Do you feel safer consuming Monsanto GMO food from mega-farms or the local farmer's roadside 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.

The guy on the roadside could be selling things covered with pesticides from third world hell holes.

Many people foolishly assume the guy at the side of the road is selling locally gown organic food. Not always sol

Are you talking about the senate bill S510 ? Thankfully that didn't pass because of something else in the bill. But I don't feel good that a bill like this would or could still be voted on and passed who is coming up with these type of bills?

Honestly?

Monstanto would be empirically safer.

Fun fact: more cases of food poisoning are from organic food than there should be given their proportion of the market.

Why? Two theories.

Using only manure as fertilizer increases the risk of bacterial contamination.

People seem to think they don't need to wash organic food.

I'd wager both.

I don't know where you got this from but it has absolutely no basis in reality. Either you mis-read something or you got this from some ridiculous Right Wing website that took a story completely out of context.

So where do you think the government is trying to ban your right to grow your own food?

No I wouldn't feel safer at all, I'd just be pissed off!
