They were playing "The Fray" at work today. And that american idol chick. I almost died of shock.

Take the quiz:

The issue in Freedom of Expression that I found to upset me the greatest is the fight over self terminating seeds. Coming from a small farming community, I realize the sacrifice it is to be a farmer in the first place--to feed the world's population. I have trouble understanding why we make it so difficult for farmers to do their jobs. We don't constantly make it harder for other professions of such importance. It seems like in United States the poor people are those that have to deal with the baggage that comes with being a "free" citizen.

The patenting Delta and Pine Land is subjecting on farmers is putting the world, not the nation, the world, at a greater risk for starvation. First of all, because farmers can only buy the self terminating seeds due to the United States's wonderful economic tactics, it takes just one disease to wipe out the majority of crops. In a nutshell, the United States is begging for a widespread faminine. Secondly, since it costs so much to buy these seeds and farmers have to constantly replant rather than letting nature repollunate itself, the quantity of production is harder to keep up. Less food equals more hungry people.

But all this is completely justified, because the patent is legal and therefore absolutely dandy according to the United States.
