Another lie that you have accepted without investigation. I know you don't care about being lied to by "your own" but please read the link this time.
They obviously had no trouble getting the "Monsanto Protection Act" passed, something that allows them to keep pumping out their frankenfoods even if they've been suspected as being poisonous and harmful.

if Monsanto has nothing to do with the storage or growing of the seeds, why are they so against them being labeled?

Looking into this now, I am fairly certain they do have everything to do with storage,
and growing the seeds. They even have their own farms, which teenagers have been
killed upon by accidental elctocution working detassling the corn.
See, what we are dealing with here is a multifude of lies that are put forth
in defense of Monsanto, so many of them its like peeling an onion. Every
layer as it comes away and gets closer to the center burns your eyes, and
stings and makes you cry....and you see things you never wanted to know.
Just how evil one company can be in it's pursuit of profits.edit on 4-8-2013 by burntheships because: (no reason given)

And I would be happy to answer that question, and will.
At this point in the thread there has been so much dirt uncovered, I am sorry
to say I can not cater to any one person. I will not compromise my research
and findings by sticking to terms people provide for me, nor the scope
of the research. I could not do it just for one, or two.....see where that might lead.
I hope you can understand this is nothing personal, and has only to do with presenting the truth.

There is a fairly indepth article here on Monsanto's egregious and callous
behavior and the companies negligence in its practice of GMO corn
growing, how the GMO aspect plays into the dangers in this practice,
and how Monsanto wants to make sure it finds a way to reap all of the profits
from GMO, but is very careful to put onto the farmers the liabilities.

What dirt has been uncovered to put an end to this transgenic practice/business?
Or will the production and sales of transgenic GMO seed continue indefinitely?
Is there a compilation of the evidence neatly put together that will put an end to this business?

Maybe its the green revolution and monoculture, combined with dependence on corn that makes the risks of detasseling so much greater?
Ok, found it.
Yes, Monsanto does store its GMO seeds in its own facilites.
I still see no reason why Monsanto would be unable to keep GMO and non-GMO seed separate from one another and then label them accordingly.

Is it normal for them to mix the two together? Like I said, I'm not very well-versed on the subject, I just think a huge corporation writing bills to their own benefit is bad news no matter which way you look at it.
The reasons that Phage cited as to why they dont label, that is all sheer B.S.
