Americans want stricter food labeling to avoid GMOs and chemicals.
That will happen and when it does it will have a profound effect. We'll have more healthy food available because we'll have a much better idea what is healthy and what is not. People aren't as stupid as some commenters want to contend. As a Monsanto guy once quipped words to the effect that if GMO content had to be labeled, they might as well put a skull and crossbones on the package.
Back to topic. Yeah, polls can be misleading and bogus, but the number and range of polls that Chris identified does have weight, which is probably why he bored even me with them. I say it again, these polls indicate that the bulk of folks aren't stupid, not as stupid and avaricious as the pols and their fossil fool corporate handlers. They may not be paying the best attention, but they aren't stupid and as weather anomalies, eco-devastation and economic decline mount, I agree with Chris that we are reaching critical mass. When more folks realize what Germany and much of Northern Europe is doing without any more economic dislocation than we are experiencing and more future possiblity, they'll realize that we have to get off the pot. They already know that something is very wrong and definitely not working.
