If Bayer was able to prove that their Neonicotinoids were not responsible for all the honeybee devastation this BS Bayer bee care program wouldn’t even exist, guaranteed.
An individual that believes he can bargain with a company on his own for fair treatment and wages is fooling himself. It is well worth it to pay dues and form a union to speak for you. Without unions we wouldn't have health care, pensions, etc. People formed unions because they couldn't talk to "companies" and "companies" are just another name for a group of people, usually owners or highly paid officials whose job is to keep from paying workers and make sure that any benefits are kept to a minimum if there are any benefits. There will always be crooks so there will be bad unions as well as bad companies. What the workers have to do is stand up and fight! They should not give in because they truly are worth just as much as that fellow sitting in a big office and wearing an expensive suit. Without you he wouldn't be sitting there.
We belonged to a rose society and had a speaker at one of our meetings. Walmart would gather rose growers together, talk to them separately, and tell them what price they would be paid for their roses. If they didn't conform, they didn't do business. Shamefully, this could put the growers out of business because Walmart will do anything to undersell other companies. This underselling includes paying less for products, paying less for workers, working shorter hours so workers aren't eligible for health care and benefits. I don't want to do business with a "company" " business" that is so controlled by a few people that we don't matter. Sooner or later we just are not going to have the money to buy products no matter how cheap Walmart is.
Apparently you enjoy buying "seed" every season from chemical companies instead of working the seed from the fields, then just pass the cost to the consumer. You're about as thick as a brick if you think you, your family and all of America can ingest pesticides and herbicides endlessly and not get cancer from proven carcinogens in the "product." A few more reasons: Glyphosate destroys gut flora. The harvested soy, wheat, corn, etc. has no nutritional value when compared to REAL natural crops. Your automaton unity with Monsanto will prove your undoing in the end. Guess what. Recently an undercover reporter ate lunch with Monsanto hack men. They all insisted that only organic vegetables be served to them, and every politician who pretends to be on your side also eat organic, exclusively. They don't give a shit if half of America dies, more for them. More land, money, power, etc. YOUR land and money. So, ignorantly eat your own crops. In the end, because of idiots like you, ALL crops will be GMO, cross-pollinated with every crop in America and eventually globally. By then, you will realize the damage done to your family and every person in America who ate cereal and the other 35,000 processed foods containing GMOs. There will be no one to blame but your stupid self.
Many do not understand how plants work. They pass on traits to each other through pollination. If a farmer has organic certification, an expensive and time consuming endeavor, and a gardener within 500 miles plants a genetically modified species that contaminates the organic crop, the organic farmer will most certainly loose their certification which can financially ruin the organic farmer. Further, Monsanto has a history and habit of suing a farmer that is accidentally growing a GMO crop that has volunteered in their fields. Another misunderstood fact of GMOs is that they do not happen except through the science of forcing genes from differing species such as bacteria, virus, fungus, plants and animals together. After the creation is planted it has the ability to contaminate any and all of these species in a process called horizontal cross-contamination where, as an example: Bt toxin (a pesticide spliced in many GM crops) establishes itself in the guts of humans who eat the creation in tortilla chips, for example, creating holes in the digestive tract that cause severe allergies, diabetes, asthma, cancer and other degenerative diseases. Bt toxin is put into corn, soy and sugar beat GMOs to kill bugs by putting holes in their digestive systems. It is an unforeseen side-effect that Bt toxin has the same effect on humans.
