Help stop former Monsanto VP from attaining top position at the FDA - sign the petition

The one man who may be responsible for more food related illnesses and deaths than anyone in history, Michael R. Taylor, has just been promoted from US Food Safety Czar to Senior Advisor to the Commissioner of the FDA, a position which would enable the giant biotech company Monsanto to silently and legally feed cancer causing vegetables to every living person who is not 100% strictly organic.

President Obama has appointed the former Monsanto Vice President and lobbyist Michael R. Taylor to the throne. This is the same man who was Food Safety Czar for the FDA when Genetically Modified Organisms were allowed into the US food supply without undergoing a single test to determine their safety or risks. This is like putting a terrorist in charge of the world's food supply. What will the cancer numbers look like in 2016?

The GMO nightmare all started with the Dan Quayle led FDA/GMO marriage. Under George Bush Senior's Administration from 1989 to 1993, Dan Quayle single-handedly catapulted GMO's into existence through FDA's anti-consumer right-to-know policy, which stated that GMO foods did not have to be labeled or safety tested. Yes, you read that correctly: There is no safety testing required whatsoever to take some Agent Orange pesticide and genetically mutate the seeds of vegetables in a chemical laboratory so that nothing on planet earth will eat the plant that grows from the ground except for all the humans who have no idea what happened.

Michael Taylor is part of a revolving door at the FDA, where Monsanto Execs just come and go as they please. First, Michael R. Taylor was an assistant to the FDA commissioner. Then he left to work for a law firm in the 1980's to help gain FDA approval of Monsanto's artificial growth hormone (rGBH), which is directly linked to cancer. Then he became deputy commissioner of the FDA in 1991, and was later re-appointed to the FDA in 2009 by Obama. He is the food villain who tried his best to keep this "malignant milk of the turn of the century" from being labeled.

Michael Taylor is the epitome of everything Monsanto represents. Taylor is like a vehicle for Monsanto's patenting of seeds and global domination of farming. He implements the government's "favorable" agricultural biotech policies because it's much more of a financially sure shot to use RoundUp in food than to farm organically and ethically. If the investments aren't paying enough at the corporation, Execs just switch over to Federal Regulations and write some new Legislation based on "tainted research", which allows them to pile more toxins on the American public and bankroll off it when they flip back to the corporate side.

The 4-headed Administration of thieves
This marks the pinnacle so far of a long ascent of evil profiteering and corporate executives making it to the top. It's like one big 4-headed company of thieves: The FDA, EPA, Supreme Court, and Monsanto's Board of Executives, and these organization hoppers include Clarence Thomas, Michael R. Taylor, Ann Veneman, and Linda Fisher, who conveniently bounce back and forth between positions at Monsanto and the EPA.

Here are just a few examples in case you didn't know: Prior to being the Supreme Court Judge who put G.W. Bush in office, Clarence Thomas was Monsanto's lawyer. The U.S. Secretary of Agriculture, Anne Veneman, was on the Board of Directors of Monsanto's Calgene Corporation. The U.S. Secretary of Health, Tommy Thompson, received $50,000 in donations from Monsanto during his winning campaign for Wisconsin's governor. The two congressmen receiving the most donations from Monsanto during the last election were Larry Combest, Chairman of the House Agricultural Committee, and Attorney General John Ashcroft. The prior Secretary of Defense, Donald Rumsfeld, was on the Board of Directors of Monsanto's Searle Pharmaceuticals.

Monsanto has the money to win in court and/or settle with anyone who opposes them. Monsanto has been sued and has settled multiple times for damaging the health of its employees and residents near its Superfund sites through pollution and poisoning. A report released in June 2011 linked glyphosate (RoundUp) to birth defects in frog and chicken embryos at dilutions much lower than those used in typical agricultural spraying (including home gardens). (http://www.organicconsumers.org/articles/article_22625.cfm)

Silent Anti-Nutritional Terrorism
FDA scientists once contended that genetic modification of the food supply is the "single most radical and potentially dangerous threat to public health." In addition to producing GMO foods, Monsanto pushes dozens of other toxic products such as aspartame, bovine growth hormone, Agent Orange, Dioxin, DDT, and Roundup - all of which cause birth defects and deformities.

Constitutional checks and balances are gone for the most part in the United States, especially when it comes to writing ethical policies regarding the environment, food, medicine and drinking water. The FDA and Corporations should not bleed over into one another, and the whole concept of lobbying is just a glorified form of "legal bribery."

Monsanto conveniently tramples on antitrust violations, which the Justice Department has supposedly been investigating for years. The Supreme Court of France found Monsanto guilty of falsely advertising Roundup as "biodegradable" and "environmentally friendly." The New York State Attorney General sued Monsanto and won in 1997 for claiming RoundUp was, "safer than table salt and "practically non-toxic" to mammals, birds, and fish. More than enough scientific research reveals glyphosate, the active ingredient in RoundUp, is "acutely toxic to fish and birds and can kill beneficial insects and soil organisms that maintain ecological balance."

On two other occasions, the EPA has caught scientists deliberately falsifying test results at research laboratories hired by Monsanto to study glyphosate.

    • Food Terrorism and food Slavery. Prince Charles has vocaly denounced
      this GMO nightmarish practice which has precipitated mass farmer suicides
      in India. A GMO seed, and GMO food is as much a terror weapon as the
      V1s, and V2s that Hitler launched against London. People are simply
      conned into believing otherwise because they're much more subtle, and
      take a lot longer to wreck their destruction. Still, if you're smart, you
      won't want anyone monkeying around with your organic food supply.
      They see all of us as herds of cows and sheep. Their scheme is to
      sterilze humans to control the population growth which they know is
      unsustainable. But it's also to dominate the food supply & the money
      derived from it so that they can dictate to humans directly by bypassing
      their Government altogether. One of the first things Nobama did was
      to appoint a former Monsanto exec as Secretary of Dept of Agriculture.
      You know, when the movie Rollerball came out in 1975, it was so avant
      guarde dystopian that few knew what to make of it then. But after that
      prediction of the future started more and more to materialize, they've
      since made a more modern remake of Rollerball. This is what happens
      when people forget the USA is a nation which started as farmers who
      built it up, and not to have Corporations waltz in and tear it all down.
      I signed the petition. I urge you to also if you care about society's children.

    • Changes need to be made for sure, however, let's be sure that the proposed "fix" doesn't turn toxic in attempting to "cure" the problem. . . that being said, I do in fact agree that corporate interests should have no place in government. . . at all!

    • Shrewd planning by Monsanto. While Monsanto's GMO's may be exempt from FDA and any all safety testing today, what about tomorrow and further into the future?

      As more independent studies come out showing adverse health effects and as Monsanto's genetic engineering experiments on human food supplies continuously get more and more ambitious and reckless, they run a risk of public awareness and public outcry demanding FDA investigate and regulate GMO's.

      By planting one of their own at top of the FDA, it accomplishes two things:

      1.) it prevents the FDA from coming out with any future rules that may negatively impact Monsanto and their "Product".

      2.)Their plant will also give Monsanto the bully pulpit, by having the FDA elevate propaganda "studies" showing that GMO's are not only safe for human consumption but more nutritional than organic food.

      Monsanto will get their man in top of the FDA. They're owned by Bill Gates. If you want to know what role Bill Gates plays in the Global scheme of things look back to around the 1900's. You'll quickly see that Bill Gates is the 21st century's John D. Rockefeller. He was selected to advance the agenda in the U.S. (and consequentially the world) because of the same character traits that J.D.R. had.

      Ruthlessness, a wayward conscience that allows him to disregard ethical/legal considerations to do whatever it takes, and the uncanny ability to concentrate and monopolize POWER.

    • Dagum:

      I once thought having an ambition such as obtaining a permit to construct a
      greenhouse would be a practical retirement hobby that would be enjoyable
      and thrifty. But more and more I see how the evil elements of this world seek
      to plunge the citizens of the USA into their horror story they envision for our
      future. And now I see that being energy independent, and food self sustaining
      is an imperative that's anything but an option. The Gurney's and Fields seed
      nursery catalogs I got in the latter 1980s and into the early 1990s are quite
      precious to me now that all Americans are coping with the Dystopian nightmare
      too wild even for Hitler's Bankster allies greedy dreams for world domination.
