the people of eating food that is not contaminated, who have no choice but to feed their children contaminated food, that it's the people's fault.

Are you aware of how many times that nonsense has been used to try to dismiss this issue as unimportant?

Here's what we the people have done, well Democrats I should say, to try to make it unnecessary to drive cars. We've elected DEMOCRATS.

Now explain how well that has worked to help people have the choices they clearly want so they do not need to rely on the only thing forced on them to survive in this society?
