We can only do the best we can with what we have from where we are. We are making progress. We must believe this. The internet is an amazing tool. Let’s not give up. It’s a war, sadly, but we will come out on top. I think us food bloggers need to keep on keeping on. We can only do the best we can with what we have from where we are. We are making progress.

All organic life, the eco-system, bee farmers, seeds, organic growth is at stake. Read this bill, especially the Codex Alimentarius guidelines! Rise up, tell your reps we have had enough!

It takes a little extra work, but we have to do it. Also, if you live close to your capital, drop in while they are out of session. March, make placards, take a group. We have 3 weeks to push back. Tell everyone you know! There is no time to waste. Please remember snail mail is more apt to be taken seriously than an email when corresponding with your rep.

This bill gives all too much power to the bureaucrats. They are pencil pushers who do not understand the plow. At best they are from Big Ag, or is that at worst. Either way it is the same-o-same-o with them. They're doing their best to shut down small farms and hand over the goodies to Big Ag. The big corporations want that last 15% of the market firmly under their thumbs. We will lose choice in the market and food security as they consolidate. What's left? Fight it in the Senate.
