CO, all 37 does is guarantee that we will have the necessary information to protect ourselves.

No, it doesn't. The labels will be so ubiquitous that you won't be able to avoid them. At that point, they'll tell you nothing. Products like Bt corn will be hidden in a blizzard of meaningless warnings.

If the info that 37 produces is not enough, then more can be done later, but it is best that we not wait until the horse is gone before securing the barn door.

What it does is give companies like Monsanto cover. It harms local producers who need GMOs to stretch out the harvest season while leaving the big guys free to invest in Mexican ag and use the pesticides they want and of worse kind and call them "GMO free." Their filthy workers will put their fecal matter on the food, and you'll be happy.

Bullcrap! - Monsanto is the opposition (and useful idiots that love their busswords).

The GMO products available are essentially untested, and to a large degree untestable, because the effects can be generations away.

Nobody should be using these seeds without at least a two mile barrier, and legal protection for the small, honest farmers that surround them.
