I've been extremely vocal about Monsanto and their poisons for as long as I can remember. They're right at the top of the most vile corporations on the planet.

Monsanto has a huge lobbying influence with both parties.   

Don't under estimate what they can get approved.

Ditto guys (that should surprise the hell out of you, Baldo)
Lesa lived in West Tenn. and I was there a couple years ago when they sprayed their defoliant on the cotton. Smell was stronger than styrene glue but somewhat similar.
Sixth sense told me that stuff is anything but good for you.
Lesa swears that since Monsanto has taken over the chemicals that more and more folks are getting cancer and at a faster pace.
I agree that Monsanto has too much leverage in Washington no matter who is in charge there.

Monsanto doesn't care who they kill. Left or right makes no difference.

Been a day or three but didn't monsanto manufacture agent orange? No matter who manufactured agent orange THAT particular legal deal still draggin on as I understand it. Me thinks they waitin for all Nam Vets involved to just die off.  Cry  Didn't big tobacco have a huge lobby in deception central also? Thinkin if you do in FACT manufacture a Proven poison and git a big nuff political lobby you can then-with approval-poison at will to your wallets happiness.  Evil RIDE SAFE.

They are in the process of taking over our-U S of A-entire food production with "stuff" they believe is good for humans!  uglystupid2 Makes a body wunder Where the food comes from they eat? And rather Large questions persist about WHAT zackly is killing our honey bees. GOD had all this figured out Long Before any chemical companies showed up. Some one told me a Long time ago if you can't pronounce it you do not want it in your body. RIDE SAFE.

dicamba is the lethal ingredient to kill weeds in weed killer for grass.  Works well on grass to kill weeds, but would not want it sprayed or anywhere sprayed next to growing foods in the dirt that I would eat.

there has to be better, less toxic/lethal chemicals to spray on EDIBLE food grown in our soil, right????
