Monsanto's fortunes turn sour

" The bigger they are, the harder they fall, one and all " I think that
quote might be attributable to a real person named Marley. Monsanto's
motives are closer to the Marley named Jacob from Charles Dicken's book
" A Christmas Carol ". From the outrageous things I've heard alleged about
Monsanto's purpose in the NWO, (sterilizing the poor of the world so that they
can't reproduce to control the world's population overgrowth), if true, and I
wouldn't doubt it, Marley's partner in evil greed, Ebineezer Scrooge summed
up the NWO's Banksters' attitude: " Are there no debtor's prisons, no
poorhouses for the poor ? " " Then I suggest they simply die, and decrease
the surplus population " When I found out pinocio'bama helped place a
Monsanto exec as head of the Dept. of Agriculture, I almost pucked.
The Press knows him now for the NWO elitist he seeks to be. They won't
turn a blind eye to all Nobama'a duplicity next time around.

Yes, this is indeed an opportunity. I still have hope we can get them labelled and then one day they will be no more in our food. My only regret is that they have already been allowed to contaminate so much, and now, Arbor Gen wants to start planting GE trees in the South. That too cannot happen. The entire board of Monsanto along with their officers should be brought up on charges as well as all of the companies that conspired to deliberately deceive consumers with their fraudulent claims and environmental destruction. I can have hope for that too.

Yes, eating organic could actually cut down on health expenses and work towards actually lowering the cost of food in the longrun as it requires less imputs and works to preserve soil and our climate balance which increases yield. Pay a bit more for good food now, or pay for your triple bypass later. It's a no brainer as far as I am concerned. I can do without one less DVD in my house, or video game for the X Box, or some other extravagance I don't really need to make sure my family eats better food because I care about the effect that has on the future. It's called prioritizing. And it also does send a message to farmers that Monsanto's monoculture is really a dead end.

You're pretty poor, aren't you?

Get a better job.

yes, exactly. double cheeseburger = $1 ... local fruit, organic tea, baked chicken = $6 im not seeing the down side. it may cost more to eat healthy and to screw a huge corporation at the same time but its worth it.

So then why do anything, by that logic? Why eat at all?

If you don't want to buy organic, that's your decision. I won't make you. Mocking the choices other people make is childish. But the practices of Monsanto go far beyond mere organic or not, and that's why we're so concerned.

Maybe if you didn't fill your self up on GMO foods so much your doctor bills wont be so high in the long run. Your body does not break these foods down naturally which leads to health complications.

Like the kid said , you can pay the organic farmer or you can pay the hospital..... and HOPE they can actually help you .

And actually that cheap food is the deception. If it were valued based on the environmental damage done in getting it to the table it would be out of reach as far as being affordable. But corporations can buy off governments and use speculation in the markets to keep their brand of junk food cheap while food grown the right way is more expensive. People need to consider the residual costs of eating such foods in regards to the healthcare costs and the environmental sacrifice to get it to them in order to understand that one dollar hamburger is really a 20 dollar hamburger if it is priced based on indirect costs (rainforest/habitat degradation, price of cattle, animal feed, shipping, carbon footprint, water footprint, fossil fuels used, pesticides used, etc) It is the same with fossil fuels in comparison to say solar energy. Coal is not priced by considering indirect costs such as health risks and environmental degradation to land, water and air. If it were solar panels would be so inexpensive every one could have them. The mechanisms set in place by governments and market structures to deceive us are what need to be shattered as well before we can see true food and energy parity. Therefore, yes, buying food grown sustainably is not intrinsicly more expensive when you understand how it is grown and that you do have a better chance of eating something that is in the longrun healthier for you and the environment especially if it is grown locally. That then makes it worth the price you pay in the longterm.

I've posted about Raj Patel's book above that hits it right on the mark. And Monsanto is indeed part of this deception as well.

Well, they have a toxic replacement for Round Up in the works based on what I've read. That's why we need to keep the pressure on in relaying this information to as many people as we can.

If that doesn't work, they'll just keep suing farmers whose crime was being near a Monsanto farm.

Well, farmers then need to keep suing them.

Better pass the hat around...

It is an excellent media, despite its name.

I have yet to read an article on the Christian Science Monitor which pushes evil ways on anyone.

Haha well played.

Didn't know that. Add the link in here then if you wish. We can't get enough of this good news.

Me too, and we're not alone.

I let people know about Monsanto every time I can on FB. With stories like these from NYTimes and you.

That's great.

Their time has come. I have a lot of companies on my list... Monsanto is near the top! This is good news!

He is not. You need to get out of the nineties concerning Mr. Gore and actually read his books that indicate the contrary. And stop trying to turn my support away from him as if it would be some kind of victory or something. It is obvious and disingenuous.

Yeah that's a pretty wack statement. This company ruin's countless lives but Al Gore backing the company more than 10 years ago is the"big issue"?

And the point is that this company then courted both parties and while Clinton did allow them in, they were already well entrenched and pulling the wool over people's eyes with their deceptions and there were at least people in his administration who were against them as well. Do I approve of that? No, but, there is no evidence regarding Mr. Gore being a "backer" of Monsanto but plenty on many others in every other administration since the first Bush, particularly Bush Jr's regime who had more people appointed to positions from Monsanto and Searle including Rumsfeld than any other administration. John Ashcroft actually got more donations from Monsanto in 2000 than any other candidate as well. Therein lies the hypocrisy of the Al Gore hater's club on Current that never takes a holiday. But it also illustrates just how important it is for us to never relent on making our voices heard in telling DC that we will not accept the continued support of environmental terrorists that use deceit and lobbying money to influence policy over health... which is the topic of this post.

Absolutely. Keep up the good work! I'll do the same.

Yes, Hillary Clinton is big on them too. I posted about that when she first became SOS. Matter of fact she was just recently in Kenya with Tom Vilsack pushing them. This is what their foreign food aid bill is all about.
