Monsanto’s GMO Crops Ravage US, USDA Ignores Dangers | The Liberty Beacon

Monsanto’s genetically modified corn, which has been hailed as the answer to  many farmers’ prayers, has actually been creating resistant superbugs for years.  The genetically modified crop known as Bt corn has been altered to produce its own toxin, a pesticide called Bacillus  thuringiensis which was implemented into the crop to kill off rootworms before  they have a chance to ruin the crop. However the truth of the matter is that  this hybrid crop, taking up 65 percent of all U.S. corn  production, has been shown to cause a resistance in rootworm beetles,  rendering the crop useless.

So then why is the United States allowing Monsanto to ramp up the usage of  this environment-wrecking crop?
