Real men like their meat the same as they like their women. Genetically modified, offal and all.

Yeah, I'm going to come home from work and spend 3 hours doing a research project on the content of my food.

If you ever want a peek into the mind-boggingly retarded brain of a Libertartarian, read a full Orruar or Hailto post.

Except that two posts ago, you claimed to have not read the entire post. Do try and at least pretend to have consistent and logical thought flowing through what you call a brain.

Out of curiosity, what's your science/technical background dredge?

I'm just a guy who has an interest in nutrition. I was a professional Chef for many years. I managed a High School Cafeteria. I traveled to Mongolia as a consultant and Chef instructor, where I opened a upscale Western Restaurant and trained the staff of about 12 restaurants. etc....

I'm currently an IT student studying Information Assurance/ Network Security at a local tech college.

I don't have to be a scientist to care about what is in our food or what my family eats, and I don't think it takes a genius to figure out that there is a correlation between GMO and rising health issues like cancer and allergies.

So I chose to get informed on the issue,

So should everyone. Educate yourselves. And don't be fooled into thinking the government in any way, shape or form has the average food consumer's best interests at heart.

Except being completely informed on every single purchasing decision is a full-time job. I know in your fantasy Libertard world, every person is willing to come home from work and do a 5 hour research project on every consumption decision they'll make. But some of us work for a living, and not smoke pot all day and plagiarize Milton Friedman articles on Everquest forums like you.

And I laid out an idea of how the free market could solve the problem using labeling, but you probably ignored that part due to inability to comprehend the sheer genius of it.

We live in the information age. The pro-government argument regarding difficulty of obtaining information is becoming more and more ludicrous. Get with the 21st century. In order to get the proposition passed, you needed half of California to agree. That's 20 million people, roughly. If it takes 100 man hours to determine if a single product is GMO, and you could only convince 5% of those who would vote on such a thing to put in a single hour of research, then you could correctly classify 10,000 products. Or we could pass a law that will probably cost tens of millions each year to implement and maintain. Do you not see the sheer absurdity of such a program?
