what confuses me is not the origin of the arsenic in rice, but why there's more after you process the rice... where does it come from??

Depends on your definition of "process", but parboiled rice can use the same arsenic contaminated groundwater and can raise the arsenic content depending on the process used, whereas mechanical hulling reduces it.
