Now yagi you are dead on this one. Trump own stock in baby formula? Read my long response on a different thread where you said I told a lie. Clarity is back so,,,see their are issues both sides should agree on with no problem. Quit getting mad at your threads quite awhile ago rifle. You never mention children or babies. Are you close to anyone in these two groups?
well that is just stupid. No doubt a mothers milk is the best thing for a baby. Truth be told both sides of the aisle are influenced by Big money interests like this. Needs to stop.
I imagine one of Trump's hand-picked cabinet probably found themselves in the pocket of some corporation who would be negatively impacted by healthier babies. Another staff member that will have to be drained from the swamp I suppose. This administration is a complete fiasco.

To a certain extent, I can agree. But this administration is doing things far, far differently - not in a good way - than any other administration with regards to this stuff.
cheeto has made countless, horrendous decisions that could lead to immediate gains in some areas for the U.S. but will lead to much more damaging impact for later generations. This is a pattern with this administration in many areas.
Let's point out what a non-issue, or at least misrepresented issue, this is. It is being painted as this horrible, big, rich country is opposing this to make companies rich at the expense of these poor, little, 3rd world countries. That's a terrific misrepresentation. Mothers in 3rd world countries dominate the list of countries with the highest breastfeeding rates, generally in excess of 95%.
The lowest breastfeeding rate? The United Kingdom, where only 1 in 200 women breastfeed their child through the first year. Ireland is also bad.
I don't know the real reason why the U.S. oppossed this, don't know that I care since the problem of non-breastfeeding is a 1st world, not a 3rd world, issue. The UK can afford to fund their own awareness campaign.

I think the sensitivity goes back a ways. Companies like Nestle have been accused of spreading poor information to third world countries to drive sales of formula all the way back to the 1970s...

It's clearly an attempt at that. Baby formula is a $70 billion industry with only a handful of giant players, many of whom are in the U.S. Encouraging breast-feeding is a huge detriment to the success of these companies. Hell, why else would the U.S. have fought to change the wording on some of this stuff?
As are the U.S., Canada, France, Denmark . . .
This isn't rocket science. If some huge companies are in the baby formula industry and the leading world health organization is trying to push breastfeeding instead of formula due to its health benefits, who would be at risk of suffering here? The baby formula companies. If some of those top companies are in the U.S., why would the U.S. be opposed to pushing a healthier and cheaper way of doing things? Doh!
The fact that the U.S. was also blackmailing poor countries into not supporting the measure is even more unethical.
Rifle breast feeding is force fed to new moms in the US. Sure the formula industry would love to make everyone use their product but it’s the exact opposite of reality in the hospital setting with regards to new moms.
Also the article you linked clearly states that the formula lobby
Although lobbyists from the baby food industry attended the meetings in Geneva, health advocates said they saw no direct evidence that they played a role in Washington’s strong-arm tactics.

Really? That's terrible. It's just so unnatural.
What’s your point? What does that have anything to do with the article or point of contention?
YAGS - what's your hot take on moms that breast fed? We know about all that "baby damage" to their lady flowers, but what about the breasts? I need your input on this.
Heh. You said "nipples" and "aroused."
Unfortunately, I've had too many experiences with post-birth nipples. Anything over zero is "too many."
Most women, but not all, see significant differences in their chesticles after breast feeding. Many of them end up with deflated tires, or pancakes, as the cool kids call them. But those things can be easily changed with a good titty doctor.
What I don't like are the changes in the areola and nipples. After breast feeding, the Montgomery glands (I wish I could have part of a woman's reproductive body named after me) become absurdly large . . . and, frankly, gross. The areolas also frequently expand and never shrink back to their better days. Just as frequent is the increase in length of the actual nipple.
Every six months, an Asian doctor well outside of my typical age range travels to me when she needs a fill-up. She has a smokeshow body, but she also has two children. Her nipples are the size of my pinkie when aroused. According to her, they didn't used to be like that until after breastfeeding her youngest child.
There are some exceptions, but for the most part, pregnancy and breast feeding destroy fun bags.
If the genetic mutation to shun postpartum women that exists in you existed in early man, the existence of humanity would be tied to women evolving to having litters. The disease and high death rate among newborns thousands of years ago would have caused the extinction of sapiens. That would have left a real possibility of a lesser intelligent specie to be the dominant animal. Just think...a world where wv-fan was smart...comparatively speaking.
JK
I like my milk from the tap
And why did you refer to her as an Asian doctor. You could have just said doctor. Is her thing sideways?
It's important for the story. Asian women take care of their guys. They are prone to be givers . . . unless it's extra napkins, extra soy sauce, or anything that may cost them one cent.
