Here's proof that the food dollars we spend wisely every day have a big impact on the future of GMOs. Biotech and their government partners in collusion are in the habit of turning a deaf ear to the demands of the people to label GMOs and restrain GMO trespass and contamination. But no one can ignore the dictates of the market. "'I'm not surprised at all that farmers are getting less for GM canola than non-GM canola. This is something that we predicted because we were looking at overseas, what consumers expect, and they expect to be able to access non-genetically modified canola.'" We have the power. Let's use it. Jim

"...Ripert said if people want to eat fresh foods and foods made with sustainable ingredients, they need to increase their food budgets - and prioritize spending on food over luxuries...According to the USDA, Americans spend less on food than any other country - just 9.4% of disposable income in 2010. Although food prices have been rising, this is down from 11.4% in 1990 and 13.2% in 1980." This 60 year federal policy of 'cheap food' at retail and back-end subsidies to Big Ag is a big part of the problem pushing family farmers off the land. Jim

"...the tobacco companies were 'motivated by a desire for unwarranted economic gain and profit,' with zero regard for the farmers and their infant children - many of which are now suffering from severe birth defects from Monsanto's products.".

"The agency in particular cited a study, financed by the 2,4-D manufacturers and conducted by Dow, in which the chemical was put into the feed of rats. The study did not show reproductive problems in the rats or problems in their offspring that might be expected if 2,4-D were disrupting hormone activity, the E.P.A. said." Jim

Sasha Orman connects the dots and offers insight into Monsanto's penchant to sue, a judge's misinterpretation of Monsanto's modus operandi and Monsanto's bullying of Vermont. Jim
