Hi
Friend,
[Anyone familiar with Marjory knows that] I claim 95% of the food sold in grocery stores is toxic to the human body. And I am not backing down on that. It is a huge part of why I am telling you to grow your own!
Yes, the pesticides and herbicides are terrible. But the biggest concern I have is with GMO's (genetically modified organisms). The research proving the dangers of GMOs keeps pouring in despite the massive attempts to cover it up. The rest of the world is paying attention - over 60 countries have banned GMO food from being grown or imported. But here is the US big agri-business has a death grip on the US Gov't. I mean isn't it the job of the FDA and the USDA to make sure the food supply is safe?
75% of the products sold in grocery stores have some form of corn in them, and almost all the corn grown in the US is GMO corn. And then there is GMO soybeans, and even GMO wheat. Since these ingredients are in almost everything, it is difficult to buy something in the grocery store that is non-GMO.
This election cycle there is a David vs. Goliath food fight going on. It is based in California, but if passed will affect everyone in the US. Proposition 37 would require that food products sold in California that contained GMO's would say so on the label.
I know that California has a bad rep for being a 'nanny state' and they certainly do come up with some crazy ideas over there sometimes. But in this case I agree; you should know what is in the food you are buying. The label should tell you if there are GMO's inside.
I've been looking for a good, concise, well crafted source of information on the whole GMO issue. Dan, a regular subscriber, sent me over this YouTube link which is an excellent video exposing the problems with GMO's and why there is such pressure to keep you from knowing about this.
Watch this video - especially
- If you've been trying to lose weight and can't
- If you are having problems with your organs malfunctioning, diseased, or cancerous (your heart, kidneys, liver, colon, stomach, etc.)
- If you are having infertility problems, or if you want to have grandchildren, then pay special attention to the very end of the video.

If you are in California, why not mess with the system a little bit and vote "Yes" on prop 37? But don't wait for laws or Gov't toget you healthy food - start growing your own.

Important -Proposition 37 - Deception and Lies
Contributed by Feline Butcher
Hi Everyone,
It is time for a rebuttal and please feel free to share this info!
I
know we have been really harping on Prop 37, but I really appreciate
your support and understanding about how vitally important this
initiative is. Monsanto and DuPont are pouring millions into counter
ads and promotion in these vital few days before the elections to
intentionally confuse and deceive voters.
I
know that all of you reading this are firmly behind our efforts and are
prepared to protect your right to know what ingredients are in the food
you and your family eat, but we need your help and support to reach out
to those other people you know who may be on the fence on this issue.
Because there has been so much counter propaganda thrown about, it can
be difficult to have a reasonable and logical discussion with people who
are basing their thinking on false information and skewed logic. That
is why I want to provide you with some information that highlights many
of the arguments that the GMO industry is promoting and our specific
responses so that you can
understand the issue well enough to spread the message confidently.
Let's get right to it.
Increased Food Prices and Raised Taxes.
Many
ads and corporate mouth-pieces are claiming that because Prop 37 will
add new, and potentially burdensome regulations to an already complex
industry, that these regulations will have unintended consequences that
will cause massive food price increases. Some of the factors they list
include: increased food production costs, the inability to import many
cheap sources of food from out of state, increased legal costs arising
from frivolous lawsuits,
etc.
These
types of statements are part of a marketing technique known as FUD,
which is an acronym that stands for Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt. If you
want to persuade somebody not to do something, you must create these
emotions. The way to defeat FUD, is to employ the truth. In regards to
increased food prices, the truth is that food prices are not going to
increase as a result of this measure. They may increase due to increased
fuel costs, droughts in the mid-west, and other phenomenon, but the
costs associated with food retailers verifying with their suppliers
whether their ingredients contain GMO sources or not, and altering their
packaging accordingly will not affect food prices. The real fear with
this measure is being felt by food producers because their biggest
concern is that if customers see a package that has "contains
GMO ingredients" printed on it, they might not choose their product.
This would cost THEM money, but not you.
Affecting Farmers and Cost Jobs
Opponents
claim that this proposition would mean that farmers in California would
be at a disadvantage with farmers in other states because they would
not be able to sell competitive goods and that this would put farmers
and agricultural workers out of business. The truth is that nothing in
this proposition prohibits a farmer from producing or selling GMO crops.
It does not prohibit them from exporting them out of the state or out
of the country. In fact it doesn't prevent farmers from doing anything
that they already do. It only requires that RETAILERS and PACKAGED
FOODS label their products which contain GMO ingredients, or have been
grown from GMO seed. This idea that the entire agricultural economy of
California is going to collapse from a LABELING LAW is plain falsehood.
Frivolous Lawsuits
Opponents
claim that there is a provision in Prop 37 that will allow people to
bring frivolous lawsuits against farmers and food producers by making
false claims that their products contain GMO. That such lawsuits would
be costly and that these costs would be passed onto the consumers. Under
current labeling laws, if a food producer omits an ingredient on their
label, and it happens to be something that someone is allergic to, they
could file a lawsuit for damages to their health. There are both civil
and criminal penalties for misbranding, false advertisement, etc. Prop
37 simply creates a new
category of adulterant, GMO. As with any new law, there must be
consequences for violation. They must not be too lenient, but not
overbearing either. They must fit the crime committed. Private
individuals are the most effective community watchdogs in existence, and
unless they can be empowered to ensure that companies stay within the
bounds of the law, compliance to the provisions of Prop 37 will not
occur. If a factory contaminates the groundwater supply of a community,
the factory's owner should be held accountable, if the community
develops health problems. If a food producer attempts to hide the fact
that they use GMO ingredients and it causes health problems for their
consumers, they also must be held accountable. This is part of common
law and common sense, if you hurt an innocent person, amends must be
made, and justice must be served.
Likewise,
these companies also have ways that they can correct themselves if a
mistake has been made. Prop 37 allows companies a grace period to
correct the label, to obtain a sworn statement from their suppliers that
they do not use GMO ingredients, etc. Then the false accuser will have
no grounds for a case. The burden of proof of wrongdoing rests heavily
on the accuser. If they cannot provide hard evidence like laboratory
analysis results, then their case will not proceed very far. Don't
forget that this law will not go into affect until 2014 and that
producers have a year to figure out how to become compliant with the law
and get their legal affairs in order.
Arbitrary Exemptions
Of
all the arguments put forth by the opposition, this area is the one in
which the most ridicule and deception occur. One of the most promoted
anti-Prop 37 ads being promoted is the one where Dr. Herny Miller, a
former FDA employee, gives examples of "arbitrary exemptions" in Prop 37
and summarizes that this new labeling law "makes no sense". The ad uses
a simple cartoon to compare products that are required to be labeled if
they contain GMO ingredients and those that are not. Let's go over
these examples and see if they truly are nonsensical or if this is just
an attempt to confuse and mislead the public. The first example is soy
milk vs cow's milk. Soy milk must be labeled, cow's milk doesn't. Why?
First
of all, the text of Prop 37 makes no specific reference to milk
products. Soy is a SEED crop. GMO soy
beans are among the most common GMO crop on the planet. Cow's milk
comes from a COW. The livestock industry has done some pretty terrible
things to cows, but they have yet to create a "GMO" cow. As such, if Soy
Milk comes from GMO Soy it must be labeled.
Juice vs Alcohol
This
one may at first seem bizarre, but then you should probably realize
that people don't drink alcoholic beverages for the health benefits.
Prop 37 does allow an exemption for alcoholic beverages. My theory is
that this was somewhat political. You are already going to try and pass a
measure that will infuriate one of the largest and richest
multinational corporations in the world, do you really want to make an
enemy of the Beer and Wine
industry as well? Probably not.
Bread vs Cheese
This
is effectively the same scenario as soy vs cow milk. Bread is made from
grains, which are seed crops which can be GMO. Cheese is from dairy
which is NOT GMO. This is blatant deception intended to confuse voters. A
clear example of Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt.
Dog food vs Meat consumption by humans
This
may also seem bizarre at first glance. Prop 37 makes no specific
reference to animal versus human food.
The
No on Prop 37 ad shows a dog food can, and a T-bone steak. This is the
major deception. Any dog owner who reads the ingredient labels on their
dog food packages will know that most dog foods contain GRAINS,
including but not limited to soy, corn, wheat, barley, and rice. The No
on Prop 37 ad has Dr. Miller saying "why meat in dog food should be
covered, but meat for human consumption is not, makes no sense..." This
is a very clever lie. MEAT is not covered at all under Prop 37. There is
no such thing as GMO meat. Does not exist. The GRAINS in dog food,
however, are covered and because so many animal food products do contain
GMO ingredients means that health conscious pet owners will be able to
know which dog food brands use GMO ingredients.
This
ad, specifically, is a very clear example of the FUD campaign that the
wealthy corporate
interests are running on the voters of California. They are using
deceptive language and relying upon voter's ignorance of the topic in
order to generate fear, uncertainty, and doubt in order to remain hidden
behind this loophole that allows them to use potentially toxic
ingredients in their foods without our knowledge or consent.
We have the Right to Know, and it is time that we exercised that right by voting Yes on Prop 37.

The Missing Piece of the Rawesome Puzzle
Rawesome selling commercial eggs and chickens meant more to Aajonus than it would to a casual observer.
Why would he act so strongly upon private investigator and other confirming reports of commercial eggs and chicken sales?
See http://www.wewant2live.com/why-is-aajonus-so-concerned-about-toxicity-in-commercial-chickens-and-eggs/
