1:50. Glyphosate is introduced at 1:50.  Glyphosate is categorized as an antibiotic, the etymology of which translates to "anti-life."  It's a molecule that you use every single day either directly or indirectly and glyphosate is a very close cousin to Agent Orange it's called an organophosphate by a small company you've never heard of, called Monsanto.  They used it for warfare during the Vietnam War to kill the trees, to defoliate the jungles so that pilots could see the Vietcong, and to shoot them with small caliber weapons to try to disable/incapacitate them so they have to take care of their injured.  It turns out that word got out in the 1970s that there was not a demand for this chemical they had been making, and they knew that it caused cancer.  So they looked for an organophosphate of the same family that was less toxic than Agent Orange.  And this one happened to be patented back in the 1950s, 1959 by a Japanese researcher who made the chemical and patented it and they started buying it up and then we're going to find some use for this chemical, and when they first did it they thought it's going to be really brilliant for cleaning deposits from calcified pipes, basically a biochemical roto-rooter and clean things out.  In 1974, it didn't get patented as a weed killer, but it did make it into Round-Up as the most active ingredient and became the most successful weed killer on earth.  Your community is spraying it on roadsides, and parks, and that chemical has never been patented as a weed killer; it's been patented as an antibiotic.  So now we've got a chemical, that we're spraying worldwide to kill weeds yet it's actually glyphosate, an antibiotic and we're killing the microbiome of the soil we spray that on, which means we're going to start to grow plants that are deficient in nutrients because the microbiome of the plant, just like in the human, it's what feeds us.  

Early 1980s, Donald Rumsfeld, CEO of Monsanto and part of the Reagan transition team, got to appoint the new head of the FDA, who then went on to cast the deciding vote in favor of allowing Aspartame into the American food supply.

Take propionic acid (PPA), for instance. This common antifungal, used to extend the shelf life of processed food, is found in highly elevated levels in the stool of autistic children. Many cases of autism appear to be linked to gut dysfunction and microbial overgrowth, which PPA probably encourages by "nuking" the good microbes in the gut, allowing aggressive strains to invade and take hold.

Scientists, on the basis of early testing, were saying aspartame was a carcinogen in the late 1970s and early 1980s, but Donald Rumsfeld, who was CEO of the company that owned Aspartame [Searle], became part of the Reagan transition team and got to appoint the new head of the FDA, who then went on to cast the deciding vote in favor of allowing Aspartame into the American food supply. When Monsanto acquired the company that owned Aspartame soon after, Rumsfeld was paid $12 million by Monsanto as a golden handshake, almost certainly for his direct intervention to get Aspartame past the safety board.

This isn't an isolated story of corruption, of corporate profits being put before the health of the nation. This is how the system works. It's why the American food supply is loaded with ingredients whose effects on human health are totally unknown. It's why we regularly discover that common food ingredients are extremely harmful.

The whole system needs to change. We need an independent system that doesn't allow corporate influence to override the basic rights of the people to eat food that really is safe.

Monsanto Madness

 

Wait, Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas was a hired lawyer for Monsanto back in the 1970s? Talk about a revolving door! One of the most powerful corporations in the world has one of its own on the Supreme Court. Conflict of interest? What's that?

Let's see, Monsanto has produced products such as Agent Orange, Aspartame, Ready-RoundUp, and bovine growth hormone found in milk.  A long history of being unkind to mankind.  Yet, our Congress approved a Monsanto Protection Act.  Fruit Loops are 100% genetically modified.
