Default Should Formula have a warning lable???

This is from my Parenting magazine that I got today and I thought it would be a great discussion here:

Should formula cans have a warning lable that it's better to breastfeed?

Please explain your answer.

Mine is no. I see too many women feeling guilty enough about not being able to breastfeed that I think it's wrong to rub it in their face on the formula can. I know far too many breastfeeding Nazis out there that have judged me as bad because I don't breastfeed. They don't even care why I couldn't, apparently I was supposed to put my child at harm instead of doing what was medically necessary. So a warning on the can would just make people feel even more bad for not being able to or chosing not to and frankly it's no one's business but my own what I feed to my child.
