I often wonder why our government doesn't follow through with the wishes of the majority of the people they govern. I am referring to labeling our food products so we, as consumers, can make an informed decision whether to purchase a product or not. Would it be that difficult to print a new label and let us know what is really in the food we consume?
If you haven't noticed, and why would you, there is a big push for using GMO (Genetically Modified Organisms) seeds throughout the country. When I speak to people every day about GMOs I get the same reaction, "What's that"? The reason they ask me that question is because our wonderful main stream media is silent on the subject. If they don't report on it most people don't know these GMOs exist.
So what is the big deal about GMOs? Very simply, it is the unknown. We know through research that they have a debilitating effect on lab animals. When GMO food is consumed by these animals it effects their organs and causes infertility. Still think its not a big deal? How about cows that were feeding on some GMO cotton and most of them died.
When it comes to our health and the food supply in this country I believe it is the responsibility of the press to keep the American people informed about the dangers of such chemicals. I recently saw a children's book published by the Biotech industry on the advancements of GMO crops and how they are helping feed the world. You can check out this book on indoctrination here http://bit.ly/H5gcYQ Yes, they are indoctrinating our kids with lies about the benefits of these new seeds that will feed the hungry, grow in drought areas and the list goes on.
My question is, "If these seeds are so safe and do so much good for the world, then why the secret"? Why doesn't every food product that contains GMOs tout the benefits of them? If they were that good wouldn't you want to know that you are getting a great product that contains GMOs? As a matter of fact, I would go out of my way to look for a product that contains GMOs. The funny thing is that the opposite is actually the case. I go out of my way to find foods that don't contain GMOs.
I recommend you do some research on the subject and a good place to start is reading a couple of books by Jeffrey M Smith. He is the leading expert in the US on the subject of GMOs. He has written a couple of books called "Seeds of Deception" and "Genetic Roulette". Once you read these books I think you will agree that there shouldn't be any secrets from the public about what these genetically altered seeds can do to our population. Please don't bury you head and hope that this will go away. Understand we are at war with the food manufacturers and now the government. All we ask is that they don't keep these known facts a secret from us. I personally don't think that is too much to ask...do you?
