. GM seed producers would deny them this.


You want to ignore the core moral argument and go issue by issue. They don't have to buy GM seed, TS. They can keep using what they have. Farmers are the most conservative Businessmen on earth. They like progress, but hate change. They buy the GM seed and agree to the contract on it because they find it more profitable to do so. The Agricultural company owns the seed, and sell it to people who abide by their terms. You don't like that. Tough Toenails. It is the moral and legal way to do it.

You could come out with a new seed for rice, etc, and sell it. Good luck on trying to get people to pay you a royalty because you found the genome for it.

If you're incapable of understanding the ethical problems here...But since you show occasional signs of intelligence...This would match your cretinous support... Are you always so bitterly unhappy?

Do you want to join Win in playing the "insult" game? You are a no better at it than he is. If you want to exchange posts with me, please be civil.
