U.S. Opposition to Breast-Feeding Resolution Stuns World Health Officials

Story
quote:
A resolution to encourage breast-feeding was expected to be approved quickly and easily by the hundreds of government delegates who gathered this spring in Geneva for the United Nations-affiliated World Health Assembly.
Based on decades of research, the resolution says that mother’s milk is healthiest for children and countries should strive to limit the inaccurate or misleading marketing of breast milk substitutes.
Then the United States delegation, embracing the interests of infant formula manufacturers, upended the deliberations.

Breastfeeding babies is a waste of a perfectly good set of titties.

So this is about Trump colluding with infant formula manufacturers?

Why is such a resolution considered necessary?

What will this “resolution” actually do either way, regardless of the US stance?

The benefits of breast milk over formula are highly overstated.

Seriously, you really need the UN stamp of approval to give your baby some titty?

I’d love to get all my water from natural springs but that doesn’t mean I should be discouraged from bottled water.

We shouldn't be telling women what to do with their bodies, right? Right?

Boils down to this: a lot of socialists don't want to spend money on formula so they are pushing breastfeeding as the only legitimate source of infant nutrition.
There are a lot of women who can't breastfeed and shouldn't be treated as bad mothers because they use a substitute.
Also the article is very biased. They went on to trash the Trump admin for opposing modifications to patent law (saying it is due to being in the pockets of big business) while ignoring the incentives to pharma investment and research that patents provide.

Why does this need a resolution? Educate people and let them decide for themselves.
Ugh. Liberals trying to put laws to everything.

Their surprise isn’t shocking:
The rest of the world thinks Americans are unduly preoccupied with bosoms

We need companies to make money selling the milk.
The cows are not needed.
