I think that many people stand to make a lot of money off of more mothers
breastfeeding; insurance companies (fewer sick babies), corporations (fewer lost
work hours...fewer sick babies), the government (less formula to buy and lower
doctors bills for those on government assistance).  The trick is to convince
these entities that they stand to make money (i.e. "a penny saved is a penny
earned") and then have the ads and campaigns financed by their very, very deep
pockets.   How do we do THAT?
