[Lapg] A leverage point we all can do something about

[Cory Brennan]

Labeling GMOs in California is a key leverage point to breaking the death grip that companies like Monsanto have on our food supply. We can take our food supply back from people who could care less about the quality of it. 

I know that most of you are doing quite a lot about that in various ways. I'm hoping that you all will also feel that you can take the 1-5 minutes or so that it takes to sign the petition, and forward this to others. Maybe you feel it won't make a difference but I think that letting the powers that be know how many people are against what they are doing on this front is an essential act. If you live in Calif, please vote yes on 37, and get your friends to do the same. The fact that Monsanto and others are fighting it so hard means they know it will affect sales.

This is a fast way to see who is paying to keep GMO's in your food a secret - no surprises there:
