People do use a car in many scenarios where walking or public transport is just fine and it is the same on this whole powdered milk industry.

More than half of parents and pregnant women exposed to aggressive formula milk marketing

The only difference is that I don't see the "wheelchair industry" targeting people who can literally walk on their own.

There is a huge difference here and more and more this industry is making people replace breastfeeding to buy their formula instead.

And it's not me saying this, is the WHO itself

Don't you think that many of those people think they need the formula because they were brainwashed by capitalist propaganda?

I'm not missing the point, I don't know how is it where you live, but in many places there are human milk banks for people with real problem on breastfeeding

If you are a Nestle fanboy then that's on you

“False and misleading messages about formula feeding are a substantial barrier to breastfeeding, which we know is best for babies and mothers,”

OK but breastfeeding requires breasts you know? And that energy has to come from somewhere?

Shit time is money as some say, and very few mothers are given the opportunity to properly raise their children

Stealing on the other hand really is 100% free, and easy!

Its really funny youre just pro breast milk not anti stealing, but hey still a lot of people arent given the time to breastfeed and its taxing on the body, so ideally give everyone all options freely.

But as always - fuck Nestlé, amen

doesn't work for some mothers, through no fault of their own. not to disagree with the sentiment, just to remind that it's not an option for everyone :)

Yes, except for the time when

the mother have to continue to work to survive so she does not have time to breastfeed
the workplace does not allow the mother to pump while at work
the mother is too stressed or can't feed herself properly which leads to her milk supply drying out
the nurse at the maternity just start giving a bottle to the crying baby rather than taking the time with the mother to initiate the milk production. Which leads to the milk supply to never really start properly
.....

Breastfeeding is possible if and only if the mother is well taken care of, by her family and by the society.

The main benefit of formula is that now the society can continue to exploit women even directly after birth and the baby will still survive.

Someone stealing formula is not someone who is too lazy to breastfeed, someone stealing formula is someone who has to struggle to survive rather than spending time bonding with her child.
