Monsanto at it again

Despite overwhelming public support and support from a clear majority of Vermont’s Agriculture Committee, Vermont legislators are dragging their feet on a proposed GMO labeling bill. Why? Because Monsanto has threatened to sue the state if the bill passes.

More oppressive American corporate bullsh*t. These people have literally been telling us we have no right to know what they're selling us.

Whilst I don't care about gmo products, if the people want to have them labeled they should be. The topic of whether or not they are dangerous is a whole other factor.
