- ihsw 13y agoI may not be able to speak for anybody else but I find the GMO debate has many parties with multiple (even conflicting) goals. Personally the primary opposition I have with GMO is the very murky patent environment. It's no secret that Monsanto engages in patent warfare and manipulates legal systems across the world to stamp out competition. GMO foods can bring about a revolution to the world because it's an interesting intersection between engineering and biology.

Your beef is with the IP system. It's like saying software sucks because software companies abuse the patent system.
