What he said.

The astounding thing is not that the proposition didn't pass, it's that there are thousands of ill-informed voters across the country blaming California for making the right decision at this time.

You can link Huffington Post's fancy diagrams all you want, but to the populace that's truly informed on the details of Proposition 37, you're a complete fool. You fell for the straw man argument, and embody the meat-with-eyes mentality that enables larger businesses to make massive capital gains - which they absolutely would have if this proposition passed as it was written.

Thankfully, the larger part of California is smarter than you are, and knows that voting is a much more powerful tool than being informed by colorful Huffington Post diagrams.

The entire thing is a big business scare tactic and you're falling for it. Again, fortunately not the entirety of California fell for it.

Looks like all these green countries fell for it too.

Look man, it's a world market.
When Hershey sells a candy bar in Europe they don't use GMO's because if they did they would have to label it as such and no one would buy it.

So why should they sell the good stuff in Europe, and sell the GMO poison here in the states?

Because they can and they make more profits.

Why would they spend millions fighting prop 37?
Because it protects their profits and that's the number one priority to them.

That small business labeling burden argument is complete bullshit

Yea but then the cell structures at least resemble something digestible. Keep in mind digestion is one of the most straining thing your body does, which is why intermittent fasting makes you live longer.

If the Monsanto guide book says that we should use the scientific method to gain true knowledge, I'd say it's a pretty good book.

There is a problem with ethics though when they are applying the scientific method about potentially toxic intake to unknowing human participants which is actually considered illegal in the academic realm.

Right, but that's not what we're discussing.
