Greed Monsanto Obama

April 2nd, 2013


When you think of America’s Heartland, you probably envision vast fields of growing corn and soybeans.  Sustainable crops to feed America or poisonous foods to supply Big Ag and our own Government with money?  Did you know that 90% of those crops are grown with genetically modified seeds?  Yes!  Corn and soybeans are grown with insecticides bred into them!  BT toxin and Round Up are genetically bred into seeds used to feed livestock as well as ourselves.  

BT Toxin: a dangerous insecticide that once ingested by insects attaches to its gut and destroys it from the inside.

RoundUp: this is the same stuff you use to kill weeds.  The Label reads: “Hazardous to humans and domestic animals”.

When crops are sprayed with RoundUp, workers wear masks and suits so as not to ingest or inhale this poison.  However it is okay, by US law to be genetically bred into your food.

So who is responsible for this?

By now I’m sure you’ve heard of the Monsanto Corporation.  The Monsanto Corporation has been producing seeds for crops since 1946 and is now the largest producer of genetically modified seeds in the world.
Recently signed into US law by President Obama and written by the Monsanto Corporation itself was H.R. 933 also known as the Monsanto Protection Act.  In short, it requires the USDA to approve the harvest and sale of crops from genetically modified seed even if a court has ruled against the crop as being dangerous to public safety or the environment.

This puts Monsanto above the law!


Promises, Promises 

So who else is responsible?
 
In 2007 a promise was made, “If elected president…..I will let folks know if their food is genetically modified because Americans should know what they are buying.”  See this video from fooddemocracynow.com: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zqaaB6NE1TI
To this date, ignoring the people’s vote, no such legislation has been passed to label foods that contain genetically modified ingredients. 

Why?  It’s probably because Monsanto lobbied $12 million to congress just last year.  Your government is experimenting with your health for money.  If Monsanto needs a bill passed to protect them from litigation, then they must know what they are doing is illegal.
Stand up for your rights and health!  Buy Non-GMO seeds and grow your own!
