Jesus people, the government isn't the only way to change this. Quit being such a fucking sheep. You can form an advocacy group to boycott any products that refuse to voluntarily label their foods. You can simply choose to individually boycott these products and encourage others. There are many levels of involvement and work you can put in to help make this come about.
People just want to be lazy and have daddy government do all the work. The problem with that approach is that it ends up costing more overall, as you're not only paying for new government workers to enforce the new law, but you're also paying higher prices on all products which now have to conform with the law. And you know the biggest companies would get around the law somehow anyway.
Quit being lazy. If you really care about this issue, then take your own steps to solve it. Don't expect government to solve it for you. The recent hurricane on the east coast serves as a great example. People who expect government help in the aftermath are typically the worst off. Those who take responsibility for themselves and their neighbors are the ones who are doing just fine.
