GM crop farms filled with weeds

Reading back through the thread you could take the noiton that Jim is saying, `Yes, GM and the USA approach is right to be suppressing poor countries so we can keep our jobs.' But how is GM suppressing anyone? Jim seems to agree, though he hasn't specifically said it, that he agrees with the way GM crops have been designed to produce dependence upon the GM companies. Sorry but I never said anything of the sort. What I said is that a lot of people in the various green organisations seem determined to ensure that the population of the third world remain subsistence farming peasants. If these people get education, training and start producing industrial goods, providing services such as call centres and software development (As India has done, a country that went from third world basket case to regional superpower in less than a generation) they will undercut the wages of over protected first world employees Jim Webster |
