I don’t know about the others, but these four are certified liberal fk wads, who push their BS scam “organic” food at prices 4X higher than “non-organic” products - as if their cow sh*t was better than the same cow sh*t used on “non-organic” farms. Total frauds, hypocrites looking to enlarge their bottom line - and get a leg up on their competition via their pretentious moral superiority

The very large food manufacturer I had been associated with engaged in no such foolishness. Unfortunately, I see the co is moving headquarters from Omaha to Chicago — so we’ll have to wait and see whether they stay conservative.

The companies listed are known advocates of Leftist causes, and donate handsomely to those causes.

I wouldn’t put much stock in their opinion on much of anything, however I’m concerned anytime a Leftist with access to lots, and lots of money, thus influence has something to say about my freedoms.

You know who really controls the “food industry”?

Farmers.

Who know “climate change” is called “weather” and stuff like this letter gets scooped up and spread on the fields.

The problem is that these folks are NOT uninformed...

They know exactly what they are doing and will not be satisfied until they own us all in every way that matters. They may already be there, if you have the nerve to move the curtain a little and see what’s behind it.

Anyone that still thinks big business is a friend of personal liberty needs to obtain a clue.

I’m in the middle of the corn belt. Our farmers feed more people than anyone on earth. They are the front line of agriculture. These people keep themselves very well informed on anything affecting their business. I don’t know a single one that doesn’t know that “climate change” is a hoax.

“We are asking you to embrace the opportunity presented to you in Paris, and to come back with a sound agreement, properly financed, that can affect real change.”

...

Properly Financed. Those are the key words and most likely this means these companies have found a way to steal billions from the taxpayer.
