all of the data states that's true. it's good for usda. it's good for the industry. it's good for consumers. >> but not everyone agrees. currently chickens zip through factory lines at the rate of 140 per minute giving inspectors one second to view every 2.3 carcasses. high speeds raise questions about human slaughter. they say they are sometimes not rendered sense less before having their necks sliced and dropped into boiling vats. will the newer rules make you feel better and safer about the food you are eating? giving industry more power to self reth late a good idea? for more, paul shapiro, the vice president of paul animal protection with the united states and doctor william claims, the former usda veterinarian for the agency's food and safety service. he con suments for poultry companies. >> joining us from birmingham, her career spanned 44 years and included inspecting poultry on the factory line. thank you for being here. dr. james, the new usda inspection rules remove under 800 inspectors from the process. how is that a good thing? >> since 1957, we have con

money has been returned to the usda. means that states about and utilizing the resources that were available. for example, in new york state 46% of the implementation funds are not being used which it was $2.5 million. dr. wilson, could you speak to what you're doing to leverage the usda dollars to protect tactical assistance to schools to meet the new nutrition standards be? the institute is a national institute. so we go nation wide and wouldn't technical assistance in new york city right now. it's coming from our budget, not theirs. but that has been an issue. there are ways for the states can contract with us to prevent outside contracts from a number of states, using their money, to contract with us to do specific things in their state. mississippi did it. he had some foundation money, so possibly interstate and did colin occurring all over the state because scott want that to be done in his state. california do the same state. california do the same thing where we did 10 culinary trends all of the state, just conce

we stopped by the home of the usda veterinary inspector who retired after the recall.hear that they're in trouble for fraud as well. >> i don't know. i just keep on working. i keep on doing my job. this rges carry >> the indictment says this scheme happened from late 2012 to early this year, all the charges carry sentencing from three to 20 years in prison. the usda has not been blamed for any of this, but rancher bill nyeman says what he wants at the very least is an apology from the usda because inspectors were there on site while all this was allegedly happening. >> that's what's so frustrating. if they were doing their jobs correctly, they might have caught this. >> i reached out to the usda today and they said it's now in the hands of the u.s. attorney general's office, so they aren't saying anything. >>> in another high profile federal indictment today pg&e pleaded not guilty to criminal charges linked to the san bruno pipeline disaster. there are 28 counts including obstructing the federal investigation into the 2010 inferno and then violating the pipeline safet

she didn't wait for the deadline. usdaas a program called healthier school challenge and it's a voluntary program is started before the meal pattern was put into place. many schools but not important tarted with the healthier school challenge include nutrition education, physical education. the institute has a training class for that and so a lot of the schools have started early and got us rolling. they were able to do it. in my experience in wisconsin i left the district for years ago. is that a small rural school district to start my program and pressures and vegetables come on we did is pretty mandatory you have to serve three colors appeared that is what my cokes were told to do an increase produce and fresh fruits and vegetables skyrocketed because it was served an appealing manner. we also hold a major training symposium ever year for reprint in the 40 largest districts in the country together and have these kinds of discussions. no finite in dallas, texas it is working very well. los angeles is doing a good job. th

chicken here is something the usda can't or won't tell us. st of us we have the food and safety director for science in the public interest. welcome back to the show. always good to have you with us. this is an issue important to you as well. i think one. reasons we get so concerned about it is because we've seen all the stories in the past on china and looked to their safety record in the newspapers. things like mercury in baby formula, tainted milk powder. that story about the pig carcasses dumped in the river. rat meat sold aslam be. on and on it goes, bird flu. what would you say we know about china's track record? why would the usda give the green light to bringing chinese chicken into the u.s.? >> you know, we import food from all over the world and many countries are highly developed. they have good safety systems we can rely on but the same is not true, especially some developing countries and china has had a very large number of problems linked to its own food supply. so it is certainly a country that usda should pay special attention

you've got to use all the tools. usda provides us with a lot of tools. 10% of my food comes from usd commodities. >> my friend senator heitkamp who was here had to go preside over the senate, and one of the concerns she has is about the equipment used, but as you look at the equipment you have and the equipment that you're going to need, are the things that will help you in that process? and this is for -- i.c. dr. wilson shaking your head. are th there things we can do to help with equipment? >> i will vary greatly to you and what we do across the country as well, in the training with equipment and that used different equipment, that is an issue. there are a lot of infrastructures in schools that don't have coolers and freezers and schools built with a kitchen. as people begin to progress into different sort of mode in feeding children in our school system, updating equipment, getting your equipment is definitely a need out there that we used to the equipment grants years ago when i first started the business, and it was

the everyday sacrifices. all we ask is things are not taken away to make it hard for us to live. usdawe spent 8-900 on groceries and we spend 600 and we have three children with a fourth on the way and that is all i ask is things are not taken away. >> thanks for the guests for a terrific discussion and we will see you all on line. >> welcome to aljazeera america. i'm david schuster here with the stories that we're following for you at this hour. jets strike an islamic state target in iraq. a briefing is this afternoon, and we'll bring those remarks to you when they happen. and talking about gaza, and the firing has resumed after rockets are fired into israeli and israelis respond. >>> and in hawaii, a

the u.s. marcet, why are you -- market, why are you writing letters now asking for change? >> usda has not let chicken come in yet from china, but they are poiseed. to we don't want it to start, a lot of folks heard the news reports, about a scandal happening in china, with processed chicken products that were going to fast-food restaurants in china, when the usda went to china, they went to check out the food safety system, they went to the planning, said it was run properly they said it was okay. >> they said it was okay, as i understand, you correct me, if i am wrong, one of the plants in middle of that scandal where post dated meat was put in fast-food restaurants in japan, and china, that plant right there, what were they doing there? why the chicken that was post-dated meat post 46 dated? >> i think people are trying to get a handed on, that including company that runs plan, which a u.s. company, a chinese subsize ware. -- is up cid war subcid wear, ta lot of questions figure out what broke down. did was chinese media check posed this there has been a lot of soul searching in

the usda does not really factor in the cost that relatives may add.s not go into university education. maybe because that would be too depressing and what hurt the birth rate. it is a very complex situation. what this does is gives you an overall picture of what does this look like in terms of the cost of raising a child. generally used to cut to a child-support payments. this is where people can see where the temperature is now. do couples think about this before hand? isn't one of the situations where we are going to have a cost and this will fortune between now and when this child turns 18 years old? >> i think they really look into it before they make the decisions. this is the reason why the fertility rate in the u.s. has not been too high recently. it has really went down during the economic crisis. i think this was the reason. for a while they were holding off. ,s the economy is improving while the costs rise they do not rise as fast as before. maybe it will make them more optimistic. reportingrg news joining us from washington. thank you and c

the usda recalled 8 million pounds of meat linked to rancho feeding operation in february faegting food processors across the nation including nestle's hot pockets. federal court documents released today claim rancho co-owners and two employees knowingly process asked distributed meat from cows that had cancer. the humane society of the united states says it is proof our food supply is not always safe. >> in this instance, we're learning about workers who were swapping out the heads of unhealthy cows. cows who were suffering from eye cancer with the heads of healthy cows in order to put profit ahead of the interests of animals and people. >>> federal investigators say this switch and slaughter of uninspected cancer eye cows occurred during inspectors' lunch breaks. a time when plant operations were supposed to cease. court documents say workers directed employees the carve usda condemned stamps out of the cattle carcasses and to process the carcasses for transport and distribution. >> we're very glad to see that federal officials are taking this case seriously. >> reporter: she says whi

the usda calculated, this can vary a lot but the family was three or four kids roughly 22% per child, not altogether. we all know what happens, you do hand me downs for clothing, kids share bed rooms and you go to costco and buy food in balkans that a smaller portions of there is a certain amount of intuitive and as in the same household. >> host: the average spending on one child is anywhere from $16,000 to $19,000 depending on the child's age but that doesn't mean it will cost $35,000 to have two or $50,000 to have three for all sorts of reasons as you said. the additional kid costs less. above is an example for three hypothetical families of the and two parent and middle-income, having more kids costs more spending per kid falling from $16,000 to below $11,000. another one you have in here is where you raise your kids to be less expensive. explain. >> guest: the urban northeast is the most expensive by far, far and away the most expensive and it is followed by the west and the midwest and south at the bottom in terms of regions but then you have a whirl areas at the bottom. that is

the usda has approved china to process chicken and take -- send it so the united states.hought we got chicken from chicken plantness the united states. gerri willis is here. chicken from china? >> processed chicken from china. that's exactly is happening. i want to show you what happens to this chicken. it starts in the u.s. and then -- i'm not kidding -- they take it to china so 57,000-mile trip and process -- 7,000-mile trip, process it there, chinese workers, and end it back here, processed, wrapped -- >> our chicken plucking minds. >> it's frighten and the bad part is you'll never know you're buying this processed meat because it doesn't have to be labeled it's from china. >> china's track record on food safety is exemplary. >> no. not by a long shot. take a look at this list. mercury in baby formula. tainted milk powder. 16,000 pig carcasses dumped in a river. rat meat sold as lamb, and then the painted pet treats killed hundreds of dogs, and bird flu, of course so we're not in control of their -- how they regulate they're plants. it's not our thing. the usda guess o

that is the usda chart. also looks at families that take in, i believe it was less than something like $61,000 per year. interesting about that is also you have a lot more singer parent families taking in less than $61,000 so that throws it off a bit more. a lot more single parent families that are strapped for cash. >> we should mention again the u.s. department of agriculture did this report. why did they do it? >> they do it every year to. it's one of their reports they do every year. sort of they take consumer survey data and they extrapolate what it costs to raise a child. because they have a land in a lot of these programs that help children. you know? school lunches. food stamps,. [please stand by] guest: the usda calculated -- and again, this can vary a lot by family but a family with three or more kids can spend roughly 22% less per child, not all together than a family with two kids. we all know sort of what happens there, you do hand-me-downs for clothing and the kids share bedrooms and you go to
