Food Safety Scam: The Letter of the Law Makes Criminals of Us All

07-05-2009 • Farm Wars

Considering that the only real competition the multinationals have – food localization and self-sufficient growers – it is in the best interests of Monsanto, et. al. and the USDA to make it as hard as possible on anyone who does not support GMO, factory farming, and multinational food control. To eliminate the competition is a primary goal of these corporations, and make no mistake, independent food growers are the competition.   Through wording designed to be “all inclusive,” the ammunition is there to use against such people as the home gardener, and if these bills pass, it is only a matter of time before someone pulls the trigger. In other words, if law enforcement has a gun, the enforcers are fully aware of the fact that the gun is there, and they know exactly how to use it.
