Wasn't the spectacle of watching how famers, who didn't use GMO seeds, ended up having to pay Monsanto licensing fees anyway because the wind blew modified pollen over to the not modified crops and, faster than you can say bend over, whether any farmer wants to use GMO or not, they are sucked into a spirling, corporate usurpation of how they must do everything the Monsanto (or whoever ends up holding the patents) way.
The mind quickly goes numb on the spectacularly insane, runaway scenarios that might occur if we were suddenly thrust into the world of you constantly paying for parts of your own body that might end up being modified whether you desired it or not (and some of these are the sexual modifications that could get you sexually manipulated in ways that even our science fiction writers haven't fully explored yet -- thank god because we really do not need any more destructive fantasies) . And do not for a second thing that this would be far fetched; if for no other reason than whatever the GMO makers can create, others can hack into and do the Gods only know what kind of ultimate mayhem.
Do not allow this to happen. It is folly of the most unimaginably horrible kind.
DEEPLY DISCONCERTING
Should Scientists Be Allowed To Patent Portions Of The Human Genome?
On one hand, patents fuel innovation. On the other hand, they can make those innovations inaccessible to the people who need them the most.
