142 comments Genetic Engineering: the World’s Greatest Scam? (VIDEO)

Will the genetic engineering of food help to expand production and reduce world hunger? That is the argument of the multinational corporations that are promoting it for profit.

This short video from Greenpeace gives the other side of the story. Genetics has done a lot to improve plant yields, but are big corporations taking risks with our food supply that could be dangerous?   It’s pretty harsh.  Do you agree with it?  Let us know.

We are in dangerous territory here, what does Monsanto care, they are lining their pockets. Why should they care, they get away with murder just like the tobacco companies did for years.

Genetically modified organisms may prove to be poisonous for people and animals. We know they are packed with herbicides and pesticides. Their deadly action is quick on small organisms. What will happen when they accumulate in large organisms. Nobody knows. Great just great.

Americans have the right to bear arms and to use them to fix a corrupt government maybe they can be a little bit brave and meet me halfway by using those arms to run Monsanto out of business, this is one time i will advocate the noose as its the only deterrent to the rest of the military /industrial alliance that will prove effective. Sadly this is just my dream as America has long since sold its soul for the dollar. Why its because its Americans who are working for Monsanto and developing the technology not the Martians as some would have us believe.
