So we're going to compare 400,000 years of food eating history to 10 years of GMO with NO KNOWLEDGE of long term effects.
Your original statement was dumb and kneejerk -- "let's support the corporations" -- as is this one.
“Because today we live in a society in which spurious realities are manufactured by the media, by governments, by big corporations, by religious groups, political groups... So I ask, in my writing, What is real? Because unceasingly we are bombarded with pseudo-realities manufactured by very sophisticated people using very sophisticated electronic mechanisms. I do not distrust their motives; I distrust their power. They have a lot of it. And it is an astonishing power: that of creating whole universes, universes of the mind. I ought to know. I do the same thing.” — Philip K. Dick
