there are lots of articles sying GMO can be harmful
truth is we need long term studies
and its not just what GMO does directly
its also what indirect consequences.
We may just create some superbug that eats everything, reproduces en-masse
and is almost impossible to kill.

http://www.gmoinside.org/another-strike-gmos-creation-superbugs-superweeds/I would agree with the OP.
The main problem is no regulations on large companies.
and if they do something wrong, they might get a small fine.
But even when used responsibly, like with papaya in Hawaii
Yes, it can be argued it helped save an industry while resistant varieties were developed
but, now its everywhere, even though they tried to control it.
and whats the future path ?
large scale monocultures are already destroying soils and making water toxic
giving us substandard food with no minerals.
1 pest can come in and multiply by the millions, seeing thousands of acres of food.
We need a better answer.
Permaculture, small scale farming, buying food at farmers markets
and growing a percent of your own should be part of the answer.
less chemicals, less water use less toxins, healthier food.
yeah theres a lot of politics in GMO
its coming from large corps that feel threatened.
and they have the $ to fight back
so excuse me if i dont cry for them.
