Hungary Throws Out Monsanto AND The IMF
Tuesday, 11 September 2012 08:20
'In the years since, precious little attention has been and is being
devoted to the former eastern bloc countries in the Anglo press. We know
most of the countries are now members of the European Union, but only a
few have been allowed to enter the hallowed grounds of the eurozone.
One thing I did pick up on last year was the news that Hungary's PM
Victor Orbán had thrown chemical, food and seed giant Monsanto out of
the country, going as far as to plow under 1000 acres of land. Now, I
have little patience for Monsanto, infamous for many products ranging
from Agent Orange to Round-Up, nor for its ilk, from DuPont to Sygenta,
all former chemical companies that have at some point decided they could
sell more chemicals than ever before by applying them on and inside
everyone's daily food.
Patenting nature itself seems either unworthy of mankind or its
grandest achievement. I don't care much for either one. So Orbán (who
has a two-thirds majority in parliament, by the way) has my tentative
support on this one.'
