Yeah but most of them don't have the potential of
contaminating and screwing up every food crop on
earth. Of causing a planet wide decimation of
heritage crops. They're so sure they know and
they've made claims in arrogance, and with no
knowledge of long term effects. And they've tried
to suppress any study that shows ill health
effects from their tampering.
Take round up ready GMO crops. The plants have
actually become more resistant , and the
resistance has spread to other weeds. They've
opened up Pandora's box and they're not going to
be able to contain it. It is the height of
arrogance to introduce genetic material that they
KNEW would spread and contaminate other plants.
There is no way to control the spread of it. And
maybe that's what they want, for their genes to
end up in everything so they can claim they own
it. And then charge everyone money for having
their genes in everything from garden roses to
backyard gardens.
They don't care if they should do what they're
doing, they did it because they could. The guys at
the top aren't scientists either, they're not
interested in how or why it works or doesn't.
They're CEOs that are only interested in profiting
from the science, not what ill effects might
result from their tampering. This is the same
company that says BPA is safe.
And I suppose the "broken eggs" idea is a real
comfort to all those Indian farmers who trusted
Moronsanto about GMO cotton and committed suicide
because they went broke because of crop failures
and having to buy seed every growing season,
farmers in poorer countries can't AFFORD to buy
seed every growing season and the specific
expensive chemicals required for use on them. The
crop yields were miserable, much much less than
Moronsanto promised in their glowing sales pitches.
Moronsanto has proven to be a liar in the past,
and I don't trust anything that comes from them.
They poison people and the environment with their
chemicals and they could care less as long as they
rake in the bucks. If their lips are moving
they're lying.
I'm glad that a seed bank was created to preserve
heritage seeds. Because I think at some point
we're going to need it. It's the height of
stupidity to use and endanger the world's food
supply to test new unproven technology.
I liken it to them creating a new virus and then
indiscriminately spreading it in the population at
large. It's dangerous and reckless to proceed in
that manner.
I am scientifically minded and have taken many
science courses over the years, with the exception
of chemistry. And you cannot convince me, no
matter what you say or how you justify it, that
they did not know that their crops would
contaminate every field around them for hundreds
of miles. Anyone who knows anything about plants
and genes knows that pollen is spread far and wide
by birds, insects, and even the wind. Pollens can
be spread far and wide in the wind. We gett grit
and dust in the US from Africa for heaven's sake.
So it's not too far a stretch to realize that
pollens can be carried for great distances. Birds
fly great distances, and migrate. And bees can
travel a bery long distance. Butterflies, and
other insects flit from one filed to another with
no concern about fences.They KNEW it would happen,
and they deliberately contaminated other people's
fields.
There is a lot of skulduggery involved in the GMO
seeds, and the USDA even owns patents as well from
what I understand. So it's about money plain and
simple.
There needs to be a law enacted that anyone who
takes a job at the FDA or the USDA cannot be hired
if they worked for a company that creates a
conflict of interest, or might benefit from the
person taking a government position.

If we let our fears prevent us from ever exploring the unknown, then we

It is reasonable to stop moving in a wrong direction.
It is not reasonbale to stop moving altogether.

This is the crux of the problem, the arrogance of these scientists.
Yes, they THINK they know what the modification will do, but from what
I've been reading, they're wrong. AS USUAL.
