The 5,000-word article, titled "RipOff at the Supermarket" and excerpted from a forthcoming book on the food industry by Pop-Sociologist John Keats (The Sheepskin Psychosis, The Insolent Chariots), does not mention Safeway specifically.

...Birch Bayh (D-Ind.) an original supporter of the bill who withdrew out of public pressure, has said that with a few amendments S-1 could be workable. Spokesmen for the American Civil Liberties Union claim that only with 2600 amendments would the bill be palatable. S-1 is so packed with repressive measures that it should not even be debated on the senate floor.
