ReplyObviously the Labor government have never herd of the saying "If it aint broke why fix it" pitty. If they had of three years ago they wouldn't be spending all our tax dollars on boat people. My kids school is missing out on funding because of these bludgers.
1 ReplyYou've forgotten the biggest myth - organic foods are no healthier for you than normal food! Several peer reviewed articles have shown that. However they are typically from lower yielding fields. As a result, more rainforests need to be chopped down to feed the world's increasing population. And before the abuse starts, I eat a lot of healthy foods, relatively low meat diet, I excercise regularly, have normal cholesterol and blood pressure and am within the normal weight range for my height/age.
