http://www.ibtimes.com/monsanto-protection-act-5-terrifying-things-know-about-hr-933-provision-1156079 While we busy watching SCOTUS and the marriage issue the President quietly signed a piece of legislation that will have far reaching repercussions. Mind you, I'm not with the doom and gloom crowd when it comes to GMOs, they may not be all bad. But Monsanto has a horrible reputation and business practices and I can easily see a day when nothing but Monsanto seed is available. That will not be good.
