Do you feel safer consuming Monsanto GMO food from mega-farms or the local farmer's roadside stand?
The central government is working fast and furious to outlaw our right to grow and consume the food of our choice, to ensure our only source of food is Monsanto GMO's available from government-approved sources. For our "safety", local farm to consumer food is discouraged and many people rot in jail for attempting to consume the food of their choice.
Would you feel safer with your only choice for food being GMO's from mega-farms available only through centrally-approved corporate grocery stores, or would you like the option of consuming food from the local farmer's (soon illegal) vegetable stand?

Local farmers, always.
There is an accountability that they cannot avoid in the community. ONE rumor or one incident would ruin them. They strive to make sure that doesn't happen.
*forced to pull teet, plant, bail hay, shovel obama and harvest on the socialist family commune we called 'the farm'.
All I know is that we've witnessed something extremely odd at my sister's home. Some of us wouldn't believe her until we saw for ourselves: She'd leave empty (without rinsing) Progresso Soup cans in the kitchen next to garbage pail and in the morning the cans would be filled with dead roaches at the bottom. No insecticide or any fumigation was done, which is precisely why she had the roach infestation for the longest time.
I can only think there is an ingredient in those soups which make the roaches die as soon as they eat the leftovers.
"The central government is working fast and furious to outlaw our right to grow and consume the food of our choice," Nothing of the sort is happening. On the contrary, the USDA is pushing and promoting farmers markets.
Farmer-to-consumer food is not being discouraged, it's being promoted. Where are you getting your information??
Also what makes you think that adoption of GM technology is linked to farm size? I'm all for supporting my local farmers, but many of them are growing GM crops as well (and I think that's fine).
i extremely do not care, in spite of the undeniable fact that the tips must be accessible. there is little clinical debate about the typical and safe practices of GMO ingredients as ingredients. yet there is crucial debate about the conceivable lengthy time period consequences on the surroundings besides because the particularly gruesome way agribusiness 'protects' their psychological resources that they insist on liberating to the wind. the commonly used public must be taught the thanks to decide on. Be that because it ought to there is not any commercial nutrition crop that couldn't genetically changed. it really is merely that the way it change into finished for 2 hundred years change into selective breeding and flow breeding - merely as unnatural because the further effective gene splicing. And circuitously the international grew to 7 billion mainly properly fed human beings.
