Breast-Feed or Else

The New York Times yesterday ran a story explaining Tom Harkin's bill to put warning labels on cans of formula expressing the supposed virtues of breast feeding. Of course, I find this whole business utterly annoying. For the mothers of multiples, breast feeding, while not impossible, is certainly much more difficult and pretty unhealthy for the mother. In addition, several women don't produce enough milk to adequately feed their children. In any case, it's ridiculous to put a warning label extolling the supposed virtues of breast feeding on formula. Clark has more outrage at this proposed bill.
