Prince Charles- Going Against the Green?


Nobody Wins: Prince Charles, that lovable royal that we Americans just love to make fun of, has actually said something that I have to say, makes a lot of sense. He said that the mass development of genetically modified crops might cause the world’s worst environmental disaster.

Finally---a global problem that really is caused by man.

If you judge his statement by the fat content of the average American, I’d say he has point. We are an environmental, blown-up fatty factory getting ready to burst. Sixty-eight per-cent of Americans are overweight. We attract fat like Michael Phelps attracts gold metals. And since most of us have no time to swim five hours a day to wear off the many calories in all our normal food, is it really our fault that two-thirds of us are overweight?

We are considered the fattest people walking the earth, as if we want to be. Lots of experts claim it’s because on every single corner or block, we have “fast food.” Take your pick: Taco Bell, Wendy’s, Jack-In-The-Box, McDonalds, and my personal fat favorite, KFC. How can you resist those biscuits?

Some of us remember a time when grandma’s biscuits were smothered in buckets of gravy and no one gained a pound.

So..what’s up here? Just what kind of “junk” is in our food?
You don’t want to know since our soil was depleted, we are told, years ago. Now if you want minerals---you have to get them from a bottle.

There are many things you can say about the Prince, but there is one thing you can’t deny…he loves his organic gardens. And he knows, better than the rest of us, just what insidious games the “elite” global international food companies have been up to.

The Prince has accused the gigantic GM experimenting with nature all over the world, and says it has gone seriously wrong: relying on “gigantic corporations for food would be the absolute destruction of everything and the classic way of ensuring there is no food in the future.”

He sited India’s ‘Green Revolution’ as one example of this meddling with food disaster. It seems GM did a lot of experimenting with hybrids in India, hybrids which required more water and therefore destroyed the water table, causing drought, and an even bigger problem.

“Let them drink Coke!”

Something tells me, they’re not “saving the world from hunger.” It’s more like, saving the bottom line for patenting as much of mother-nature as we can, and in doing so, pushing Mother Nature’s natural seeds to extinction.

It’s much the same as our Congress mandating, with the help of our President, our corn to be used for fuel. I can’t get a decent ear of corn in my store now, but I shouldn’t complain. This little idiotic law has thrown millions all over the world into starvation.

So, once again…what’s going on?

Did you know that our politicians passed a law allowing them to legally trade on insider information? Have you any idea on the ramifications of this sweet perk? Have you heard any politician anywhere discuss this? Do you wonder like me, how many of our fine politicians own stock in these genetically modified food corporations?

Should Martha Stewart run for Congress?

Think about it---the more fat people, the more sick people, the more pharmaceuticals must be produced to take care of the epidemics of heart, stroke, and diabetes patients--- the more cancer, and sixty-dollar bottles of diet pills…lots of experiments with hybrids which will lead the way to people literally begging for Universal Health Care, where the government can decide whether you live or die, and take all your money before you go!

Absolutely brilliant!

So---whether it’s due to the industries use of growth hormones, (which even gets into our drinking water): the recently discovered virus adenovirus-36, which instructs cells to store fat faster: (oh, you haven’t heard about that one?) Or the dirty secret that the food industry is putting in illegal ingredients that makes a person hungry, and actually makes them addicted to food…it hardly matters anymore does it?

What does matter, and even brings a little hope, is that Prince Charles loves Mother Nature so much, (I’m not sure he’s doing this for “the people”) that he is speaking up about the potential disaster.

Good for him.

I don’t think the earth can hold fat Chinese people too! The earth might tilt, and then we really would have global warming.
I don't want Al Gore to drown now..do you?
