Mr. Wallbanger and Mr. Johnson:
Be advised that the President of the United States has issued a Directive that could negatively impact our public image, and could delay FDA approval of our corn products in the United States. This
Directive requires that all foods containing GM ingredients should be
labeled in a clear manner, so that consumers can make informed decisions
about their purchases. While we in the legal office applaud his interest in
free-market economics, we feel that these labels might be misinterpreted
as health warnings, causing American consumers to avoid our corn, even
though no negative health effects have been proved in our product. We should chart a legal agenda to put a stop to this before it starts. Product labeling in Europe has cost our Corporation billions of Euros. Nobody wants to eat anything that is genetically modified. The legal department suggests the following rhetoric be applied to any public statements concerning this issue:
"America is not a kingdom. The President does not have the legal
power to give such a command, and we intend to do everything in our
lawful power to assure that America's people do not lose their God-given right to
make a free choice in the marketplace. When the public can decide for
itself what brand to buy, we believe they will choose Econocorn, because
we are the best. No misleading labels should be allowed on our
products."
A lawsuit has been filed in Circuit Court, Econocorn vs The
President of the United States of America. Hearing is scheduled for August, 2013.
Has Bill crunched the numbers yet?
