I do because I don’t look at it as government intrustion. What I find government intrusion is telling me that I can’t buy a bigger than 12-ounce soda. That pisses me off to no end. Giving additional information to people is not a negative. How dumb that you think it is.

It looks closer to 80% Nanny Stater supporters than half. Good old GMO threads! The only topic where Democratic Underground and Free Republic posts are exactly the same!

With some of the decisions Big Gov has made about our food, there could be an argument for this. As I previously stated, I’d much rather this be the result if the free market. However, we must take into consideration that CONgress recently voted to allow chicken processed in China to be sold in the US. The same country in which dangerous ingredients have been mixed with everything from baby formula to pet food. If CONgress allows this, they must be required to label it as such. I don’t want to buy it.

Yeah, you're right, half the people on FR will oppose such labeling and prefer that Big Brother decide what information consumers should or should not have.

It's amazing how some so-called conservatives get confused and think crony capitalism where Big Food and Big Government get together and withhold information from consumers is somehow government intrusion.

It's crony capitalism and the consumer is the loser as usual when CC makes the rules.

Since I have no way of finding out what this food is made of or where it came from, I applaud the gov't attempt to reveal it...
