What are you hungry for?
Saturday, January 9th, 2010I’ve been cooking up this blog since I lived in Germany in the early 90s. I read “Food 2000″, a coffee-table book, touting “food miracles” – scientists solving world hunger and such. It was sponsored propaganda against Alliance 90/The Greens. I was horrified by what I saw.
I was just beginning to recover from an “incurable” auto-immune-related condition little understood by Medical Science, using dietary and other natural methods. I told myself I would help change the system of systems.
Now Agribusiness is moving from propaganda to sinister control. Scientific American, explains how Bio-engineering companies own articles published about their seed. Cropchoice.com explains how farmers using seed infected by patented seed are guilty of stealing. Food Inc. is eating up the conscience of consumers. Watch it, and take a symbolic stand, however small.
Yesterday Forbes arrived, with Monsanto on the cover as Company of the year. Forbes’ arrogance since the economic meltdown has shocked this longtime reader. The Frankenstein monster of business is running rampant. Our food supply is controlled by companies bio-engineered for greed.
Greg Brown sings “I watched my country turn into a coast-to-coast strip mall and I cried out in a song: if we could do all that in thirty years, then please tell me you all – why does good change take so long?” Join us and speed up change.
