Just follow the money .. what really burns my butt is that farmers who do not grow monsanto's seed will accidentally via the wind have their crops pollinated by monsanto crops and then the poor farmer has to pay monsanto a royalty for any seeds collected that have their patented genes .. that is so very, VERY wrong.

I've been to the foodchange site and signed their petition.
