(7,604 posts)and the President loves evil.
Or maybe because very few people with any executive experience have not worked for some evil corporation.
Now I know many people are fans of organic methods, Many feel that GMO foods will kill us all, but without the plant breeding of the last century, the insecticides and fertilizers, the earth would not be able to support it's present population. The GMO crops do increase yields, or at least the farmers believe that they are worth the extra cost.
Some people hate Monsanto because they continue to make money from their plant patents and do not allow farmers to grow their own seed with the GMO inheritance.
But even if you hate Monsanto and dislike Pres. Obama, many of these people have at most a peripheral link to Monsanto.
I'll give him the benefit of the doubt until there is some substance to an article that claims guilt by association twice removed.
