Banning of labeling of rBGH milk in effect puts millions of Americans into a human experiment with genetic engineering, exposing them to greatly increased risk of cancers. The Nuremberg Code makes clear that experimental subjects must give informed consent.

Mr. Stoltzfus added up losses for Mark Nolt:
"Trepass on private property, private personal merchandise stolen, being deprived of a significant amount of hard work he and his family put together. He is being deprived of the opportunity to market his product now, they are throwing it away. It's a shame."
Mr. Nolt did not have a permit. He has twice lost thousands of dollars of work or material, and faces jail.
Monsanto sells rBGH-milk associated with cancers, Clinton hired Monsanto employees which approved their own genetically engineered product, Hillary Clinton has been silent up to today about the risk rBGH poses to women, PR firms strongly push the milk on all ages. None face jail or fines for altered facts, for PR campaigns encouraging even children to drink rBGH-milk, or for banning labeling of it, which has put the entire US population at medical risk for years. Monsanto, the Clintons, Burson-Marsteller and Goodby, Silverstein and Partners are all making millions.
Mr. Nolt, released after being taken off by state troopers, refused to accept a ride from them. He started walking. Friends gave him a lift home.
While liberals do not typically accept government pronouncements on many issues, they seem to routinely accept at face value the FDA's or USDA's ascription of causes for diseases. I will be writing more on this topic, because the government (on behalf of corporate interests) is manipulating the public (especially educated urban people who trust science almost implicitly) with "scientific" warnings about food-borne diseases, just exactly as the government manipulates the right through fear of terrorists. In both cases, the government uses fear to whip up demand for actions which are often unconstitutional and give government more control over the population and give corporations massive hegemony over its small competitors.
It should be noted that the raw milk "issue" is not about the safety of milk at all, for any safety concern with raw milk can be resolved in 5 minutes by slight heating, whereas as the cancer risks with rBGH are enormous and cannot be eliminated. In fact they are increased by heating. Raw milk is being targeted as a danger - despite humans around the world depending on it for millennia - not because of any actual health threat but because it offers dairy farmers the ability to be entirely independent of the corporate food system. The threat of raw milk is not disease (in fact, it is healthier than pasteurized milk) but the challenge it represents to corporate control over food.
