Food Labeling 'To Lead Farming Revolution'
Britain’s food labeling law provides details about carbon emissions and animals welfare, information that is expected to bring change to farming and retail practices.
My prediction of Britain's future based on the headline above...
1] British farmers, burdened by the new labeling requirements, pass along their increased expenses in the form of price increases.
2] British citizens start to buy more non-British grown/raised foods.
3] Farmers (like corporations in the U.S.) are chastised for shipping all the good farming jobs overseas.
4] The British government (the initial cause of the entire mess) steps-in with subsidies, penalties, laws, tax incentives, debates, panels, studies, investigations, and tons of other wasteful activities in an effort to "fix" the problem that has been wrongly blamed on British farmers.
It has happened with U.S. manufacturers and industry, it will happen with British farmers. And now that total governmental employment in the U.S. has surpassed that of employment in the real economy, we may have reached the tipping point of no return. As I think of our current situation, this image comes to mind...
