6. It has been known for years that GMO crops do NOT
Feed the world or end suffering.
Instead, they force the world's poorest farmers, who struggle from season to season, often in very arid parts of the world, to go into debt to buy these "wonder seeds." Only after they allow the local Monsanto agent to take away their prior year's seeds, and plant the new seeds and then watch as sickly struggling plants come up, only then do they realize they have been snookered. Tens of thousands of Indian farmers have committed suicide, as they are so in debt, and were not allowed to save their seeds, so they have no way out except to end their suffering. And Don Huber, who was Monsanto's "go to" researcher for decades has a busy retirement being an activist. He and his friends are probing into setting up studies and discovering that when soil is sprayed with Roundup, the nutritional aspect of the soil is depleted and then fusarium and vomitoxin moves in on whatever crops have been planted in the Monsanto-sprayed field. This is why so many Americans now cannot get through a single day without ingesting Zantac or Prilosec - the wheat Americans eat is filled with the fungal diseases and mold, and so our stomachs cannot handle the mess. Across the globe, most nations REFUSE OUTRIGHT to have our wheat enter their borders. |
