    Let's understand that families did just fine long before "formula" came to the market. They commonly mixed regular milk, full cream, and karo syrup.

    I would advise using goat milk over cow milk, as goat (and sheep, donkey, etc.) milk doesn't have the common allergens in it that can cause colic, indigestion, promotes diabetes/other metabolic syndromes, etc. And raw is best if one can find it. But if you must use cow milk, you can buy a big can of NIDO milk powder (or similar) from many grocery stores for about $15.

    If I had a baby I'd mix goat milk/powder and/or coconut milk, full cream and/or coconut cream, and date syrup or coconut sugar (you can use raw unfiltered honey after a year).

    Baby formula is a big, expensive corporate scam, and it's a bad food for babies. They survive on it only because they're young, have a high metabolism, and need SOMETHING to eat for energy. Most babies can be placed on solid foods as early as after a month or two, and breast milk is good to continue alongside this if available. Otherwise, ditch the toxic formula and save yourself a lot of money.

    Biden did not cause it, greedy Capitalism did

    when a business screws up, the right blames the government

    agree

    "For Donald and Ivana Trump, breastfeeding was ‘disgusting’ and ‘totally unsexy’"

    https://www.mercurynews.com/2018/07...astfeeding-was-disgusting-and-totally-unsexy/

    "Trump once called a lawyer’s desire to use a breast pump “disgusting,” while Ivana wrote in her memoir that she didn’t breastfeed Donald Jr., Ivanka and Eric because she regarded the practice as “unsexy.”"

    He's not here nor did he write the post to which I responded, you did so try again

    So we are supposed to lessen our dependence on foreign sources of vital products so we are not dependent on them but we are supposed to remain dependent on them at the same time? We had no shortage of baby formula before Biden's FDA shutdown this plant with no plan to make up the production or fast track getting this one, which never produced ANY contaminated product and not one baby got sick from a single can of their product, back on line.

    There was no contaminated formula, no baby got sick off their formula.

    The Biden FDA used it's regulatory power and then sat back on it's arse getting the plant back up and operating again, the business did not screw up the FDA did.

    Babies get sick to their stomachs all the time for a variety of reasons.

    The investigations found no cause and effect.

    "Abbott issued the following statement:
    "We are sorry to hear about Luca, and we hope he is doing well now. We value the trust parents and caregivers place in us, and ensuring the safety and quality of our products is our top priority. As part of Abbott's quality processes, all infant formula products are tested for Cronobacter sakazakii, Salmonella and other pathogens, and they must test negative before any product is released. No distributed product from our Sturgis, Mich., facility has tested positive for the presence of either Cronobacter sakazakii or Salmonella.""
    https://abc13.com/similac-recall-formula-recalled-how-to-tell-if-is-houston-baby-sick/11596075/

    "Abbott's statement added no Cronobacter sakazakii bacteria or Salmonella were found in any of the company's testing of products distributed to consumers, and genetic testing of the Cronobacter sakazakii samples found at its Michigan facility did not match microbes from reported cases."

    why would Biden be required to help the business clean up their mess? do we bill them for the services?

    sounds like you want socialized baby formula due to Capitalism being a failure here?

    Why just the radical left?
    Surely one element of a radical anything is the unsophisticated and superficial appréciation of merely what you want to be true. Any proper examination might reveal faults in the ideology and we cant have that, can we?

    Who devised a system supporting a vital product in which the closure of a single plant could outstrip the capacity of the remaining plants to back fill. Sounds like the handiwork of a free market loathing Democrat. The corporate fascist regime that produces infant formula is made up of 3 manufacturers, Abbott producing 45% of the total. When the shortcomings of the fascist system came to light in 2011 the Obama-Biden regime did nothing.

    Because his poll is dishonest. Most republicans don’t want to ban abortion for incest or rape.

    So when they’re asked if they want to ban abortion yes or no, they are conflicted on their answer. For the vast majority of the cases they want abortion banned because it’s being used as a form of birth control. But they don’t want it banned in cases of rape and incest.

    So you get skewed polls like the one he’s referring to because they are formulating the poll question and answers in a way that doesn’t give an accurate picture of the positions held.

    Then they are TWO-FACED HYOPCRITS..

    If one wants abortion banned but make an exception for rape or incest then it's obvious Anti-Choicers ONLY want to ban abortion to punish women for having consensual sex.

    So my original statement : """that is exactly how righties think of women....animals to be controlled"""

    IS CORRECT.

    For political traction. Something to antagonize and oppose the left on. Someone mentioned the story of the anti abortion picket woman smuggling her daughter into the clinic and then going back out the front to picket.
