Monsanto's dream bill, HR 875 HR 875 is a Monsanto driven bill introduced by Rosa DeLauro whose husband works for Monsanto. Michael Taylor, a Monsanto lawyer, waits in the wings to take control our food again, but this time it would be with frightening power over our farmers, our only protectors of our food. This article contains quotes to give only a small idea of what is at stake in stopping HR 875, a dream bill for Monsanto.

It gives no specifics to back up its "facts," so the following close up view of the bill and accompanying commentary offers the reader a chance to decide for themselves what is myth and what is fact.

During a world food crisis, Monsanto just raised the price of its corn seed $100 a bag. "A $100 price increase is a tremendous drain on rural America," said Fred Stokes, OCM's executive director. "Let's say a farmer in Iowa who farms 1,000 acres plants one of these expensive corn varieties next year. The gross increased cost is more than $40,000. Yet there's no scientific basis to justify this price hike. How can we let companies get away with this?" continued Stokes.
