of professors at prestigious universities.
Your proposed new website can also promulgate the message to all American citizens, all visitors to the United States, and all friends of the United States living in foreign nations, that "President Joe Biden wants as many public-policy ideas from each of you idealistic and conscientious persons of any and all backgrounds that you are willing to offer him. You can send President Joe Biden your e-mails at any hour of the day or night, any day of the month, any month of the year, and he and his White House staff will be thrilled and delighted to review each and every one of your public-policy suggestions."
Sincerely and Best Wishes,
