Who says the free market doesn't work? The forces of the free market are actually making headway against the fascist-like actions of the federal government being the strong-arm of the private sector (hello Monsanto, Pfizer, Goldman Sachs, Exxon Mobil, General Electric, etc...)
It didn't take government to 'force' these LARGE alternative food chains to reject GMO salmon even before the FDA approved of it.
Keep getting informed and keep voting with your dollar, maybe this ship can be turned around after all.

this has nothing to do with free markets...
koch brothers are for free markets that way they can make more money...
free markets just allow rich people to get richer...that is the goal for them.
this is about GMO's and i'm thankful that these businesses are stepping up, that is awesome, thank you

just what exactly are you talking about here?
If you don't understand the true nature of this government and how the federal govrent is merely a paid thug for corporatists, then you won't get any further explanation.
You simply don't understand how free markets truly work. It is not a sin to get rich selling products or services that people are willing to voluntarily pay for. It is however a sin to use abuse bribe and extort your way to a monopoly of force to WILL others into your way.
All this time you're cheer leading Obama, he sells you out by telling you how he is your friend and gives huge tax breaks to your friendly global corporatists.

I do not trust your style...
your style is like bush/raygun...
sounds good in theory, but in practice there is a HUGE gap between rich/poor...
basically the tea party= rich/poor class system..
tea party is for no min wage, no welfare, etc.etc.etc..
you and I know this.

wall street drools over the free market idea..
why would you allow that?
Yesterday while on a playdate at the lake, Vince from De Dell Seed Company, Canada's only NON GMO corn seed company called me to support the march and Americans finding out about GMOs. He emailed me this stunning report, clearly showing the nutritional value difference between GMO corn and NON GMO corn....
GMO Corn has 14 ppm of Calcium and NON GMO corn has 6130 ppm. 437 X more.
GMO corn has 2 ppm of Magnesium and NON GMO corn has 113ppm. 56 X more.
GMO corn has 2 ppm of Manganese and NON GMO corn has 14ppm. 7X more.
Look at the levels of Formaldehyde and Glyphosate IN the corn! The EPA standards for Glyphosate in water in America is .7ppm. In Europe it is .2 ppm. Tests showed organ damage to animals at .1ppm of Glyphosate in water. This corn has 13 ppm!
In another study taht Dr. Huber reported, .97 ppm of formeldehyde showed to be toxic in ingestion to animals. This corn has 200X that!

No they don't, they actually drool over government's monopoly on force aka purchased thugs. A free market would've let the big banks fail, would've let GM fail or go bankrupt and re-organize. Of course, you didn't know that. Bush and Obama both supporting bailing out 'too big to fail' entities is something that you unknowingly support. Wall Street executives counted on the government to bail them out, not the free market. In the free market when you gamble and lose, YOU LOSE. In fascist America, when you gamble and lose and somebody in the right positions say you're 'too big to fail', apparently YOU WIN. Get your facts straight, as in, stop making things up.
I don't want to bash you but you really don't even grasp these simple concepts.
If you don't even know the difference between laissez faire and crony capitalism, how can you intelligently debate it?
Its not even bad that you don't understand it, its that you pretend that you do and attack something in which you have absolutely no idea how it works.
Taking things that other people told you and regurgitating it is a dangerous thing because eventually somebody will challenge you on that and you will not know how to respond and end up sounding silly, like what is taking place right now.
And saying 99% of the human population doesn't agree with me doesn't strengthen your argument in anyway, in fact it makes you seem even more silly because you're just slinging poo and hoping it will stick. Nobody believes in ridiculous things like that. How do I know that? 99% of the human population told me so and that makes you 100% wrong. See what I did there? Yea that is how silly you sound right now.
