How did Obama's new regulations for the FDA and more money help with the salmonella

problem with the eggs? Much of the new money at FDA is directed at food safety, which has become a top priority of the Obama administration after a series of deadly outbreaks of foodborne illnesses. A Salmonella outbreak earlier this year that was linked to peanut products killed nine people, sickened at least another 700 and triggered the largest food recall in U.S. history. Under the proposed budget, $259.3 million would be added for food safety to pay for stepped up inspections, better surveillance of food safety problems and enhanced ability to contain outbreaks of foodborne illnesses. The spending plan proposes that the FDA charge the food industry $94.4 million in new fees, money that will be used to register and inspect food manufacturing facilities, issue export certifications for food and animal feed, reinspect facilities that have failed to meet FDA safety standards
Looks to me like more regulations, and more money really didn't help
Lawgirl..

You believe that nobody follows the current standards, and instead of enforcing the ones we already have..

We should create more...

And that makes sense to you? Really?
