If you've only got time for the first 15-20 minutes, watch that much. It's well worth it. Watch it in intervals at your leisure.
A very enlightening film so far.
I never realized how much power the Carlyle group held and the propaganda and marketing they play on the people of this country.
Also, it is no surprise that over 71 contracts to companies were given after the 911 attacks, to go into Iraq and Afghanistan. This was done in September of the same month of the attacks, which tells you that they had this already planned well in advance.
"Monsanto should not have to vouchsafe the safety of biotech food. Our interest is in selling as much of it as possible. Assuring its safety is the FDA's job."
- Phil Angell, Monsanto's director of corporate communications, 1998.
In 2009, President Obama appointed Michael Taylor as a senior adviser for the FDA. Consumer groups protested the appointment because Taylor had formerly served as a vice president for Monsanto, the controversial agricultural multinational at the forefront of genetically modified food.
Umm, Phil, is anyone home?

Yep, no conflict of interests there. What a bunch of criminals that need to be dispatched to HELL

Lots of criminals involved.
Yeah central control system hierarchies are the model of our societal systems.
The genetic modification done by Mosanto has so far shown no impact. . .though its hard to test something like a genetic modification of a plant. Its not like you can do a clinical trial (i.e. molecule).
Though someone posted earlier that if you look at the UPC code, you can tell a GMO produced product (genetically modified items should contain 5 digits and begin with 8) which seems to me to meet the needs. . .of those on here. I mean you want to be able to tell, you can look. If you don't care. . .don't look
This does remind me of the revolt against immunization or pharmaceuticals
You would throw away the huge benefits of these goods and what they can do to feed mankind, make us healthier, etc. . .on the off chance that somewhere there may be some impact on some specific modification
Its like banning all drugs (or put big scary warning labels on all drugs) because of a recall of a specific drug . . .
That is not true. The only code that suggests it may not be GMO begins with a 9, organic.
If it is a 4-digit number, the food is conventionally produced.
If it is a 5-digit number beginning with an 8, it is GM. However, do not trust that GE foods will have a PLU identifying it as such, because PLU labeling is optional. [4]
If it is a 5-digit number beginning with a 9, it is
organic.[5]
