"The Earth is flat, pigs were invented by Monsanto, and GMOs are safe."

From the Monsanto foods website:
"We're excited about the potential for genetically modified food to contribute to a better environment and a sustainable, plentiful, and healthy food supply."
Makers of agent orange, aspartame, rBGH (recombinant bovine growth hormone), moth tomatoes, salmon potatoes, and plenty of other incredibly disgusting and hazardous products that you have probably consumed your entire life.

Not to mention global agricultural monopolizers constantly striving and most often succeeding in patenting every vegetable and animal on the planet.

"If you're not worried, you should be: central control of food supply has been a standard ingredient for social and political control throughout history. By creating a monopoly position, Monsanto can force dangerous experiments like the release of GMOs into the environment on an unwilling public. They can ensure that GMOs will be sold and consumed wherever they say they will.

By claiming global monopoly patent rights throughout the entire food chain, Monsanto seeks to make farmers and food producers, and ultimately consumers, entirely dependent and reliant on one single corporate entity for a basic human need."
