USDA deregulates GE alfalfa; opens door to new era of widespread genetic pollution of crops

Under these programs, the USDA uses chemical poisons to murder literally millions of birds each year, including an occasional endangered species animal by accident. This is all part of the USDA's insane program of death to protect the financial interests of conventional agriculture giants.

The high yield corn is not food!

You'll have to take that up with the cattle, hog, and poultry producers.

They've been using GM corn and soybeans almost exclusively for over a decade.

Tell them there animals have been eating poison.

Farmers ARE dunces aren't they?

SAve your bullshit for those that hunger for it (IOW: not here)

THAT'S your response to my pointing out that the lifspan of the average American has increased by more than 10 years over the last 40 or 50 years?

Genetic modification - isn't that what Luther Burbank did to great acclaim. "He developed more than 800 strains and varieties of plants over his 55-year career. Burbank's varied creations included fruits, flowers, grains, grasses, and vegetables. He developed a spineless cactus (useful for cattle-feed) and the plumcot."

Named a town in California after him too!

This study you are citing is NOT concerned with idiopathic Autism or vaccination correlation. It did not specify relationship to vaccinations. Vaccinated children were not excluded from this study. The research was studying populations which are not ethnically diverse and the incidence of autism related disorders (genetic and idiopathic being lumped together). These quotes from may help you understand the issue more fully...

“Strauss said the clinic treats “syndromic autism”, where autism as part of a more complicated clinical spectrum that can include mental retardation, chromosomal abnormalities, unusual facial features, and short stature, as well as Fragile X syndrome. “We see quite a few Amish children with Fragile X,” he said.”

(These things being seen more frequently in the Amish, who have a high prevalence of genetic risk factors and are NOT included in the symptoms of vaccination- related autism behaviors.)

Strauss says he doesn’t see “idiopathic autism” at the clinic, which he defines as children with average or above average IQs who display autistic behavior. “My personal experience is we don’t see a lot of Amish children with idiopathic autism. It doesn’t mean they don’t exist, only that we aren’t seeing them at the clinic.”

Lifespan has not increased.

The first eight generations of humans lived 900 years +/-.

Now we’re to live to 100.

You are one very odd fellow.

His medical license was jerked.

If you read the General Medical Counsel report, you will see that the investigation lasted 148 days.

They very carefully tabulated each of the charges, dismissing those that they found not valid or serious enough to censor him.

I quoted wiki because they had a nice summary. To quote all of the original stuff would take many pages and be very boring to most here.

I also read the ruling by the judge who was hearing Wakefield’s claims to libel and slander.

It is interesting to note that Wakefield dropped that litigation as soon as the judge made the decision that the case was to move forward.

When he dropped his claims, he paid the legal expenses of those who were forced to defend themselves against him.

He certainly would not have done so if he had any kind of a case.

If you read the charges against him and the decision by the GMC, you will see that they found him guilty of a variety of charges. To be found guilty of so many is pretty damning.

All I can say is that anyone who would defend him, other than his paid lawyer, is either not very bright or is not of very good character himself.

I like a good discussion. I even like a good argument. But it does become very tiresome when people ignore the facts.

I know. It is a conspiracy. By the news reporters, the TV, the judges and the General Medical Board.

Wow!

I am glad you exposed all of them.

Oh but he failed!

He never developed any “high yield” non-food varieties.

Good thing you’re old; you won’t be having any kids to vaccinate.

You are attempting to argue that inorganic foods have led to more deaths etc.

I pointed out that during the time that our country switched over from eating organic foods to inorganic, the lifespan of the average American has increased by more than 10 years.

The greater lifespan can be attributed, in large part, to eating inorganic.

Burbank did his work outside, not in a lab.

So, what he did doesn’t count.

Or something like that!

That takes the cake.

You are off your tracks.

The very reason social security is in so much trouble, other than the fact that politicians keep stealing the “trust” fund, is that people in general are living almost 20 years longer than they were in 1932.

Those who originated the idea of SS did not foresee the day when so many would live so long, in retirement for 20 or so years, coupled with the reduced birth rate resulting in fewer paying in and more getting benefits.

Here is an actuarial table:

http://www.efmoody.com/estate/lifeexpectancy.html

Note that in 1932 life expectancy was 59.2.

In 1997 life expectancy had increased to 76.5.

I realize this is wasted on you as you have some sort of a comprehension problem, but there are others here who might find it interesting.

“Eat real food, stay away from doctors unless you are injured, and you’ll be ok.”

I wish that more people thought like you. Every day I see people who believe if they get heart disease or high blood pressure or diabetes (it will not be a problem) their doctor will “fix it” with a pill.

Not surprisingly, they eat large amounts of overly processed, nutrient depleted refined carbs, fake foods with massive amounts of artificial sweeteners or high fructose corn syrup (not to mention trans-fats and preservatives galore). And why not? The USDA pyramid tells us that french fries and ketchup are vegetables ...

It would be so refreshing if the general public came to the realization that no one out there is going to save them (or improve their health). EDUCATE YOURSELVES!

The person who is RESPONSIBLE for your health (or lack of it) is YOU!

Then post the charts proving otherwise.

You’ll have as hard a time doing that as you will to find a connection between vaccinations and autism, now that the autism data faker has admitted his fakery in court.

Life spans have increased so much in recent years that life insurance companies have been forced to update all of their actuarial tables to reflect the new, lower, costs associated with mortality.

Its been good to get you out of the closet.

This thread is a keeper for that alone.

“How true about the vaccinations...ever wanted to know why the unvaccinated Amish DO NOT have any autistic children?...”

Uncontaminated gene pool maybe?

The bare fact that the Amish do not have autistic children, and that they do not get vaccinated does not prove that one is because of the other. If so, then the fact that fat people drink water means that water causes people to get fat.

Logical fallacy.

You can’t find the data to back your claim, can you?

Everything you’ve looked at shows we’re living longer.

Chuckle.
