"carrots were about 20 cents more for a 3 lb bag"

Now you've really got me laughing. Twenty cents more for 3lbs of
organic carrots? Maybe if they're trying to get rid of them, but
certainly not typical.

"Oh yeah....I'll buy regular produce."

WHAT? Almost all of them have been treated with pesticides and/or
herbicides! So, now what is unacceptable for me to use to spray a few
weeds with is OK to spray a crop with and eat? See, this is a classic
example of whacko's. They come to some crazy justification in their
own minds, then rationalize their behavior. Some of the products
you're eating may have been sprayed with Roundup, just like I just used
on my driveway.

"The cost isn't so significant to them that it would jack up the price
of food as you say it will."

Yeah, right. I'd like to see you grow thousands of acres of soybeans
without using any chemicals. You're in the dream world. Without the
chemicals, a lot of people in the world would be paying 3X for food and
others would be starving. But I don't worry too much about that
happening, cause kooks like you won't ever be in control.


" Chemical companies sell products to poor countries which have been
prohibited from use here, including DDT in some cases. That's a good
reason
to put the brakes on those practices. "

So, I was right, you are willing to see people in poor countries starve
and die from malaria to support your extremist views. BTW, isn't it
time for you to go to a PETA meeting or Earth Liberation Front meeting?
You know those guys that like to destroy property, burn builidings and
businesses down, because the folks that have a different view are just
"thugs"?
