    This is a great article for why you should be suspect of any organization that asks you to work to serve others, while making a pretty good profit off your labor, and then refuses to pay its workers. It doesn't matter if you're a business, a prisoner, a disabled person, a religious worker, or a game-player. It violates fair labor laws.

Rising food prices may start with seeds - latimes.com - 2 views

seed price inflation

shared by Claire Moylan on 12 Mar 10 - Cached
  • A decade ago, salesmen from as many as 50 seed companies would compete for their dollars. Each would promise healthier plants, richer yields or a better discount. Today the Leakes have little choice: There are four seed companies in their area, and all sell seeds that include genetic traits patented and licensed by Monsanto Co., the world's largest seed firm.
  • The concerns of farmers such as Leake will take center stage in Ankeny, Iowa, on Friday as the Justice Department and U.S. Department of Agriculture kick off the first of a yearlong series of public meetings to examine whether antitrust practices in agriculture are driving food prices higher.
  • The government is also trying to ferret out reasons for the sometimes vast gaps between what farmers are paid for producing food and the prices shoppers pay at the grocery store.
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • Many experts believe that rising food prices start with seeds.
  • Yet over the last decade, the number of independent seed companies in the U.S. has shrunk to fewer than 100 from more than 300, said Bill Wenzel, national director of the nonprofit Farmer to Farmer Campaign on Genetic Engineering, a network of 34 farm groups.
  • Today, four companies account for 50% of the world's proprietary seeds for major crops. The leader is Monsanto Co., whose marketing practices the Justice Department is investigating.

  • Rabbits have a much smaller carbon footprint than other animals because they convert calories into pounds more efficiently. According to Slow Food USA, “Rabbit can produce six pounds of meat on the same amount of feed and water it takes a cow to produce just one pound.”

    Listen carefully. What is good? What is evil? If you feed someone and disempower them and they become dependent on you for their next meal is feeding that person good? Or is it evil? What is the good side of food security, sustainable energy, clean water access etc? Is there a separate category not included in Evoke? Should they have included the issue of self-government and self-empowerment?
