Hillary Clinton herself is Right Wing, when it comes to endless war, endless surveillance, and she is also in bed with Monsanto and GM food.
Christians how are Right Wing are against Monsanto and GM food, and they are far more likely to know that over in Europe, some very decent science has been done that shows serious indications that the GM crappola injures the vital organs of mammals fed GM food.
The Christian crowd may be arriving at the notion of avoiding GM because their Lord and God tells them to keep clean the temples of their bodies, but they are smart enough to turn to science that is untainted by the buyouts of laboratories, including university laboratories, that is going on in this Corporate-Controlled Nation.
Meanwhile, the Centrist Democrats turn to Corporate-owned "science" to tell us that either all is well, or that "we just don't have enough data yet."
The idea that we "don't have enough data yet" to know if GM foods and seeds are good or bad is a most interesting one.
Back in the old days - circa 1930 to 1960 - the public did not get offered up an item until decades of data proved that the item was safe or dangerous. (Both asbestos and cigarettes were "grandfathered in - and that status meant that people in the USA died on account of being allowed to work in asbestos-contaminated facilities, or to consume nicotine, but many other new products never reached the work place or the market because of their manufacturers' needing to prove safety before being licensed by the EPA or FDA.)
But GM foods have had NO DATA. They were introduced under Reagan/Bush. Then Bill Clinton fondly promoted so many Monsanto people into heading various departments at FDA that he truly can be blamed for the contamination of our food stuffs. And his wife follows in his footprints.
Why is it that wheat is now in everything in our boxes and cans of food? Well, because American wheat farmers cannot sell wheat overseas any more. The wheat is sprayed with RoundUp and ends up being heavily contaminated by fusarium and vomitoxin. Americans are now eating this stuff and living on Zantac and Prilosec, as the fungal and viral matter now covering and even inside the wheat kernels is so devastating to human health.
