“Bad-faith efforts by biotechnology opponents to portray rBST as untested or harmful, and to discourage its use, keep society from taking full advantage of a safe and useful product. The opponents’ limited success is keeping the price of milk unnecessarily high.” – Henry Miller, NY Times, 2009

I cannot help but wonder if this insight into the marketeers of Genetech, Lilly, and Monsanto who are selling the technology of the day, just as their counterparts did during the early mid-twentieth century.

Trust industry to regulate industry? Or industry to buy its public opinion and science?
Given a choice, I would rather not.
