Take a look at this interesting article -

The Next Battleground: The world's food supply

It details how Monsanto is using bribery, the law, intimidation and any other means available to it to start to control the world food supply with it's genetically modified and patented seeds. Not only is the behavior described in the article reprehensible and scientifically worrying, but food is *the* most important product in the world. If one company controls the vast majority of the world food supply, especially considering their development of "suicide seeds", you can predict a worrying situation where that one company effectively controls the entire world. If the only way a farmer can grow a crop is by paying monsanto, and using their seeds which cannot be reused even a year later, then Monsanto is the only game in town - the absolute and ultimate arbiter of who eats, how much they eat, and what they pay for that. Because of the natural processes which allow plants to cross pollinate, such as wind, birds, insects, it is close to inevitable that sooner or later, every crop is a monsanto crop, whether farmers choose to use them or not. If those crops then are unable to propagate from year to year, we could feasibly end up in a completely untenable position.

Scary.

It is more likely that they intend to distribute the genes they tested which sterilized cattle that ate the feed. This would effectively sterilize the population of the planet.

I get the feeling that they want the population down to around 500,000.
Just a number I picked up off a rock somewhere.

I think what I find most worrying about all of it, is just the sheer arrogance of assuming that the ecosystem we have, designed by nature over thousands of years, somehow inferior to one messed around with by humans who have only been studying it for what, a decade?

First do no harm - surely *that* is an even more vital concern when you have the lives of multiple entire species in your hand?

There needs to be a massive World Wide Class Action suite against Monsanto so they can be sued back into the stoneage.

I saw a documentary about Monsanto, they are a danger to humanity. To plant diversity, to local farmers, etc. It is a corporation that wants to control every bit of you food.

"On January 15, the Obama Justice Department launched an anti-trust investigation against the corporate behemoth (Monsanto) over its next generation of genetically modified "Roundup Ready" soybean seeds. The very next day, the U.S. Supreme Court agreed to hear the case Monsanto v. Geertson Seed Farms, which challenges the safety of genetically modified agricultural products -- the centerpiece of the Monsanto empire. If the investigation fails, farmers will have to switch over to the next generation of Roundup Ready seeds in 2014. And the cycle of corporate abuse and monopolization will continue."

Let's hope that Monsanto can be knocked down a few pegs if the anti-trust investigation can be done without too much outside influence...
