From Screwed:
"The powers that be are running roughshod over the powers that OUGHT to be. Hartmann tells us what went wrong — and what you and I can do to help set American right again."
From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Thom is a national treasure. Read him, embrace him, learn from him, and follow him as we all work for social change."
From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Thom Hartmann seeks out interesting subjects from such disparate outposts of curiosity that you have to wonder whether or not he uncovered them or they selected him."
Getting rid of trans fats will lower cholesterol and thus the need for cholesterol pills will fall further driving down healthcare costs.
It's a step in the right direction and any improvement is better than none. At least we can munch our tortilla chips safe in the knowledge they're transfat free, but if the non-transfat soybean oils, corn oils and the corn in the chips are GMO, then what?
From what I've read there are a considerable number of people that are against the banning of trans fat. To them I say eat the stuff to your hearts content!
