Michael Taylor: Monsanto's Man?

[sabrina 1]

47. Thanks for what?

When Taylor returned to government as Deputy Commissioner for Policy for the FDA from 1991 to 1994, the agency approved the use of Monsanto's GM growth hormone for dairy cows (now found in most U.S. milk) without labeling. His role in these decisions led to a federal investigation, though eventually he was exonerated of all conflict-of-interest charges.

So we have a Monsanto CEO in charge of the FDA, who was in charge of the FDA when they ended up under federal investigation for what they did to the food supply??

Since when did Democrats start loving Monsanto? Are you at all familiar with this Corporation? I don't think I have ever met a Democrat who supported this Corporation until the past few weeks. I keep asking people who do, to explain it, to present something that this Corporation is doing that warrants any defense at all, so far I have not received a single answer.

Republicans have always supported evil Corps like Monsanto. When I asked THEM why, they claimed that 'since people in Africa are so inferior, unable to feed themselves, even if genetically modified food does cause cancer, 'it's better than starving'. The level of ignorance and bigotry in this kind of response, should be obvious. But now, I am seeing whispers of this defense coming from the 'left' in their efforts to try to defend the appointments of Monsanto CEOs to a democratic administration.
