THE REASON I BLOG FOR PEACE ~ #6 ~ Monsanto verus World Justice
ENGINEERED ELEMENTS ARE YOUR FOOD TODAY ~ and it is not new and improved as corporate food producers want us to believe.
Do you remember when ketchup (also known as catsup) couldn't be called ketchup legally because the healthier types of ketchup, had different elements/ingredients than the brand Heinz ketchup was made of? So the healthier ketchup, had to be called imitation ketchup. If not, you probably are too young to remember this. Or it just didn't get under your radar of information gathering.

One reason I blog for Peace
is to spotlight how the "food" growing methods have changed for the worse and therefore what we eat is killing us. One way to decrease the need for health care dollars would be for our politicians and the US Supreme Court to protect us from the sicknesses and deaths brought to us by Corporations who sell our food contaminated and far from wholesome and healthy.
If you haven't seen the documentary movie, Food Inc, check it out (in the USA) for free at your public library, go to youtube where much of it is posted, rent it, buy it. Please, for your own information, yours and your loved ones' sake, do see it.

Corporations who control the farmers, our environment, how our food is prepared and grown have the politicians and some members of the US Supreme Court on speed dial. Money can buy your government and has. Many of our elected politicians are whores for the Corporate farming businesses. Not just in the USA, but all over the world. Small farmers who want to remain small farms have been denied this freedom. They have been pushed out based on laws that are pro corporate farming, they have been intimidated with lawyers and lawsuits, they have drained farmers dry with legal costs to try to save their rights to farm their own farms their own way. Farmers are not even allowed to save their own seeds. They have spent millions, if not billions on lobbying your elected representative government.
If you aren't aware of this and it has happened while you are busy with your life, I suggest you do some google searching, reading, educate yourself. Because this way of operating our food supply is killing us. And killing our environment. And those who gain monetarily from this, don't care that the people they get rich on are getting sick from the food and dying. Some day, they may very likely have less people to feed as they kill us off. Then what will they do? Who will they lobby to get rich? And what will they lobby about?

Monsanto owns the world...
Monsanto’s Harvest of Fear
Monsanto already dominates America’s food chain with its genetically modified seeds. Now it has targeted milk production. Just as frightening as the corporation’s tactics–ruthless legal battles against small farmers–is its decades-long history of toxic contamination.
by Donald L. Barlett and James B. Steele
