Let’s use some common sense about the GMO labels

..................................................................................................................................
The proponents say that the GMO labels won’t cost anything.  Let’s think about this, though.  Are those labels going to appear out of thin air?  Hardly– they have to come from somewhere!  Somebody has to design them– that’s a cost.  Somebody will have to decide where on the packaging they will be placed– that’s a cost.  They will usually be printed using ink, and the ink will cost money– that’s a cost.  Governmental bodies will have to rule on all those points— that’s a cost.  Cost + cost + cost + cost = COSTS!

So don’t try to tell us that the labels won’t cost anything.   There are always costs involved with things like this!
