I do not consider myself an activist but a participant. I do not align with any group or people or product based solely on approval or disapproval, financial situation or affiliation. I strive to bear my options and opinions by my own research, thoughts, observations, experiences and also due to greater scientists, writers, thinkers than I- past and present. I aim to ruffle a few feathers again...please listen.
There is no greater threat to mankind than a non viable seed supply.
I will always, until my dying day- speak out against that unimaginable end- a Silent Spring...
Freedom is at stake- when the fork you lift contains ingredients not of nature but of corporate greed large enough to bypass even the USDA and infiltrate invisibly both the fields of plenty in our great nation as well as the fields of freedom that our votes once allowed us- when deregualtion of an absolute uncertain modification is allowed to possibly infiltrate our food supply based on research done solely by the corporation itself and our government, from the bottom up says- "that's good enough for us", we certainly must question that government and remind them that this is not a dictatorship but a democracy.
President Obama is accepting letters, he may not actually read them- but surely the White House might consider the mountain of evidence from concerned citizens who refuse to accept one sided reports that concern everyone's livelihood, freedom of choice in the food we eat, in the seeds we plant. Perhaps if thousands would make just one statement-
"We need absolute proof from ALL SIDES before we ingest anymore of this substance -before we allow it's unknown repercussions to our precious land."
or simply offer up this question that must be answered fully and without deceit -
Are genetically modified seeds benign or malignant?
If that question cannot be answered without full disclosure from all studies- now is not the time to allow Roundup Ready Alfalfa to prosper.
Please visit the link below. I am not asking you to give a dime or a drop of blood. I am beseeching you to concern your self with what concerns each and every one of us. There is a direct link to President Obama's office. Thank you.

I hope that soon I will read that the people have spoken- that we care enough to dare say "answer our questions fully or we will continue to question everything"...trust is such a hard thing to earn, it's time our government tried to earn it again and not bypass the citizens that make up what has always been a land fought and won for freedom's sake, not for a corporation's way-over-the-line greed.
And one more thing, since you've come this far- do treat your self to President Roosevelt's speech that turned the tide for so many, I don't know if it's fear that most needs conquered these days...but I am certain it is greed, and we as a nation must take a stand against it.
