I do not even know where to begin with how horrifyingly stupid this is. This is why we will not survive this century (at this rate if we make it through this decade it will be a miracle). And for the idiots who make claims that it is about feeding the world, that has already been proven to be BS, organic farming does not that no frankenfood and all of those third world countries have rejected GMO's, even the farmers in Haiti refused it saying it would be worse than what they had just went through. GMO's is a recipe for disaster, it's suicidal, and make no mistakes about it, it is about absolutely nothing but money. And someone needs to put a stop to it NOW.

"Organic"* farming is for self-aggrandizing liberal trash who can afford to waste 30% of the crop to pests. If it worked so well, Africa wouldn't be in a constant state of famine. Corn has been "genetically modified" for 10,000 years, yet you eat it. All the cereal grains, identically sized fruits that ripen at the same time, chickens with oversized breasts, are all "genetically modified." We just have better science now rather than trial and error. The grapefruit, banana, corn and broccoli were created by humans from inedible precursors. And Haiti? Seriously? They manage to be poorer than Cuba while being friends with the US. They're the last people to take advice from on any subject.

*All food is "organic." We can't digest inorganic material. The theft of this word for new age pseudo-scientific BS is one of the things that actually will lead to our end.

That said:  EWwwwwwww

I can see it being useful for kids, but it's rather icky from an adult POV.  Also, most of the immunities are passed from mother to child.  The milk is only a carrier, not the cause.

I felt compelled to respond to the comment, but the article is interesting too.

You "home eded" your kids? I hope their spelling, grammar, punctuation and phrasing are better than yours.

Also, the lot rent they're paying exceeds what I pay for my mortgage on a house 5X that size. They don't actually "own" a home. They own a trailer on someone else's land.

Then, the new laws on child products may put their little business under. I disagree with these laws, but compliance is something all businesses have to deal with. They may be in a world of hurt shortly.

I also wouldn't allow the kid to stay up there for "2-3 days at a time." As someone else said, he's living like a squirrel. Also, fire code in almost every jurisdiction requires two escape routes from all sleeping areas. He seems to have one ladder entrance only, and that directly over an ignition source.

As a cabin for a summer camp, it's smaller than either of my tents. As a house, it's smaller than my garage and of questionable safety.

Snark: For people who don't care about money, the "left" sure spends a lot of time worrying about money--other people's money, and how to get their hands on it.

If rich people own most of the businesses, generate most of the GDP and pay most of the taxes, it's hardly a surprise that the politicians respond to them.

The unions shot themselves in the head repeatedly in the 70s, insisting that the US should just practice isolationism and pay semi-skilled workers a "living wage" that in some areas is more than that earned by degreed professionals--doctors, engineers. A decade later, Japan owned the steel, auto and electronic industries because they had the work ethic without the greed.

This is not to say we should emulate Japan. But that was the threat at the time, and the unions failed to even acknowledge it, much less respond.

I worked at FedEx during the UPS strike, when the Teamsters spent 6 months trying very hard to convince FedEx employees to unionize. They offered a deal that was actually LESS beneficial than FedEx already delivered. Then they made their power grab on the freight industry, only to harm UPS's market share and employees, while empowering FedEx and several small, now large, trucking firms, who responded to the crisis.

A decade later, I found out the key bargaining point was control of pension funds, which is possibly a good idea. However, that's not what they presented, not what they fought, and not what they accomplished.

The unions have failed at least as much as the parties.

In the meantime, American Idle is sure raking in the bucks from the morons, isn't it? How many of those viewers can name a single Senator or Justice?

And this is on top of the numerous naive elements of the "Story."
