Monsanto accused of hiring army of trolls to silence online dissent – court papers
I know - what a shock! lol

"Biotech giant Monsanto is being accused of hiring, through third parties, an army of Internet trolls to counter negative comments, while citing positive “ghost-written” pseudo-scientific reports which downplay the potential risks of their products.

The documents emerged during pre-trials on 50 lawsuits against Monsanto which were pending in the US District Court in San Francisco. The plaintiffs allege that exposure to the biotech giant’s flagship product, the herbicide Roundup, caused them or their relatives to develop non-Hodgkin lymphoma, while Monsanto concealed the potential risks.

In March, a judge ruled, despite Monsanto’s objections, that the documents obtained by the plaintiffs could be released. The court papers are being gathered at the website of food-safety whistleblower organization US Right to Know.

The plaintiffs alleged that Monsanto targeted all online materials and even social media comments that indicate potential dangers of its products, according to one document released late in April."

Of course they do. It's part of the control paradigm.

And so do the vaccine companies. Paid by the post on social media combating anti-vaxxers, who are not paid by anyone.

Yeah, we need to cut them down to size.

There was no good reason to define them as person's with all the rights of persons.

They don't have a right to free speech, or a right to bear arms, etc.

It may be necessary to have big businesses to build things like airplanes, etc., but they don't have to be corporations.

A better model for big businesses would be one which divides the ownership and profits among the employees.

A think a three tiered structure of stock ownership would be about right: every employee gets shares of stock commensurate with his or her job. The upper management gets 3 shares each, middle management gets two shares each, and the rest get one share each. Profits are equally divided and go to each share as the only form of pay, disbursed weekly. Everyone in the company gets a vote per share on the running of the company. It would be easy for the common employees to fire incompetent management, and when their profits cut into their lifestyle, they would be quick to do it.

When employees are laid off, their shares would disappear. When more employees are hired, more shares would be created. Everyone in the company would be interested in keeping the shares limited, especially at management levels, which would dig more heavily into shares of profits.

Everyone in the company would want the company to be efficient and profitable.

It could be done with a simple rule change, without changing any company very much. That is, even large corporations like McDonald's and Wells Fargo could continue to function as they currently do, but people would soon find out which companies are actually profitable and efficient, and which employees aren't worth their salt. There would be massive savings right away as most of the management would take enormous pay cuts, from millions in compensation to only three times the share of profits that the common worker receives.

Do it with every corporation, and there won't be anywhere that most managers could go to receive the kind of compensation they need to maintain their boats, planes, mansions, and thousand dollar pizzas.

Yet, how greedy does a man have to be to be unhappy earning three times as much as most people, and thirty percent more than most other rich people?

I would be very content to earn so much.

And big business would work for everyone.

I have read about Monsatan and they have a long history of horrible products and exploitative business practice.

Anyone heard of Agent Orange?

.........that was one of their helpful products.

Then there was selling dud seeds to Indian farmers, not red Indians, that seeds were infertile and did not grow.

This bankrupted the farmers as they had borrowed money to get these "marvellous" seeds.

I read this info back in the past...


....now they are going to combine with Bayer who also have a chequered history....

I've seen this first hand. I was reading the comments on a news site that wrote an article about the dangers of aspartame. Sure enough, every other comment, all different posters, of course, kept saying that its not true because they've been drinking aspertame for decades and they're in perfect health and how this researcher is a "quack", etc.
