What is it you do RD78, if you don't mind me asking?
Another issues with GMOs is the fact that you can't reuse the seed that you grow. It is putting our food supplies in the hands of a private corporation that is solely concerned with making money for shareholders.

The picture on GM cultivation bans across Africa is not clear due to the current pressure being put on many African governments by the Biotech industry and the Gates Foundation to lift long-standing bans on the import of unmilled GMO seeds or unmilled GMO food aid, however two countries do still have full legal bans on GM crop cultivation:
Algeria (since 2000)
Madagascar (since 2002)

If I patent a product, I have the right to sell it with certain limitations in the contract. If you do not want my product under the stipulations, then don't buy it. But that is a completely different topic than if GMOs are safe.
Who said to ban all GMOs?
I just ask that people look into why so many other countries have banned GMOs
I am skeptical about GMO products. Some of it from pure ignorance on my part, some of it because their business practices make me not trust them. It is sad that politics and money have made the truth so hard to.find.
RD78 has there ever been a study on GMOS and any links to obesity? Always been curious if there was a link between the two.
Remove these issues and GMO's will be wonderful.Hungarians Just Destroyed All Monsanto GMO Corn Fields
excerpt:
GMO seeds are not considered worrisome and dangerous simply because they are modified, but it is that they are modified to handle massive doses of glyphosate (Roundup), and not die. They are made to take baths in the chemical herbicide that is so dangerous for human consumption, and it is the fear that the buildup of glyphosate within crops is a potential cause for the recent rapid increase in autism, cancers, and other long-term developing illnesses. The company Monsanto has been so aggressive legally to cover up any public ill, believed to be hushing farmers, buying off segments of the government and paying off scientists in the U.S. that it is hard for anyone to know what logistical data has been soured, and what truths to believe. It has become easier for countries like Hungary to plow under the crop than to try to disseminate between what is fact and what is farse with Monsanto's disastrous reputation and communication failures.
There is also the factor that when Monsanto seeds are found to be present on land, they fight for ownership of those seeds, and consider them as patent infringement, theft, or whatever you want to call it. Rather than fight the giant in court every time their seeds blow into a field, it's easier to wipe them off the map.
Remove these issues and GMO's will be wonderful.
Monsanto is the biggest player and the biggest problem. You wanna talk GMO problems you talk about Monsanto.And the other point. Monsanto does not equal GMOs. There are more companies and GMOs than those produced by Monsanto. It drives me crazy that you cannot seem to separate what Monsanto does with its seeds from GMO food products made by other companies
Monsanto is the biggest player and the biggest problem. You wanna talk GMO problems you talk about Monsanto.
