FDA is attacking oil companies ... (because they work really well you know) = this is nothing new, they've been making the hoops that wholistic health people have to jump through more and more complicated, all the while, shrinking the box of what is "ok to say" smaller and smaller.   So they can no longer tell you the facts, unless you are face to face whispering in a back alley or something.   But they CANT have my oils!!!  or my herbs!!!

"Tiny" houses as affordable homes?     Good idea, but I would not consider these either tiny or affordable.   Growing up, most of our homes (and my parents kept foster kids, there were usually 6-7 kids always) were around 1,500 or smaller.  And most of the homes cost under $30, frequently minor fixer uppers for under $10,000.   We would very much like to buy a home ourselves.  We've been struggling to get back on our feet and into our own home again for 16 years, but the Ref is not a "fixer upper" guy.
