The reason they give a hechsher on items that are cholov stam on the ground, despite the fact that it will preclude a portion of the Jewish population from eating it, is not because that population can always make do with cholov yisroel items from another hechsher. It's because they decided on a psak that cholov stam here is acceptable.
According to your logic, there is no reason for OU to distinguish between Cholov Yisroel and Cholov Stam whatsoever. They should just label it all as Kosher dairy.
It seems that OU recognizes the both valid positions, and caters to both of them.
The OU does not have a responsibility to make sure the cholov yisroel Jew is taken care of.
Why not?
The airline will only do that if they sense the demand from their customers.
Not if they think that they are dealing with a bunch of misfits, who seem to be at odds with the largest Kosher organization in the world.
It almost seems like you already have an opinion about the OU in general, and you're carrying that over into this discussion.
I am sorry you get that impression, and I can confirm that aside for my gripes regarding this particular issue, I don’t have any other concerns with them.
I don't see why their giving a hechsher to cholov stam in the air being a money grab is any different than saying that their giving a hechsher to cholov stam on the ground is a money grab.
I never said that giving a hechsher to cholov stam is a money grab. I did say that the OU doesn’t seem interested in making the right stand if it will be a more expensive one.
