Now they've got Whole Foods in their pocket as well. Total respect to the Haitians for burning those seeds, and hope for the rest of us that we learn to do the same.

It is if you're Monsanto.

for small scale home garden, yes, there are lots of options for seeds. For large scale food production, no, there are not so many options. the world's entire food supply is controlled by a very small list of corporations.

9 out of 10 seeds in the WORLD have Monsanto's name on them. They entered farmers into contracts that will result in them losing their farms, money, and livelihood if they EVER break the contract and use anything other than Monsanto seed. The hybrid seeds have a kill gene in them that literally kills the plant before new seed can be made. Farmers and even civilians are being sued right and left for growing other than Monsanto Seed.

in other words, 9/10ths of the worlds grain and veggie supplies are controlled by a company that can kill off the entire supply of food to ALL of us. Please do some research into this. It is very scary. Ask yourself, where does your food come from and why are you allowing genetic engineers to modify the seed so that it cannot reproduce naturally. Cancer? Think real hard on what food you are putting into you body.

Monsanto rules all of our food. Think about that.

The haitians burned their seeds. We all should.

Or just let this thread die, and lets focus on Obama or something.

Monsanto was behind the recent food safety bill.

They've been busted killing people's entire crops in a modern day "witch test" -- if Monsanto suspects their seeds are growing in a farmer's field, they fly over the field and spray Roundup on it. If the plants die, then the farmer wasn't using their seeds. If the plants don't die, the farmer gets sued.

They will plant a field of their genetically modified "patented" crops next to a small organic or small family farm. Then, when bees cross-pollinate the fields, Monsanto SUES the small farm for stealing.

This is one of the reasons why I laugh at democrats who think their party is "holding big business accountable" and all that nonsense. It was democrats who pushed this food safety bill through, handing a huge win to Monsanto, who basically WROTE the f**king legislation.

Dadzilla, we can start by trying to take back our food. The haitians had a whole lot of that seed delivered to them by the USDA and Monsanto last week. The farmers gladly accepted it (they didn't really have a choice), and took the seeds back to their farms. There they burned every last seed.

EVER LAST SEED WAS BURNED.

They have been growing organic maize for years. They did not allow Monsanto to take them over.

We are trying to do the same worldwide. Organic farms are popping up all over the place (even Fish is harvesting his own deer, right?), and we are putting them out of work.

Our biggest block to this is the polarization that our corporations and government instill in us. See above how already this evil Monsanto has been shifted to the "evil democrats." Now it's a political thing again as usual and some liberal will be blamed for it all. Oops, they already are as this thread has shown.

and as usual you are focusing on me and polarization rather than the issue. Piss off and forget about ME dude. Read up on this stuff and make up your mind if you care, are concerned, and/or how you plan to try to change things for the betterment of YOUR family if at all.

Knock off the "us and them" crap, dude.

Monsanto just convinced the worlds largest "organic" food provider to buy into them. Now they even own food that people THINK is good for them.
