...and Obama would be a fool to sign it into law. You'd be a fool to sit silently by while this "you have a RIGHT TO REMAIN IGNORANT" law is shoved down your throat, and the throat of your children and your children's children, on forward into the future.

Find a petition urging the President to veto it, and sign it. Now. Time is super short.

This law is a giant step forward in the march toward Corporate Fascism, now steadily creeping into governmental CODE REGULATING THE PROLES (you).

Act now, or forever remain ignorant (by law) about what corporations, in their insatiable hunger for profits, are doing to the stuff you eat.
