Just maybe a movement is starting
Mickey D has announced that in future it will only serve milk that comes from cows free of the growth hormone.
If this keeps up Monsanto is going to lose its rBST sales and that will be a damn good thing. We are the only western country that allows its use. It is banned every where else in the western world.:) |
It is strange how no one will ever comment on a thread critical of those bastards at Monsanto.
|
Its that old American exceptionalism. We have to do just the opposite of the rest of the world. If they think its bad, we'll do it in a heartbeat. If everybody else is using it, it will get hung up in FDA red tape here for decades. Of course, corporate crony capitalism and profits rank far above what is good for the people.
|
The revolving door between Monsanto and government accounts for a lot as well. We have found that the dairy that supplies High's does not use that shit on their cows so we always get milk there.

I drink almond milk. Hopefully I will still be able to afford it after the California drought. My big dairy fix is Tillamook cheese, and their coop is growth hormone free.

Convince the wingnuts that all of this GMOs and other crap in our food is some kind of federal government food poisoning plot, foisted upon us by the dreaded Obama and they'll go after it with a vengeance. Until then, they will assume we are just stupid Libtards trying to destroy "job creaters" like Monsanto.
Maybe it's time to do what the rightwing propaganda machine and entities like Monsanto and Koch Industries do; Recognize what these people are and USE it, rather than fight it? Dave |
Lobbyists and Free Speech, a deadly combination.
|
What riles me is that if the neighbors GMO crop cross fertilizes yours they can come on your land and then sue if your crop has been corrupted by theirs. Maybe the should have made some GM bees that would not cross fences.
But what they did in Miamisburg at Mound was a criminal act. |
