You make me laugh sometimes. I wish I could count the number of times you insult people, call them Luddites, tell them to get a brain, talk down to them, etc. Kind of funny watching you make fun of other people. Especially people that aren’t quite as smart as you. Personally I don’t get a kick out of telling people how stupid they are. I am not a Chemist. I don’t go home and memorize the Periodic Table of Elements. Talk about absorption rates with my family at the dinner table. I’m just a Luddite who will admit when I’m wrong and let other people have their own opinion and not chastise them even if they are wrong. But I digress.

Let’s look at clothes. Clothes are marked “Made in (Whatever country the clothes are made)” I don’t know about you but I’m not keen on children being forced to work in clothing plants in foreign countries. I like keeping my dollar here in the US if possible. However, if there were no tags saying Made in XXXXXXX, I would never know that child labor rights might have been abused to make the clothes I buy. In that same regard, why should I have to worry about whether a product has GMO ingredients?

Dupont and Monsanto can sell GMO seeds all day and I could care less. The way I see it, if it’s such a great process, tell the world about it. Shout it from the rooftops. Brag about it. I can’t understand why a Nobel Prize winning process is kept under wraps. You don’t see many parents of Honor students not telling about their son or daughter’s success. Instead you see them brag about their kids. Monsanto should do the same don’t you think? Tell the people that the product is eating is available because of GMO’s. Those that don’t care whether the product contains GMO’s can buy it to their heart’s content. Others who don’t care for GMO’s can make that decision for themselves. It’s just three little letters.
