If this can happen to pigs that eat GM corn, imagine what it is doing to humans, even now?

replacing them with fishmeal and non-GM soybean instead


So he changed two variables that we can see. And most likely there were other ones.

My observation is that as we have increased yields of crops, oil and protein content have been decreased. It may be that he was not preparing a good feed.

Too much going on here to point at GM.

And you continue to prove for us your support of those wishing to obtain control of the food supply, your support for a “product” that has not been proven safe, and your ongoing, unrelenting support for an industry steeped in deception & crony capitalism

Do you even support the labeling of GMO products? If not, why not? Are you anti-free market??

I am not the anti-capitalist. Those who pledge their support to the GMO industry, specifically Monsanto, are the anti-capitalists.

“There is a wonderful conservative solution for those who are hysterical about Monsanto, though. If they don’t like their products, then they can not buy them.”

If only it were that simple. Monsanto’s junk products are overtaking the market due to their legislative & judicial protection. And their heavy-handedness has also prevented required labeling of products that contain GMOs. Ever ask yourself why a company would try so hard & spend so much money to stifle competition & the free market??

Hm...

I’m not buying into it. Monsanto lobbies for favorable legislation just like millions of other business. They are not a monopoly, and food is not poison.

“Monsanto’s junk products are overtaking the market due to their legislative & judicial protection.”

No, they have overtaken the market because they deliver a superior product that consumers demand over their competition.

“And their heavy-handedness has also prevented required labeling of products that contain GMOs.”

Prevented required labeling? If the laws don’t get passed, then the labeling is not required. If you want the labeling, then write your representatives, instead of bashing Monsanto.

“Ever ask yourself why a company would try so hard & spend so much money to stifle competition & the free market??”

Every company tries to stifle competition and dominate the market. That’s how business works.

“The methodology here is to get Monsanto “playing ball” with the gov’t/left by giving them special protections in exchange for more leftist/gov’t control.”

If that is the plan, then why is the left demonizing them instead of giving them special protections? I guess some cogs in the great conspiracy did not get the memo.

The sheeperals have a different motivation - to feel good about themselves.

Monsanto is getting special protections from the government - several cases lately.

Even while the sheeperals protest, their elected pols act for Monsanto, and blame republicans.

So how exactly is this conspiracy supposed to work? The left is pushing to give Monsanto special protections, but the left is also demonizing and trying to ban Monsanto products? I’m still struggling to understand how in the world that is supposed to make sense.

You're lying and, yet again, proving to anyone who cares that you are horrendously misinformed about this company, and their products, as is humanly possible.

Monsanto is successful because people willingly purchase their products and services. Unless you're trying to claim that you are smarter (you're not) than all the millions upon millions of people who freely buy their products, because they create value, then you're just another anti-capitalist windbag who knows nothing about how free markets work.

You don’t understand because you conflate the sheeperals with the leftists in power.
They are not one group. They have different primary motivations.

Sheeperals seek to feel good about themselves as good people - nothing else.
Leftist control freaks seek to control their fellow human.

Without modern crop genetics last year; the 100 degree heat in the Midwest would have cooked the corn and soybean crops.

How many millions of deaths would be acceptable so the anti science people would be happy?

Same junk science as global warming.

Some corporations lefties bash are deserved of the bashing.

Corps who use the their influence w Gov’t to manipulate markets are not free-marketeers.

It's a common claim that the facts never seem to support. The alleged case against Monsanto is based on emotion, not facts.

If they do happen to receive any benefits from government that you don't approve of, that's the fault of government, isn't it? Given that a large number of corporations receive the same kinds of benefits from exercising their Constitutional right to petition the government, don't you think it's unfair to selectively target Monsanto.....like the left?

How exactly is Monsanto manipulating these markets? This is a common claim that I've yet to see proven.
