Monsanto hasn't solved the world's problems. Never has, and never will. Just introduced new ways to destroy health. Just because you can ingest it doesn't mean you should. Point to an African country that has nobody hungry in it, just because of engineered foods and unnatural pesticides and herbicides.

We've replaced high protein natural grains with stuff that rips our guts apart, much the way it was designed to do the same to insects. In the early 1900s the protein content for wheat was about 18%; now it's down around 6%.

The herbicide doesn't just disappear either. It kills vital microbes in the soil, and ends up hanging on to the stuff that we eat. What happens when the stuff that kills microbes ends up in the vital gut flora that we have? Poor gut health, and chronic illnesses. Scours kills more calves than anything, yet we introduce toxins to gradually put us into the dirt. Sure, we're pretty resilient, and maybe we're OK, we think. But why?

Canada did little or no testing of it's own, and just accepted it's use after it was approved in the U.S..

There is a reason that our grain isn't accepted in some parts of the world. The use of GMO grains has been likened to Pandora's box. Once you introduce it, it contaminates and takes over native species. There is no completely eradicating it either.

Monsanto thugs show up to collect payment from farmers who have never used it, because it's spread into their field. What straight and narrow business has to do that?

The board of directors shouldn't be subject to mere civil cases. They should be tried criminally with punishment up to and including death, if found guilty of knowingly poisoning millions. A few of these mega corporations have entirely too much national pull spanning a couple countries.
