    Sorry about that - I was rather tired. The total number of new cancers in 2018 was 1,735,350, thus 1% would be 17,353.5. Still not 2.

    For the purpose of developing stats on childhood cancer, they use from infancy to 19 years old.

    Yes. Do you see how small a number we are speaking of? If your belief is true that Monsanto is poisoning all of us shouldn't we see an order of magnitude more cancer?
    Call your state legislators and insist they approve the Article V convention of States to propose amendments.

    My issue with Monsanto is both the lying and their behavior with farmers vis-a-vis GMO invasion of non customer crops. They are a very predatory company. Furthermore disease and death is prevented one person at a time. You don't have to wait until half the population is riddled with cancer to address toxicology.

    Sure. Only the evil corporation is not evil.

    All, It's rather interesting isn't it. That Gov't in this country is outlawing private citizens from making sandwiches to feed the homeless. Our Gov't is making it so that only they can show charity. Really you liberal progressive dipsticks?

    How many of those roughly 17,000 cases can be directly linked to Monsanto?

    None of them. No direct links have been found. Lawyers found someone with deep pockets. In a case where scientific understanding is essential I suspect not one of the jurists was scientifically competent.
