MILLIONS AGAINST MONSANTO:

Why are companies like Monsanto allowed to profit from their control of the food supply while the rest of us have to struggle for affordable, healthy food?

Companies like Monsanto have enormous economic and political power. Their campaign contributions determine the outcome of elections. Their lobbyists write our laws. In the words of an Official Statement of the Occupy Wall St. Movement:

? ?They have poisoned the food supply through negligence, and undermined the farming system

through monopolization.?

? ?They have profited off of the torture, confinement, and cruel treatment of countless animals, and actively hide these practices.?

? ?They have continuously sought to strip employees of the right to negotiate for better pay and safer working conditions.?

? ?They have deliberately declined to recall faulty products endangering lives in pursuit of profit.?

? ?They have donated large sums of money to politicians, who are responsible for regulating them.?

As workers, consumers and voters, we have very little influence. It?s time to turn this around!

As the Occupy Wall St. call to action put it, the task is ?ending the influence money has over our representatives in Washington. It?s time for Democracy Not Corporatocracy, we?re doomed without it.? We support Occupy Wall St. and the Occupy Together movement because: When we get money out of politics, we?ll get Monsanto out of agriculture!

? When corporations can?t buy politicians, stores won?t sell government-subsidized junk food.

? When health matters more than the bottom line, our food won?t be laced with Monsanto?s allergens, toxins and carcinogens.

? When sustainability trumps profits, we?ll replace polluting factory farms with

Carbon-sequestering, green organic farms.

? When justice is more important than stock prices, farm workers and family farmers will all make a good living.
