You guys are missing the point. This isn't about GMO crops themselves, this is about giving Momsanto immunity, and allowing them to strong-arm the government and USDA into getting whatever they want. While definitely a partly ecological issue, it is foremost a democracy issue. This would be like BP or some other oil company trying to get a law passed that would require the government to automatically approve any drilling request they wanted, while severely limiting the EPA's ability to oversee operations. Regardless of ones stand on GMOs themselves, one should still agree that corporate railroading of all kinds (regardless of your stance on the products themselves) is bad for us and the planet.

We're the middle children of history, man. No purpose or place. We have no Great War. No Great Depression. Our Great War's a spiritual war... our Great Depression is our lives.
