Solutions

1. Get rid of all food subsidies: Because of laws, it is cheaper to ship a jar of apples from China than to pick apples from your own trees.

2. Grant citizens Food Freedom of Choice. Monsanto is afraid of competition. Allow the citizens freedom to grow and sell their own food without penalty. By allowing innovation and opportunity for each individual, we can topple Monsanto.

3. No patents on food. You cannot dump garbage in your neighbors yard without penalty yet Monsanto can dump polluted pollen all over the communities and the President says we must pay Monsanto a royalty.
