Is Monsanto a Threat?

[tooAlive]

They control the seeds to the food and when someone controls the food they are uber powerful. Not only that but because Monsanto has given a lot of coin to Congress and the Senate, even becoming part of the government themselves now they are more than Uber powerful...Uberiest? IDK...But now since they've managed to get the Monsanto Protection act slipped into another bill...ANONOMOUSLY!?

Now they don't have to worry about the after effects of the GMO's. Mo' Money Mo' Money

Facts: Monsanto controls about 80-90% of the Soybean market, Monsanto controls about 70-80% of the sugar beet market

Monsanto sued an independent farmer, Percy Schmeiser, for patent infringement for growing GMO genetically modified Roundup resistant canola in 1998. Percy Schmeiser is a Canadian farmer whose canola fields were contaminated with Monsanto's Round-Up Ready Canola by pollen from a nearby GMO farm. Monsanto successfully argued in a lawsuit that Schmeiser violated their patent rights, and forced Schmeiser to pay hundreds of thousands of dollars in damages.

etc etc etc. If you have any additional, interesting or otherwise facts on the company please post.

What do you think about it?

I believe this Monsanto issue is the crowning element in the rise of the corporatocracy, which is a giant step toward socialism.. The only way to counter what is happening to our nation and its government is a radical political revolution -- but a significant percentage of the American people are either too brainwashed, or too stupid, or both, to recognize the need and to participate.

I don't like a lot of the things I've heard about Monsanto. I think some of the GMO hysteria is bullshit, some may be legit though.

The problem isn't the corporation though.

If the federal government didn't have that power in the first place, they wouldn't be able to enable Monsanto to get away with the things they're doing. Local and state governments could regulate them. The feds prevent the states from doing anything about it.

You are an idiot. States can't regulate Monsanto in Canada.

I have one I have been mulling over, Caption. I've been sifting through all the blogs and discussions - coment sections - from people who lived in the vicinity of the Texas Fertilizer Plant that exploded. In my spare time, instead of posting here. I think I've found something. But truly not what I was expecting. I'm still shocked over the implications here....

There seems to be a pattern. The people who survived the Texas explosion say they feel very isolated since the explosion because the news ignored them and a majority of the people there do not believe it was an accident. They believe it was intentional sabotage but are in fear of Monsanto Cartel.

They told the authorities their suspicions but the authorities said, It is an accident. Investigation OVER. Case closed.

Monsanto's official response was your fertilizer plant didn't have standing for a court case against us. That is not true. When I found out the owner of this Fertilizer Plant was suing Monsanto - it was a big lawsuit - the battle was quite heated as Monsanto didn't like the publicity it was giving them. ( there are alledgedly some rumors Monsanto thugs were making death threats against the plant owner to shut his mouth and back off and he refused ) * threats were allegedly made against the 1st owner of fertilizer plant who brought orginal lawsuit against them.

It was in the middle of that battle with Monsanto - that the Fertilizer plant exploded wiping out a small town - few survived. ( they were still trying to get justice according to some even though it sounds like the judges were in Monsantos pocket) One woman said there are far more dead than they reported officially. They feel there has been a blackout on the news concerning the Texas explosion and the Boston Bombers were the focus of the nation - still are in their opinion.

Okay, so let me go get the link on Monstanto being sued by Fertilizer plant - then Fertilizer Plant blows up. God forbid I get accused of getting this information from Alex Jones. Not one word of it came from a conspiracy site..

Before the Blast, West Fertilizer?s Monsanto Lawsuit - Corporate Intelligence - WSJ

Here you go. Read this one.

I'm researching this story and again it is about 50 /50 in accuracy. That is how Monsanto gets away with it - they have direct contacts to the news media to have that story reported precisely as they would have it. They love to water down the truth while propping it up with a few facts.

So while it looks on the surface like an investigation questioning Monsanto - the reality is it's all pure theatre. It's a good ole' boys club so to speak. The people will never get justice or an honest answer about whether that plant was purposely sabatoged. imo. - Jeri

I'm sorry, you'll have to get back to me with that Revolution...celebrities are eating bugs on television right now.

Yes?

 

[Book of Jeremiah]

Is it possible that cartels such as Monsanto have thugs to do their dirty work for them if someone gets in their way?

I think anything is possible.

Something about the way the firemen died in that explosion tells me this wasn't an accident. Firemen are trained. They know what they are doing. Surely there were people on site to warn them of any dangers. It really doesn't make sense to me how that explosion could have "just happened".

didn't know about the lawsuit...interesting

I have heard of Monsanto heavies pressuring farmers. Its' pretty well known

 

[MikeK]

[...]

One cannot be held liable for copyright when the propriety technology in question is spread by natural selection.

If anything, Monstanto should have been sued for the propagation of their altered crop without the consent of the farmers in neighboring farms.

You're absolutely right. But the problem is our elected legislators apparently have been bribed by Monsanto to bring the full force of federal law to bear in Monsanto's favor and against the People.

Unfortunately the People are mainly to blame for their passive response to such an outrage. The solution to this problem, and many other imposing problems, is to demand to know the names of every member of Congress who voted to empower Monsanto and VOTE THEM OUT! By voting in favor of Monsanto they in fact voted against the public interest and have thereby demonstrated they are receptive to bribery and cannot be trusted.

The question for me is would a company with that much power, privledge and connections inside Washington have the audacity to blow up a fertilizer plant knowing they could get away with it?

That is what I am wondering about. Among other things.
