The “Monsanto Protection Act” is the name opponents of the Farmer Assurance Provision have given to this terrifying piece of policy, and it’s a fitting moniker given its shocking content.

 

President Barack Obama signed a spending bill, HR 933, into law on Tuesday that includes language that has food and consumer advocates and organic farmers up in arms over their contention that the so-called “Monsanto Protection Act” is a giveaway to corporations that was passed under the cover of darkness.

There’s a lot being said about it, but here are five terrifying facts about the Farmer Assurance Provision — Section 735 of the spending bill — to get you acquainted with the reasons behind the ongoing uproar:

1.) The “Monsanto Protection Act” effectively bars federal courts from being able to halt the sale or planting of controversial genetically modified (aka GMO) or genetically engineered (GE) seeds, no matter what health issues may arise concerning GMOs in the future. The advent of genetically modified seeds — which has been driven by the massive Monsanto Company — and their exploding use in farms across America came on fast and has proved a huge boon for Monsanto’s profits.

But many anti-GMO folks argue there have not been enough studies into the potential health risks of this new class of crop. Well, now it appears that even if those studies are completed and they end up revealing severe adverse health effects related to the consumption of genetically modified foods, the courts will have no ability to stop the spread of the seeds and the crops they bear.

2.) The provision’s language was apparently written in collusion with Monsanto. Lawmakers and companies working together to craft legislation is by no means a rare occurrence in this day and age. But the fact that Sen. Roy Blunt, Republican of Missouri, actually worked with Monsanto on a provision that in effect allows them to keep selling seeds, which can then go on to be planted, even if it is found to be harmful to consumers, is stunning. It’s just another example of corporations bending Congress to their will, and it’s one that could have dire risks for public health in America.

      If GMO is so great, Monsanto and their employees should have no problem eating what they produce.
      They eat in an organic cafeteria!

        This is what happens when we look to false leaders to stop the assault. So called health store giants like whole foods or other ‘groups’ even supposedly ‘anti gmo’ groups are actually controlled opposition that’s why prop 37 failed. Now the gamble shills having been outed as controlled op are now trying to grab hold of the chemtrail movement to ride it to grow their scam and steer people to false solutions failure -
        BEWARE : ‘thrive’ is controlled opposition, same as zeitgeist scam etc. masonic symbolism is all over their junk. These billion dollar heirs money comes from Proctor and Gamble killing the planet for decades with toxic poisons. They’re a scam attempting to divert and control. Controlled ops are and will be coming at us from EVERY direction – see these

        helpfreetheearth.com/news461_thrive.html and this type also

        counterpunch.org/2013/03/19/factivism-and-other-fairytales-from-bono/

        see 12 minute vid on these fake leaders, – beforeitsnews.com/alternative/2013/03/checkmate-to-humanity-excellent-2597510.html

        Warn others to stay away from ‘thrive’ and all phony groups. Do not WASTE time on false leaders, spend time informing others about chemtrails. So what they got ‘moth spraying’ stopped over their house or whatever, that’s because they’re the ELITE. There is NO group, court or politician coming to ‘save the day’. The ONLY answer is to chemtrails inform others, then WE will have to do some kind of national work or tax stoppage. Of course Stop buying gmos now. Do not waste time on controlled ops DIVERSION to waste your TIME when you need to be informing others who Don’t know about chemtrails/gmos. Do NOT waste time on false leaders trying to divert and control you just like prop 37.
        SEE LINKS. Think for yourself. Stop looking to ‘leaders’ that are just Fronts for the cabal. YOU be the leader. Just copy up short notes with geoengineeringwatch.org and links above link to this article, add ‘copy/share with others’ and Warn to stay away from false leaders like thrive/gamble, give to nieghbors, strangers, parents, groups then WE the people can figure it out from there on our OWN.
        Tell everyone to stay away from ‘thrive’/gamble and all false leaders.

        Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation boasts that they ONLY serve locally produced 100% ORGANIC foods in the caffeteria at their ‘charity’ headquarters – yet they travel around preaching to everyone else how fantastic & safe GMO food is. WHAT A SICK JOKE. Clearly what’s meant to be good for the goose is not good for the gander.

      The u.s. of TERROR IS A corp-o-FASCIST STATE. You fools are governed by a federal gov. that has “merged” with private corporations! You have a current head of your FDA that is a former CEO of monsanto, and a supreme court justice who was an attorney representing monsanto for his whole ‘career’. That traitorous scum has NEVER RECUSED HIMSELF ONCE when voting on cases relating to the corp-o-o-criminal organization known as monsanto.

      This corporate entity “thing” can give more money than you to your ‘fearless’ dem-publician party leaders than you can, and these ‘things’ are recognized as much as an ‘individual’ as you are, under the ‘guise’ of your ‘law’, as proclaimed by your SCOTUS a few years ago.

      What a bunch of PATHETIC INDIVIDUALS YOU ameri-SCUM really are.
      Most of you DO deserve the ugly, diseased death you are going to get! :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

      I studied plant biotechnology at University and it is my sincere opinion that Monsanto is the most evil corporation in existence. Genetic modification is not an exact science as they would have the public believe, it is genetic roulette.
