  2.  @amie8889  : And with idiots like you blabbing unrestrained in YouTube comments, more people are "in the know." We really kid ourselves that government is "protecting us," when the BEST way for an unscrupulous or even malevolent businessman to get away with their sculduggery is to have the seal of approval from government officials, who tend to be underpaid and overworked. We set ourselves up for the guys we hire to be our watchdogs to be bribed! And they don't even have to be corrupt. They just got a whiz-bang power-point and a nice steak dinner from the nice man from Monsanto who wants to "understand" the regulations a little better. General Electric always sends the nicest people. If I wanted to sell my GMO foods and I knew the public wouldn't go for it and might come after me, I'd spend a couple million on lining the pockets of a handful of people at the top of the Dept of Agriculture and over at Food and Drug, as well. Make pals with Environmental Protection. Couldn't hurt, amirite? And this is exactly what they do, and have been doing for a long time. Injecting cattle with antibiotics and hormones. Feeding cattle GMO feed grains that are pest-resistant, because they spliced it with another plant that's poisonous! And then we eat that beef and we wonder why we're sick or why our kid's autistic or why our son thinks he's a girl, or why our fertility rates are dropping. Maybe it all goes back to that GMO plant whose defense mechanism is to neuter the bugs that eat it! My dunno! Frogs with tits! I think as our society evolves, that having your own greenhouse, your own victory garden, is going to be a lifestyle choice. I know I'd pay double for produce, if I could get it from a local, sensible farmer, who's looking out for me, so I'll keep coming back to him, year after year. We could do worse than go back to the village market that inspired Adam Smith.
