Well, I'm not sure the author of the Snopes article is completely correct or whether there are key points of disinformation in her presentation. I know for a fact that Snopes is fallible. Notice the weakness of this argument: > Claims that in various European countries vitamins are now selling for > a horrendous amount or are available only by prescription are > strawmen, because the U.S. (as does every other nation) makes its own > laws, and the new laws it is proposing in S. 722 and H.R. 3377 > specifically and deliberately omit mention of vitamins or minerals, > both of which are already adequately regulated. So, I should ignore it if Europeans are already suffering a loss of access due to CODEX? I've heard some first hand reports from Europe that say they're having problems, so this does not comfort me. There is no harm in alerting our representatives to the FACT that interfering with our freedom to choose among health supplements of any kind will be a solid electoral disaster for them, whichever of the two dominant parties they're from.
