Re: Not all that accurate
This BBC interview you mentioned seems remarkable. Wish you had some reference to it: if I knew who the "wonk" was, it might tell me a lot about where he is coming from, and I would love to see a transcript.
As for U.S. interests, who else's interests should U.S. foreign policy promote?
I would have no problem with labels on GM foods, and in a true free market, no one would be forbidden from labeling food any way they wanted, as long as no fraud was involved. But I can understand the resistance of food manufacturers to this, considering the stunning butt-ignorance of most people on the subject. It ranks up there with cloning as a massively misunderstood scientific issue.
