Controlling Our Food

"The French documentary, called “The world according to Monsanto” and directed by independent filmmaker Marie-Monique Robin, paints a grim picture of a company with a long track record of environmental crimes and health scandals."

This is a long documentary, but well worth the time spent watching it. In general, genetically modified crops are harmful to the environment as it is, but imposing them along with their accompanying poison "Roundup" on the whole world can have catastrophic and even cataclysmic consequences. These people (giant corporations have the same status as individual people without the same responsibilities as people have, thus cannot be prosecuted nor punished when they break the law or commit mass slaughters and destructions) must at all costs be stopped.
