The end of Agribusiness insanity can only be destruction of the system that truly provides food: the earth’s ecology. When that has been well and truly subverted, Gaia will strike back in the greatest passive-aggressive display ever seen: The earth will simply stop providing. Agribusiness would like to sterilize the world. It is, of course, a business decision. If the goal were to improve health, then they would long ago have focused on growing healthier foods—but they don’t. It’s all about profits. When their bottom line was hurt by food poisoning outbreaks, they had to find a way to suppress it. So, instead of sterilizing foods just before purchase, such as milk that’s pasteurized milk and irradiated foods, they’re now focused on sterilizing the farms themselves, Growers are being forced to do insane things to continue selling to major markets: The extent of all these new rules is anybody’s guess. Corporations that require them, such as Chiquita, are refusing to tell even California’s air, water, and wildlife agencies what they are, saying that they’re proprietary. There is no science to back these earth-hating rules. They are, in fact, counterproductive. It is likely that the very existence of the virulent E. coli pathogens is a result of Agribusiness practices.(1) This particular pathogen was unknown before 1982, and there is good reason to believe that it developed as a result of the wholesale treatment of food animals with antibiotics to increase their growth—thus increasing the ever-sacrosanct profits of agribusiness. The problem lies within Agribusiness itself—within its systems of growing, processing, storing, and transporting the stuff that starts out as food, but ends up as processed foodstuff. Food is removed from its source. In the effort to make foodstuffs that look good and provide bigger profits to industry, it was necessary to separate the fact of eating from its origins. What now passes as food comes from huge buildings with bright lights, a dazzling and dizzying array of come-ons, carefully placed products to assure they attract the right eyes, and techniques to keep people moving towards the highest-profit and lowest value foodstuff. Reality has been displaced by marketing. Hidden from the eyes of people—now transformed into consumers—is the truth of what they’re buying. That big fat chicken is full of antibiotics and water. The beautiful apple is that and nothing more; beauty has replaced taste, texture, and nutrition. As might be expected when reality is denied, the system itself is flawed. The mathematician Gödel proved that any closed system contains paradoxes and contradictions. Ultimately, these contradictions will destroy the system. Nature cannot be permanently blocked. Agribusiness is now trying to sterilize the earth in its attempts to control what it has wrought. They pack animals into smaller and smaller spaces, often without room to turn around. They’ve engineered them to the point of destroying their nature. Picture the wild turkey, the wily forest fowl so impressive to Benjamin Franklin that he thought it should be the national bird, and compare that with the nearly mindless turkey of today, with breasts so big its legs cannot support it. Genetic engineering has produced fish that grow to huge size and can breed with native salmon and trout, resulting in superfish that can outcompete both their parents, not to mention the Enviropig. Then they stuff these creatures with antibiotics to stave off disease that must be rampant in such weakened and crammed animals, and worse, to make them grow faster and become edemic, so their tissues are soaked and fattened with water. Bacteria are bound to mutate in such an environment—and that they’ve done with a vengeance. Now, we have disease-bearing forms of E. coli so common that they infect massive arrays of foodstuff. So now, Agribusiness wants to sterilize the earth—not because they care about the harm done to people. After all, what do they care about the harm they’ve already done to animals, plants, environment, and people’s health? What concerns them is profits. To that purpose, there is no end to what they’re willing to do—including sterilizing the earth. And that’s exactly what they’re doing. It will, of course, be sold to people, that is, consumers, in terms of safety. The end of such insanity can only be destruction of the system that truly provides food: the earth’s ecology. When that has been well and truly subverted, it will strike back in the greatest passive-aggressive display ever seen: Gaia will simply stop providing. Poster Comment: Monsatan and their cronies in Big Agribiz are busy pushing an agenda that really has only 2 objectives: 1. Depopulation of the "little people" - meaning anyone not in their elite club. 2. Money made at the expense of other people dying young or preferably just dying. I've made the point over and over and I think most people on 4um get it. However, we need to think about this as an issue to help in waking others to the very real danger they and their loved ones are in.

The wide use of Roundup as an all-purpose weed killer on some 200 million acres of Roundup-ready crops has, not surprisingly, produced weeds that are resistant to glyphosate. The May 3, 2010, New York Times reported that 10 species of Roundup- resistant weeds have been found in at least 22 states. A Roundup-ready crop is not a super ag product; it’s a superweed vector. The most healthful foods come from organic farms. I know, since I raised organic food myself many years ago. It was healthful right up until we had to move from where we were located. ;) "When bad men combine, the good must associate; else they will fall, one by one." Edmund Burke
This is a no-brainer. ;) "When bad men combine, the good must associate; else they will fall, one by one." Edmund Burke
A Roundup-ready crop is not a super ag product; it’s a superweed vector. Concur on the superweed generator. Also GMO crops with the Bt gene built in, pesticide, are producing super pests. As an example Corn. The Corn Root Borer is one of the things that the Bt Corn was supposed to stop. It did, but only for a while. Mother nature is much better than the genetic engineers at rapid adaptation and now there is a new species of Corn Borer that is resistant to the Bt gene and so we now have a super pest for which the prescription is ever more powerful pesticides (read ever more dangerous and harmful to humans). These bastards care nothing whatsoever about the human toll. In fact they, I believe, specifically want a human toll as part of their psychotic depopulation program.
