That’s a problem conservatives have. We tend to believe in “business” and dis-believe in gov’t. Remember the tobacco cancer reports? Cigarettes should have been put on the fast track to extinction decades ago. Sometimes the sky really is falling.

Thanks for the reply. However, in this day and age, I trust business more than I do government?! Not that I trust either very much, but I have absolutely no faith in what we are being told by this administration. Ex. the Swine flu—I have no idea where the truth lies.
However what scares me even more than government is the facist/socialist/marxist types that inhabit Green groups. Rush has said the Environmentalist movement is the new home of socialists since communism fell in Europe. I think the outing of Van Jones bears this out.
I personally have many more concerns regarding my future than GM food. Our country is about ready to go down the drain....not going there in this post, but I think yu know what I mean. :(
BTW, as I understand it, the GM technology in this country have not been incorporated into food for human consumption anyway—unless you are talking about all forms of hybrid plant breeding like seedless watermelons.
I agree we have bigger problems. But I think people playing with the building blocks of life is like monkeys playing with loaded guns in a kindergarten. It ain’t “if”, it’s “when.”

Well, seedless watermelon is clearly the work of the devil and would never have been accepted if people still had taste buds!
