So I've tried wading through parts of the USDA's proposed National Organic Program at http://www.ams.usda.gov/nop/rule.htm While it's reinforced my Libertarianism heavily, I do realize that utopia is not an option and we've got to work with the gang of armed thugs we've currently got. Therefore: I've seen a bunch of lists of things people don't like about the program, does anyone have a list of those things cross-referenced to the appropriate sections? For instance I've seen one flyer complaining that sewage could be used as a fertilizer, yet the preamble (which goes on for tens of pages) clearly discounts this. But there are other things I don't remember from those lists that bother me more. Anyway, help would be appreciated.
