I agree.
NOTHING Monsanto makes is natural.
I wouldn't trust it. I won't let the stuff on my property.

We won't have it on our property neither. Nasty stuff it is. The county came by spraying Round up around all the signs and bridges and around power poles, etc. They wanted to spray around our mailbox and I stopped them and said "NO WAY" !! I use white vinigar around the mail box .

Especially since everything I've read about Monsanto wanting to control the whole seed population. And what they did to Percy Schmeiser was deplorable. All the roundup-ready corn and soybean is tainting all of the heirloom seeds out there. Some day soon we won't be able to grow our own and save the seed. Monsanto will own it all. We should boycott all Monsanto products including Roundup and Miracle grow.

I no longer buy Monsanto and haven't for quite some time. They are mega bullies.

Mega Bullies.
That's a good word.
I can think of a few companies (and governments) I can use that term for.
