GMO isn't bad. Everything is genetically modified.
Patented foods already exist. Have for years.
Monsanto has corn plants that don't grow at a consistent height if you try to replant the seeds, making them profit by getting you to buy more seeds next year.
We already have seedless plants, bananas.
Just wait until they hear about this one fruit called an "apple".
Like most things, the real problem behind GMO is greed. Creating rice strains that grow in impoverished areas, where little else will grow, is hard to see as a bad thing. We could be, and to some degree are, creating strains to solve world hunger, improve nutrition, improve durability of produce without sacrificing flavor. Tomatoes, I'm looking at you.
But so much of GMO is an effort to dominate the market, instead of to make the market better.
