Gates has tried to keep his ties to genetically modified seeds on the down-low, but the issue got major attention last year when Monsanto tried to inject its hybrid seeds into Haiti after a massive earthquake devastated the island. Fortunately, the Haitian farmers were too smart to fall for this devious scheme. Farmer groups criticized the Gates Foundation's involvement, committed to burning the GM seed, and called for a march to protest Monsanto's presence in Haiti.

Social movements around the world are pressuring their governments for a moratorium on unproven GM seeds and foods, yet the United States is giving Monsanto free reign, aiding and abetting their agenda, and the Gates Foundation is starting to look more and more like just another arm to further Monsanto's reach.

In the second quarter of 2010, the Gates Foundation purchased 500,000 shares of Monsanto stock with an estimated worth of $23.1 million, which means they have a hefty interest in the success of Monsanto's golden rice and other initiatives.

It's always good news when a small sector, such as the farmers lobby in Haiti prevents millions of starving people from getting cheap food because they fear giving up their market share. They use big words like "unsafe" and "untested" to scare retards into believing that rice that has been engineered to withstand desease instead of ordinary rice that has been doused with chemicals to withstand that same desease is some how safer. What's next? Haiti rejects the AIDS vaccine because it's not tested either? STFU.

moral of the story is neither the GMO seeds or the chemicals are a good choice . did you know that the bible says not to mess with the seeds in any way. don't ask to to show you ,you can search it yourselves if you want to.

Quote

The Haber process now produces 100 million tons of nitrogen fertilizer per year, mostly in the form of anhydrous ammonia, ammonium nitrate, and urea. 3–5% of world natural gas production is consumed in the Haber process (~1–2% of the world's annual energy supply).[1][14][15][16] That fertilizer is responsible for sustaining one-third of the Earth's population, as well as various deleterious environmental consequences.[2][5] Hydrogen production using electrolysis of water powered by renewable energy is not yet competitive cost-wise with hydrogen from fossil fuels, such as natural gas, and so has been responsible for only 4% of current hydrogen production (almost all as a byproduct of the chloralkali process).

The bible also says if you fill a dirty wine bottle half way with water and then have God Shammgod jizz in the bottle and shake it up, you can make the cure cancer. Don't ask me to show it to you, you can look it up for yourself if you want to.
