Actually, far from "selling out," Rand was actually being true to his Austrian School principles with this vote.
Because let's face it: mandating the labeling of GMO foods is a government "regulation," and according to the anarcho-capitalist dogma of the Austrian School, all government regulations -- not just most -- are bad and evil by definition.
(Never mind the fact that corporations wouldn't even exist in the first place were it not for government-issued charters, and wouldn't be as powerful as they are were it not for court-sanctioned "corporate personhood").

Clear case of being compromised and mind-controlled.
In his speeches I listened to, he was all for eating what we wanted and knowing what it was. The light in his eyes with these things was telling.
Politicians should be the ones who are monitored at all times. Politicians should have zero meetings in private with anyone.
Poor Rand. Poor Dr. Paul.

There were over 300 Amendments to this Bill!
Then why don't Rand and other "Tea Party" Republicans craft their own bill against Monsanto's genetic assault on our food supply?
Why must someone else always be the one to complain about it before they'll even acknowledge it as an issue?
Do they not realize that it isn't just "the poor" who are effected by this?
Is this yet another social problem we're supposed to make go away by parroting feel-good mantras about "liberty" all day long?
For crying out loud, people, your children are eating this crap!

By late 2005, it was well known just how unconstitutional and outright treasonous that disgraceful piece of legislation was...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kNRSs6LsGeI ...yet this fool voted to make it permanent anyway? Sorry, but that alone proves he's yet another blame-freedom-firster who, as such, would rather climb Mount Everest to do the "Sieg Heil!" to the official story on 9/11 than stand still and actually question that official story. It's people like that who've been destroying the Bill of Rights (and hence the Constitution) for the past decade or so, not "protecting" it. The "Constitution" Party no longer has any rightful business calling itself such. If there were truth in advertising, it would be called the Christian Theocrat Party -- or perhaps the Symbol Over Substance Party, since the majority of its members obviously care more about defending mere symbols of freedom than they do freedom itself. http://web.archive.org/web/20070604195626/http://www.house.gov/paul/tst/tst99/tst062899.htm | ||||
