lol buthurt over a perceived slight to try and cover up your liesfeel free to misquote me if it makes it seem as if you are correct. Almost all corn is gmo anymore. This is a fact.
But feel free to bury your head in the sand.
That study is all about the Bt TOXIN (PESTICIDE) and goes into how less insect damage leaves fewer vectors for fungal damage to occur
You are correct. So in essence it is preventing rot by deterring pest/pathogens.
If you don't get it. I'll spell it out for you.
Sam if the world was only about you..... We are not trying to make the world healthy, they have to not starve first. We cannot keep them from starving without losing 90% of the grains in the corrupt process.
of course you think the articles were "neutral", they are written to sound like dispassionate discussion of the facts, when in fact they are carefully designed to give the implication that the crops in question were simply "released into the wild" rather than the truth, which is the "release" is a legal removal of injunction, not a terrifying abrogation of regulatory responsibility.
that myth has already been dispelled on previous pages of this very thread.The problem is we do not have a choice. Corn for instance is such a high input crop to grow if the farmers did not plant gm corn they would loose money. Therefore they have no choice.
Furthermore, it is becoming increasingly difficult to purchase non gm corn in the first place and if you have a field of non gm corn and it gets pollinated by say your neighbors gm corn the seed companies can and have came in and sued farmers successfully for patent infringement. Even though the defendants have done no wrong.
This whole scenario is really frightening. When you have a handful of companies controlling virtually the entire worlds food supply we as average citizens are in trouble.
I believe this documentary covers this subject very well. It has been awhile since I watched it though so it may have been another.
financial incentive encourages companies to inform growers that a crop is GMO, since hybrids cant be patented, and gmo's can.
True.. Corruption has been with us since we crawled out the caves-- I guess we can't change that part about us (well not at this current junction), human nature is a bitch~
Yeah, profit making food companies release foods that kill their consumers...True.. Corruption has been with us since we crawled out the caves-- I guess we can't change that part about us (well not at this current junction), human nature is a bitch~
I get the whole GMO crops to increase yield hence more food (even "if" it is not completely 100% healthy) to feed the ever increasing world populace --but I really doubt that is why corporations like Monsanto is in the business~
Simply put, wealth and power, their not creating GMO crops to feed the starving-- come on, lets get real, we can actually accomplish that without GMOs~
I'll put myself in their shoes-- I drive to work in a lambo, I make millions a day, my life revolves around luxury... why the fuck would I give two shits above anyone else other than me? My life is good, your life blows, deal with it~ ..starving people around the world can do me a big favor, and just die off --wasting space & resources, isn't that the law of the jungle-- survival of the fittest?
I did. You do not know what you are talking about.
You really do not know what you are talking about.
It was stupid and irrelevant.Oh my! REALLY? my comparison had nothing to do with gmo's there. It was only meant to demonstrate how previously accepted practices were later found to be quite harmful.
Apparently in your narrow minded focus of defending gmo's you over looked that.
What I find here is terrible opinions about GMO crops and farming not backed up with anything.
You're totally clueless that I'm laughing my ass off here
No. Don't try to back door a straw dog " ...even if it is not healthy"....oh come on. It is 100% healthy and no evidence to the contrary.True.. Corruption has been with us since we crawled out the caves-- I guess we can't change that part about us (well not at this current junction), human nature is a bitch~

Survival of the fittest is all we have ever had.
And you sir, seem to present a content free mind only useful for supplying punk-ass scorn.You're totally clueless that I'm laughing my ass off here
Another dude who is losing credibility with every post
U mad bro? Cause you sure act like it lmao
lets at least agree to disagree.. maybe 99% --gotta give me that 1%, come on!!!No. Don't try to back door a straw dog " ...even if it is not healthy"....oh come on. It is 100% healthy and no evidence to the contrary.
No. Don't try to back door a straw dog. There is no evidence we can maintain our position against the world's insects and produce the required yield. All the evidence says that we cannot.
No. Don't try to back door a straw dog. (very dry hole)
And if you wanted to be a dirty socialist, you could pass a law insisting metal processing factories and the like "donate" their useful waste for the nutes.
