Thank you for your response. One of the best thing about this site is both of us get to hear the views of others we normally would not have a chance to otherwise. So allow me to play devils advocate some more and talk about GMO in general.
In my mind GMO and hybrids from controlled breeding are two different animals. They are not animals of a different color but two totally different species.
While it is true GMO feeds more people with less farmers on less land that may not be the driving force. I feel bigger profits is the root of this driving force. That is not a bad thing but on the other hand believing in something just because it makes for a better bottom line is not always the best path to take. Growing said products may be the best path to take for now but believing in it is a different story.
Many wonder how you can invent a chemical that kills every plant in site; and then invent a plant that it will not kill. Is that really a good thing. Or are we living in the present and saying to he!! with the future. What will we do when we can not kill weeds; or bugs take over because they have become resistant. Go back to using chemicals like DDT that also harms humans and destroys wildlife.
The list goes on and on. Ask a city kid what butter taste like. Not the oil we eat today. Ask him what real chicken taste like not the 6 week old cage bird of today. On and on
The bottom line always rules. Do what ever you can to bring in more and send out less money.

Elliott said while this
