Food Democracy Now
On January 31, family farmers will take part in the
first phase of a court case filed to protect farmers from genetic
trespass by Monsanto’s GMO seed, which contaminates organic and non-GMO
farmer’s crops and opens them up to abusive lawsuits. In the past two
decades, Monsanto’s seed monopoly has grown so powerful that they
control the genetics of nearly 90% of five major commodity crops
including corn, soybeans, cotton, canola and sugar beets.
In many cases farmers are forced to stop growing certain
crops to avoid genetic contamination and potential lawsuits. Between
1997 and 2010, Monsanto admits to filing 144 lawsuits against America’s
family farmers, while settling another 700 out of court for undisclosed
amounts. Due to these aggressive lawsuits, Monsanto has created an
atmosphere of fear in rural America and driven dozens of farmers into
bankruptcy. Please join us in standing up for family farmers everywhere against Monsanto's abusive seed monopoly.

"Food Safety Modernization Act of 2010, may be the most dangerous bill in the history of the US..."
"..."If accepted [S 510] would preclude the public's right to grow, own, trade, transport, share, feed and eat each and every food that nature makes. It will become the most offensive authority against the cultivation, trade and consumption of food and agricultural products of one's choice. It will be unconstitutional and contrary to natural law or, if you like, the will of God." It is similar to what India faced with imposition of the salt tax during British rule, only S 510 extends control over all food in the US, violating the fundamental human right to food." ~ Dr. Shiv Chopra, Canada Health whistleblower.
Monsanto says it has no interest in the bill and would not benefit from it, but Monsanto's Michael Taylor who gave us rBGH and unregulated genetically modified (GM) organisms, appears to have designed it and is waiting as an appointed Food Czar to the FDA (a position unapproved by Congress) to administer the agency it would create without judicial review if it passes.
S 510 would give Monsanto unlimited power over all US seed, food supplements, food AND FARMING..."
