OTOH, I would certainly trust elite groups who can make food safety
determinations for everyone. Maybe the FDA... oh, well, never mind.
Come to think of it, why not just kill all the stupids? Take your
lefties, greens, socialists, communists, luddites, anti-globalists,
people who worry about GM foods and put em all in vast camps till they
can be disposed of. I mean, they can't be educated, they are, by
definition, opposed to noble extropian goals of long life, freedom and
opportunity for everyone, so I say let's line em up and shoot 'em.
