Goodness. Monsanto takes a bullet? Isn’t that kind of a first? They must not have paid Obama enough to cover for them.

At issue is the planting of so-called Roundup Ready beets that allow the agribusiness giant Monsanto's Roundup herbicide to be used without harming the crops themselves..

Roundup itself is a nightmare. If you use it make SURE to wash your hands thoroughly, and keep far away from your children, and most especially pregnant women. the main ingredient has been shown to cause genital abnormalities in lab rats (mis-shapen, missing, both organs, double penises, yuck, etc.)

I'd like to know one basic fact about this story...how much beets are at stake? Tons? Hundreds of pounds? How much, you incompetent agenda-driven reporter.

The article's main thrust is not about reporting facts but making the point abundantly clear that we must submit to the government.

Off topic a bit, but interesting info on beets >>.

IMO, the stench from a beet plant is as bad as a paper-pulp plant.

Now Monsanto needs to pay damages caused by their modified wheat genes that they allowed to infect others fields.

Ya know, they’ve GMO’ed corn genes with human genes to the point that your corn flakes are being used by intelligence agencies to relay your critical conversations right from the breakfast table. (you know, “ears” of corn, right?)
