The United States Government and GE companies have developed a patented technology "to create sterile seeds by selectively programming the plants DNA to kill its own embryos" Vandana Shiva. The USDA receives a 5% profit from the sales as a sort of policing action.
Farmers who save seed from these plants will be unable to get them to germinate. "Pea pods, tomatoes, peppers, heads of wheat, and ears of corn will essentially become seed morgues. Thus the system will force farmers to buy seeds from seed companies every year... The gradual spread of sterility in seeding plants would result in a global catastrophe that could eventually wipe out higher life forms including humans from the planet", Vandana Shiva, Stolen Harvest.
"Never before has man created an insidiously dangerous, far reaching, and potentially `perfect' plan to control the livelihoods, food supply and even survival of all humans on the planet".
"In one broad, brazen stroke of his hand, man will have irretrievably broken the plant-to-seed-to-plant-to-seed cycle, the cycle that supports most life on the planet. No seed, no food, unless you buy more seed... The terminator technology... has crossed the line, the tenacious line been genius and insanity. It is a dangerous, idea that should be banned. Period."
Monsanto and the USDA have patents that give them monopoly control for 20 years over GE technology. Terminator was developed according to the USDA scientist Melvin Oliver because..." The need was there to come up with a system that allowed you to self-police your technology, other than trying to put on laws and legal barriers to farmers saving seeds and to try and stop foreign interests from stealing the technology. "
Control the energy supply, control the food supply, what next? Control the air supply? This is a dangerous and evil precedent.
