Observation on the GMO arguement:

Posted by oldtanker on May 20, 2016 at 07:29:06 from (66.228.255.59):

For both sides of the argument:

1. People have for the most part made up their minds and all the bickering isn't going to change things.

2. When you start telling people they are dumb or ignorant you just lost that argument with them and anyone else who sides with them. Not because of right or wrong but because of the implied insult. Face it, if you are insulted you get angry just like everyone else and are going to fight even harder to prove your point.

3. For both the pro and con views you have already made up your mind. The only people you may convinced are the undecided. It's kinda like the hard core Dems and Reps. They are going to vote party ticket. You are not going to change their minds. The ones you have to convince are the independents.

4. Citing "studies" really isn't winning anyone over. Most of us know that studies are easily compromised by whomever has the money.

Get over it. Sustainable farming and organic are not fads that are going away anytime soon. People are more aware of what they are stuffing in their mouths than ever before. It's gone from being a fad to being a niche market. A growing niche market at that. Companies like General Mills, Pepsi and McDonalds are got going to cane sugar, GMO free and grass fed because of a fad. They are switching because of shifts in market demand.

Funny about some of the PRO GMO guys here. You don't trust the government, you don't trust the oil companies, you don't trust the companies that build you cars/trucks/equipment but you trust a seed company? That I don't get. The only conclusion I can come up with is that your decision to trust GMO's is not driven by anything other than potential profit or at least that's the only thing I can figure out.
