Comment Won't matter (Score 1) 446

This doesn't matter. Walmart, MacDonalds and other big retailers will be requiring GMO labeling, rejecting GMO products and they already banned other GMOs (rBGH/rBST). The market place will reach out and slash the GMO producers to little bits.

Our customers don't want GMOs. They vote with their wallet. It's Capitalism with the big 'C' working.

Google is a search engine, an index, not the web site. You, and Europe, seem to miss this key point. Banning Google from showing something in their index does not remove that data from the internet nor does it even remove it from search engines. Other search engines still show the data, the data is still on the original web site and linked to by other web sites.

We're also not talking about false information.

Your argument is a red hearing and false. Your question is not worth answering because it is moot and a non sequitur.

Excellent idea. People should stop fighting wars too.

Don't confuse "America" with "the United States" with "the USA citizens". The laws are pushed by lobbyists for corporations who benefit. Surely you've figured that out by now. The odds of a quiet revolution are nearly zero.

It is a Brave New World where 1984 came to pass and We all simply accepeted it without any revolution.

You're making the classic graphing error of assuming the data set will continue. The reality is hockey sticks and other curves tend to level off at some point. Back in the 1970's they were worried about the Population Bomb. What they didn't account for was that as the level of education went up people had fewer children so the Population Bomb fizzled and the curve leveled off. Same thing with Elvis. He finally realized the error of his ways, got away from all those people who were a bad influence, moved to Vermont, lost hundreds of pounds and is doing great. :)
