What is your problem! You have one primary job, and that is to protect public safety. You are not authorized to take risks with my health, nor do you have the authority to force me (through ineffective labelling policies) to do so. This should be a no-brainer for you people. You work for me, the public, and we have made our wishes very clear. I don't give a damn what Monsanto has to say to you about the profits they intend to make poisoning me. Do your job. Sincer Catherine Svehla
