Folks are we headed in the right direction? In my opinion, we need to discredit the environmentalists, as liars. Discrediting them in court in, legislative hearing, and most important in the eyes of the public, their almost unanimous stance against high yield agriculture will go a long way tarnishing them. Showing pictures of staving Africans, standing around warehouses full of American corn, is just an example of what can be done.

There is not one shred of evidence that genetically modified food has harmed the environment or a single human being. Yet, environmentalists are telling African governments, the corn will poison you! If they are willing to kill people for their agenda, how can they be believed on other issues?

That is exactly how the environmentalists got so powerful. They caught big bussiness polluting and covering it up. They discredited them and rightly so. Since that time Bussiness, industry, and the public have embraced a clean and healthy environment. The environmentalists have never let up and are now pushing a draconian agenda.

We must regain our creditability and tarnish theirs. Then and only then, can we negotiate with them.
