Well, dairy farmers still use BGH, and this was over 12 years ago and most milk drinkers are not dead...
What a horrible misrepresentation of the truth. Many large retailers refuse to sell milk from dairies where bST is used. For example, here in Oregon, Tillamook products have no bST. Neither does any milk sold at Safeway or Wal-Mart, two of the biggest grocery chains in the area, and many other grocers like Albertson's, Fred Meyer, Market of Choice, and so forth promote and market bST-free milk. I don't actually know where I would go if I wanted to obtain milk from a bST-using dairy.
This stuff's banned in the rest of the modernized world. Banned in the EU, banned in Canada... Over half of all milk sold in the USA is bST-free, too.
While you might be technically accurate on the rest of your post (which I highly doubt but don't feel like getting into), you are straight-up wrong on BGH/bST.
