Everything is GMO to a degree, and without GMO people starve as long as we all live in cities. So start a farm with a group of like minded people, or be dependent on corporate farms

I understand everything is GMO to a degree, and I am honestly not sure of how the "non-GMO" label works. The question them becomes is the GMO from a patented modification or a non-patented modification?

I am not against GMOs from a biological perspective, I agree they are necessary. The question is should one take a stand against patented GMOs.
