Wal-Mart cares....I am sure of it!

http://www.care2.com/greenliving/wal-mart-to-sell-monsanto-gmo-corn-this-summer.html


                Here is a link to some info we all need to be aware of. No surprise Wal-Mart will be selling GMO’s and completely expected. I am posting this article number one because people need to be informed on every level. Number two to get you thinking!

                If you don’t understand what this GMO corn is, the simple break down is the pesticide is genetically part of the food. You can’t avoid it and the effects on your body are completely unknown. We know pesticides cause many serious problems but now it's in the form of DNA, not just a crop dusting. It is known what It does to insects which is destroying them from the inside out, but to people is a mystery so far. Although I am sure the affects will be known in time. I suppose we could assume we are above the laws of nature and we are immune to any destruction from the inside out intent behind the GMOs but that is a pretty risky way to think.

                Interesting thing to me is Wal-Mart started selling Autism Speaks office and school supplies just a short time ago. Much of the proceeds go towards research and I am sure much of those proceeds go into a fat cats pocket or they wouldn’t have agreed to do it. Some people seemed excited to see autism awareness products for sale on the shelves and some weren’t so sure it was a positive thing in regard to autism. Popular opinion seemed to be many people were glad Wal-Mart was stepping in to raise awareness but is that really what they were aiming for? My personal opinion is no because anything they place on the shelves has to have a profit involved and a large profit.

                This is what I want you to think about. We all know there is no direct cause or answer to autism and if your mind works anything like mine you have decided with all of the info being thrown around there is many causes. Including the simple fact it is genetic and that’s the way it goes. So why on earth would a large corporation who appears to care about the cause of autism awareness also decide to sell genetically modified food knowing the affects are unknown? The answer is simple….they don’t care. They could even sell the product and take it upon themselves to label it but why would they sabotage their own sales by making sure everyone is aware. Wal-Mart also is known to sell cancer awareness products but there is a large profit margin on that to.

                Before you get thrilled about awareness products or think GMO’s wouldn’t be sold if they were unsafe, think at the level of why it’s being sold to us. The big picture is they don’t care about autism, cancer or what GMO’s will do to us because we are all numbers and profit to them.  The bottom line is YOU are profit unless you chose not to be. You and your children are people who deserve to be treated accordingly. Don’t settle for anything less or less is exactly what you will get.
