10. I am bothered by the many Progressive states that are voting down GMO labeling laws.

If they don't want it, they don't have to read the label. I know the Japanese do their own GMO inspection on organic foods..

We need at least a reliable labeling process that is honest about what is in the product. With corn tortilla chips, the corn is cooked in a lime water solution and then ground, pressed cooked and fried and salted. There is very little lime since it is washed away and the oil is what soaks into the chip. Add to that a very small amount of salt and presto, they do not have to label the country it is grown.
