No, whereas everyone saying mandating labeling is an authoritarian government act and they would rather live in freedom where companies don’t need to label, I say if people organize and want to pass laws mandating labeling of x, they should be able to do that...but when that Law doesn’t get passed because a special interest spends hundreds of millions lobbying and lining pockets of politicians and uses the same arguement was every other special interest (ie gun lobby, tobacco lobby, sugar lobby, big ag lobby) its a shame.
For the record I never once sided with gmo labeling or not, only agreed with OP that labeling drives consumer behavior, and if people want labeling they should get it. It’s everyone else who attacked me as an authoritarian for taking the side of consumer who want labeling...which I subsequently suggested is ironic that people who would take the sides of big corporations and allow them to operate as they wish over what people want is the opposite of freedom and is in fact authoritarian.
