The WTO has said that regulations requiring such labelling for all imports are a restraint of trade. If you want to know where our food or ther goods come from you will have to look at labels, and refuse to buy those which are not labelled. There is nothing in the WTO ruling which prohibits "voluntary" labelling, and current US law shoud still prohibit false labelling. So, when we stop buying unlabelled food imports, the WTO ruling will become a penalty for those vendor countries which protested the US law.
Buy local....and BOYCOTT BOYCOTT BOYCOTT EVERYTHING that is not labeld local or US product. There is nothing to say that the US cannot label its products. ??? Please say so.
Sally is 100% right on the money. If a product does not tell you where it comes from, don't buy it.
Another way to handle this is for imorters to refuse to import when the exporter does not want us to know where it is from. We can force this on them by leaving these imports on the grocery store shelves.
This is a moral outrage. WTO has essentially removed the common sense right of a citizen to have knowledge regarding the country of origin for sustenance he will use to feed himself and family?! Many countries have extremely lax food health policies if any, and we're expected to just go along with being poisoned so some Godless, twisted greed driven corporation can make a buck! I'm sick and tired of being treated as a stupid slave by the cult of rapacious vultures running our lives! This is the flesh eating aspect of 'capitalism' we need to shut down!
