In many forums I seem to keep coming across some debate over the relevance of HR875 as it pertains to Organic Farming. I'm surprised there is even room for such a debate in this day in age - then again, there are drones that buy into the propaganda such as the defensive page Monsanto went out of their way to put up on their site in their defense. Just as they did when Food Inc. was released.
It's assuring to know that there are so many informed activists countering the propaganda left and right. I found some really great stuff urging folks to look beyond the distraction of HR875 to look further down the road at what other things are happening in the restructuring of food regulation.
Still though, the battle continues, as propaganda discounting the importance of Organic Food seems to be popping up left and right.
Most likely, propaganda such as this holds little water to any consumer with a little insight. At least not compared to the powerful melding between corporations and government that goes way beyond lobbying. Things like Monsanto's own Michael Taylor's position as 'food czar' in the FDA.
This is why each one of us has an urgent responsibility to investigate the present state of the food industry and to look at where it is headed. This is a crucial time to spread awareness and protect the health of our future as a whole. Research these issues on your own and do what you can to promote local organic farming and help destroy Monsanto in anyway possible...
