Consumer rights, corporate neglect and government inaction

Posted by Justin Jeffre

Consumers in the US aren’t allowed to see labels that tell them if their food is genetically modified, if their meat has been cloned or if the tires they are being sold are too old to be safe. If people in other countries don’t put up with this, why should we? A presidential candidate once said his biggest regret was; “the American people can have anything they want. They just don’t seem to want much of anything at all”. We must demand our rights!
