Monsanto Protection Act

The bulletin following this one came to me from Jeanne Ingress, a candidate for the US Congress, and a friend of mine, who also sent me the information on the Postmaster General of North America, which I strongly suggest you look into, if you want your rights and your freedom back.

Monsanto owns fifty different companies, including Coke, Pepsi, Aunt Jemima, basically everything that has anything to do with bio-engineered wheat products and high fructose corn syrup.

The massive overconsumption of these prodeucts is driving all of the metabolic disasters that lead to so many illnesses that could be prevented, and never mind Obamacare.  (See http://www.baye.com/, check out links to paleolithic nutrition).

In addition, due to the high water consumption for the irrigation of these crops, the Oglala Aquifer, under the midwest states, will be drained down to five percent, by the year 2020.  This is a society killer, an absolute disaster of epic proportions, when we find ourselves in the middle of another dust bowl, that we do not have the water left to irrigate our way out of, perhaps on top of a depression far worse and longer lasting than that of the thirties (ref: http://www.endofthedollar.com/, http://www.endofamerica15.com/).  

The dust bowl of the thirties, obviously, came immediately on the heels of the Depression.  What was that about history being repeated due to mankind's inability to learn from the lessons of the past?

Has Obama, Romney, or any other politician you know, said a doggone word, ever, about the hyper-reliance upon bio-engineered grain agriculture, what it is doing to the human metabolism and our health care system, or the coming dustbowl due to the draining of the Oglala Aquifer?

Of course not.  Why?

Obama, Romney, the Clintons, Bushes, Dianne Feinstein, Nancy Pelosi, and a long laundry list of international power players--media figures, financiers, corporate executives, and politicians--are members of the Council on Foreign Relations, and/or it's sister organization, the Trilateral Commission (the force behind the large scale water diversion projects, such as the North American Water and Power Association, that I was writing about in 1993, as a student at UNH).

Since 1919, members of the Council on Foreign Relations have been calling for "an end run around national sovereignty, in pursuit of a New World Order."

David Rockefeller, (Chase Manhattan, Citibank, Exxon, Mobil, Standard Oil, etc...), founder of the Trilateral Commission, has been widely quoted as saying that he has an agenda to undermine the United States in pursuit of a Trilateralist world government.

The Council on Foreign Relations and Trilateral Commission are funded by Monsanto, Archer Daniels Midland ("bread basket to the world"), Alcoa (Aluminum smelting, the source of all the flouridation of the water), British Petroleum, AFL-CIO (the unions that Obama is beholden to), Goldman Sachs, Merrill Lynch, Shearson-Lehman, the list goes on and on.

These operators own the corporate media.

These operators use their charade of Republican vs. Democrat, to divide YOU and smokescreeen away the truth.

For over twenty years, since I first ran for the legislature as a Republican (later, in 1996, as a Libertarian), I have spoken and written too many times, to no apparent avail, to warn YOU, of what is in store for YOU, with this business about a New World Order.

Henry Kissinger acts as a prelate to presidents (Republican and Democrat) on behalf of the international bankers (Rothschilds, Warburgs, Rockefellers, Harrimans, DuPonts....)

I dare you to Google: Kissinger/food as a weapon, Agenda 21/food as a weapon, Club of Rome/food as a weapon.

These operators have plans for YOU.

As Sheriff of Strafford County, I will be here to defend YOU, your rights, freedom and your country.

The same is true of Congressional candidate Jeanne Ingress and Presidential candidate Rod Class.

URGENT: Stop the Monsanto Protection Act today!
Dear Jeanne

Last week the Senate passed its version of the Farm Bill by a vote of 64 to 35. Despite the hard won battles by Food Democracy Now! and our allies, the bill’s passage is another sad reminder that our elected officials in Washington, DC are continuing to place the interests of corporate lobbyists over the wellbeing of the American people.

Nowhere was that more evident than the vote against the Sanders’ “Consumers Right to Know About Genetically Engineered Food Act” (amendment S. 2310) that would have clarified state’s rights to label genetically engineered foods. Rather than stand up for the rights of Americans, 73 U.S. Senators chose to vote against your basic Right to Know what’s in your food.

Today the assault on our rights continues in the House of Representatives, where a provision was added to the House Agricultural Appropriations Bill that would strip federal courts of their authority to halt the sale and planting of an illegal and potentially hazardous GMO crop. This new provision, called a “rider”, would allow biotech companies to continue to sell their unapproved seeds to farmers, who could plant them while important legal appeals are taking place, instead of halting the planting of the unapproved crop until the court settled the appeal as has been done up until now.

In classic form, the biotech industry has cleverly hidden their toxic plan under the deceptive title of a “Farmer Assurance Provision” (Sec. 733). In truth, the language in this provision is nothing short of a “Monsanto Protection Act” that would allow this company to continue to flout American legal precedence and violate the constitutional separation of powers set forth by our Founding Fathers.

In short, the “Farm Assurance Provision” is the greatest threat to farmers’ and citizens’ rights that Monsanto and the biotech industry has ever devised and it must be stopped - today!
This provision is being debated this week in the House of Representatives and we need your help today. Click here to stop the Monsanto Protection Act and tell your member of Congress to stand up for your rights and the Constitution!

According to legal advocates at the Center for Food Safety, this provision “would create a precedent-setting limitation on judicial review” and is a “dangerous assault on fundamental federal and judicial safeguards”.

This current rider is a response to the successful lawsuits that farmers and groups like Center for Food Safety have filed on preventing the sale, distribution and cultivation of GMO sugarbeets and GMO alfalfa, both of which were forced to stop from being planted while the USDA finalized full environment reviews. But once again, Monsanto and the biotech industry are working behind the scenes to shred vital legal rights simply so they can make endless profits.

If allowed to pass, the Monsanto Protection Act would:
  • Violate the constitutional precedent of separation of powers by interfering with the process of judicial review.
  • Eliminate federal agency oversight to protect farmers, consumers and the environment from potential harms caused by unapproved biotech crops.
  • Allow Monsanto and biotech seed and chemical companies to profit by overriding the rule of law and plant their untested GMO crops despite no proof of their safety for the public and environment.

No matter what you believe about GMOs, the fact is that corporations should not have the right to fundamentally undermine our basic rights and constitutional freedoms in their relentless pursuit of profits. Even the consideration of this dangerous provision is a sign of just how much power Monsanto has over our federal government and how far the biotech industry will go to force its genetically engineered food on to the American public.

If allowed to pass, the Monsanto Protection Act will only open farmers and the agricultural economy to very real and significant harm from cross-contamination events. Currently, the Plant Protection Act requires the USDA to regulate GMO crops to protect “the agriculture, environment and economy of the United States”. As a result of previous lawsuits, the USDA is required to complete court-mandated environmental impact statements (EIS) prior to the sale and planting of GMO crops, but even the USDA has shown little regard for this law.

Now, the new provision set forth in the FY 2013 House Agricultural Appropriations Bill will allow biotech seed and chemical companies to openly skirt even minimal protections of human health and environmental concerns.
Fortunately, Congressman Peter DeFazio (OR-D) will introduce an amendment this week that will strike the “farmer assurance provision” currently included in the Agriculture Appropriations Bill and we need your help to make sure your member of Congress supports this important amendment to stop the Monsanto Protection Act.

Join Food Democracy Now! and our allies to help stop the Monsanto Protection Act. 

It’s time that our elected officials start putting our rights over the profits of Monsanto and biotech companies.
Thanks for participating in food democracy,
Dave, Lisa and the Food Democracy Now! Team
