(62,325 posts)Europe is still working on it, as countries apparently needed permission, why only the gods know, from the EU to ban GMOs. Many other countries in other parts of the world have been banning the at a faster rate over the past few years.
Studies done by Monsanto paid scientists, are irrelevant. And those comprise 50% of all studies done.
Studies from neutral scientists have contradicted all those 'GMOs are great' studies, which is WHY the banning of GMOs has been speeding up.
I believe Obama has been undermined now by Corporate Interests on this and on other issues, such as the ban on Offshore Drilling, which he also promised to keep in place and then did an about turn.
It's at a point where people are beginning to wonder if the Presidency has been completely coopted because no one could have been so clear on issues like this and on the environment, and on 'forever war' amongst other things, or on Commissions, which he opposed during the campaign, and then do a complete reversal of his clearly stated positions, unless there is something we don't know. Either that, he was the best actor ever to run for the WH. I supported him BECAUSE of issues like this.
