Farmageddon

On the one hand, we are constantly being told that "corporations" need to be regulated because they are inherently evil. We don't have regulations, it is claimed, because there is a conspiracy. Yet when regulations are in place, folk complain just the same. Regulations are not for me! They are for them! So it must be a conspiracy too, apparently. And, of course, it is also masterminded by evil corporations. So, what's the common thread. It is all part of a conspiracy, no matter what. Indeed. So is this very website, the internet itself, and, of course, the planet we inhabit. All of it can be easily explained as a conspiracy. There. I "conspired" to saved you the time to watch this documentary.

If you care about your health and what you eat, you should watch this documentary. Food awareness is becoming a 'high agenda' item and irrespective of yet another travesty of corporate greed and how governments do their bidding in return for lobbyist payments, while it demonstrates how populations literally swallow any rubbish thrown at them. One thing that shines through this offering is the sincerity and the conviction that the growers and consumers clearly have in the excellent products that have clear health benefits. The production of the film is as raw as the milk it examines but this does not hide the inalienable right for growers and consumers to engage in a 1-2-1 contract that is being undermined in a way that yet again show the state taking a sledgehammer to crack a nut. I don't know how many more examples of oppression we have to witness before people actually become motivated to act? As a non US resident I have to wonder why Ron Paul does not garner more support?
