Genetic Sabotage Once Again

Those of us living in California have been inundated with No on Prop 37 TV ads, with narrators moaning about how unfair and unreasonable it is for us to know exactly what we are eating. This writer urges you to vote yes on Prop 37.
There is a short article on the biology of why we should all have GMO food labeling in California and elsewhere http://tinyurl.com/96lv2bl here. There is a much longer article on the farming, ecology and human rights (legal) aspects of this complicated issue http://tinyurl.com/cth6rou here.
In California, many TV ads are urging us to take the sides of "farmers" and "doctors"" But farmers and doctors are not buying expensive prime time TV ad spots. Who exactly is buying the TV time for prop 37? The top 6-7 companies financing No on Prop 37 are pesticide companies and Genetically Modified crop seed companies. Unlike the "doctors' and "farmers' in the deceptive prop 37 ads, these pesticide/GMO companies literally poison 289,000 people per year with pesticides. Their deceptive ads are written as if they are helping you; actually these six big agrotechs cause far in excess of 289,000 cancer cases per year (chronic exposure to pesticides). These companies expect to be able to do literally anything at all to food, and have you buy and eat food with no labeling telling you what they did to your food.
Each year, around 2.5 million tons (2,500,000 tons = 5 billion pounds) of pesticide is dumped on the planet's crops. In 2002, an estimated 69,000 children were poisoned by pesticides in the US The World Health Organization reports 220,000 people die every year worldwide because of pesticide poisoning. Are you surprised pesticide companies do not want you to know what is in your food?
No on Prop 37 Financiers:
MONSANTO COMPANY $7,100,500.00. Monsanto was and still is a pesticide company, which also sells BT crop seeds; foods you end up eating that contain pesticides and man-made genetics. So, it is not farmers or doctors telling you the GMO food labels are unfair and unreasonable, the main financier of the ads is a pesticide-Franken foods company.
Monsanto earns billions of dollars from Asgrow, Genuity, Ready 2 Yield, Roundup Ready and BT crop seeds. France and Poland outlawed these seeds, Poland recently and France years ago. French people have far less diabetes and obesity, largely because they do not eat frankenfoods.
E.I. DUPONT DE NEMOURS & CO. $4,900,000.00 is also a pesticide company who genetically alters foods. Like Monsanto, DuPont does there own "safety testing' and the American public just takes their word for it that the bacteria and algae genes spliced into food genes are "safe'. These so-called biotech companies http://tinyurl.com/clrr8va have checkered pasts.
BASF PLANT SCIENCE $2,000,000.00 BASF's pesticide division supplies agricultural products and chemicals. The company produces fungicides, herbicides and insecticides including F500 (pyraclostrobin), epoxiconazole, pendimethalin, boscalid, fipronil, and seed treatment products.   The company also researches Nutrigenomics. BASF is neither poor California family farmer nor a woman pediatric doctor; this is a poison company that does not want you to know what you are eating.
BAYER CROPSCIENCE $2,000,000.00 Bayer's Gaucho insecticide is killing the world's bees, which could cause about 1/3 of the Earth's people to starve. Profits before bees or humans.
DOW AGROSCIENCES LLC $2,000,000.00 Dow is another pesticide company that makes genetically modified frankenfoods.
PEPSICO, INC. $1,716,300.00 Quaker Oats states that it is an "all-natural" product. But Quaker Oats (a unit of PepsiCo) manages a processing plant that emits roughly 19,000 pounds of sulfuryl fluoride yearly. Sulfuryl fluoride is a toxic greenhouse gas used to treat crops like oats in storage.
