There's a lot of Monsanto plants up here.


I'm glad my name isn't Roy Fuchs.

This is even more ridiculous than giving Obama the Nobel Peace Prize.

I suggest watching Food, Inc. to get an idea of what they're doing to the farming industry. Granted this is capitalism, but this monopolization is destroying the livelihoods of average farmers.

Also Monsanto's GMO crops have not thoroughly been tested--ignoring the potentially adverse effects of their production and consumption. Sure the crops may be Round-Up resistant, but some of their crops, i.e. potatoes, are in and of themselves are labeled as a herbicide--not merely resistant.

Fuck you Monsanto!
I doubt their potatoes produce herbicide though, that would never pass regulatory. Not sure it's even possible. Plus they'd sell less of their Round-Up.
