So-Called "Railway Safety Act" Constitutes a Political Handout to Big Labor That Does Nothing to Improve Safety At All

America as we know it was built largely upon and because of our rail industry, and today it remains a pillar of our economy.

Unfortunately, a destructive proposal before Congress misleadingly named the "Railway Safety Act" (RSA), part of broader surface transportation reauthorization, threatens great harm to our railroads.

A law student in England is considering legal action if Nestle fails to apologize and adequately compensate her following a KitKat bar mishap.

"The loss I have suffered is of monetary and emotional significance."

Citing a 1930s case to support her claim, Ahmad wrote, "The truth of the matter is manufacturers owe a duty of care to consumers. The specific duty you owe is consistency in your manufacturing process. The failure to take due care in the manufacturing process resulted in a product being defective."

Ahmad has not ruled out taking the matter further.

“Nestle has a huge following and I don’t think these mistakes are acceptable,” she says. “I’m trying my luck, if you don’t ask you don’t get.”
