In reply to the discussion: Since a lot of people want to label GMO food here is what I propose. [View all]nationalize the fed
(2,169 posts)16. I'm with Tulsi
Jul 23, 2015: Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard (HI-02) calls for common-sense labeling of GMO foods and urges colleagues to vote against the Safe and Accurate Food Labeling Act, also known as the Deny Americans the Right to Know (DARK) Act, which would roll back years of progress in ensuring that food with genetically engineered ingredients is properly labeled.
"The DARK Act actually stands in direct contradiction to the wishes of almost 90% of Americans across the country. This legislation makes a mockery of transparency and leaves U.S. consumers in the dark."

Unless you won the Nobel Prize for biotechnology, you aren't persuasive here.

I really feel no need to persuade anyone who never made a persuasive argument to begin with

How about a label with the amount of pesticide residue as confirmed by an independent lab?
