  • So advertising is somehow evil? What's the point of this video? I don't know where you get the claim that organic is healthier or cheaper. There is not one single study that shows that organic has more nutritional value. Also, organic is usually more expensive. Moreover, organic growing processes typically yield less product so more land, water and pesticides need to be used. If you guys want to be taken seriously at least try to do some research. You have now been owned.

  • @captwasabi Well Captain, let me explain. Advertising is evil in the process that it uses, in which it uses massive psychological manipulation to posit the notion that Coke and Mcdonalds are the logical choices of consumption for daily life. These concepts are meticulously driven into us from multiple angles hundreds of times a day. And there are absolutely studies that show chemically treated and genetically modified foods are not healthy for us. Genetically modifying plants, having certain

  • @captwasabi genes extracted causes plants to create novel proteins that our bodies are not accustomed to digesting, causing all sorts of unknown medical maladies. And if you want to get deeper, the physical damage caused by chemically treated foods can be felt financially in long term health costs. This is non science fiction, Captain Wasabi. And something you obviously didn't consider is that GROWING your own vegetables and fruits and spices is dramatically cheaper and healthier than purchasing

  • @OpusJones them. And yes, although growing organic takes longer and uses more land, the cost/health benefit is incalculable. And pesticides do not NEED to be used, especially if people take an individual interest in growing the bulk of their own seasonal fruits and veggies. So please, Capt Wasabi, spare me the lecture on being taken seriously and research cred., because this kind of knowledge doesn't need a PhD to comprehend. So tell me, who's been owned now?

  • @captwasabi Well, I'm glad you're done, since I can't stand dealing with people who have such angry little hearts. And there are community gardens in Manhattan, where everyone pitches in to help grow fresh produce, check for yourself. Who's the moron now? And sorry Capt. Douchewad, cursing and laying out theoretical questions doesn't constitute an owning, nice try. :-p You might consider actually having something of substance to say next time you comment on someone's video.

  • america and england are both the same both bullys thats true if u look up the past

  • @OpusJones "Organic Food Not Nutritionally Better Than Conventionally-Produced Food, Review Of Literature Shows"-ScienceDaily (July 30, 2009) "Scientist Debunks Myth of Organic Nutritional Superiority"-American Council on Science and Health; July 21, 2008. "Nutritional quality of organic foods: a systematic review"-The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition; July 29,2009. "

    So....uh...yeah....YOU have been owned.

  • @OpusJones Uh, you've been owned. You;ve not made a SINGLE correct claim. In fact, the idea of each person growing their own vegetables and fruits is so laughable it's pathetic. Where are the millions of people living in Hong Kong going to get the land to grow their individual food? Do you ahve any idea how many acres are needed for a single person? What about sub-Saharan Africa where arable land is at a premium. You've used 3 posts to prove you're a clueless moron.

  • @OpusJones There is not one single study that shows the organic, individually grown vegetables are nutritionally superior to conventionally grown vegetables and fruits. Moreover, there ARE mutiple studies that show your claim is wholly inaccurate and that organically grown vegetables have NO incremental nutritional value. As for growing them ourselves, time and resource limitaitons prevent that. How am I supposed to grow vegetables in Queens, NY during the winter?

  • @OpusJones Advertising has nothing to do with logic. It has to do with positioning. Positioning the brand in the forefront of the mind when making a purchase consideration.

  • @captwasabi And remember , unless your obtaining money working for yourself, you are just a tool making some other jackass richer working for them. Just profit to them.

    3. Yes you can unless you live in a closet, Ive done so. Indoors, do research before you say something is laughable. And you can do it on your own cheaply without having to buy fancy hydroponic growers that companies come up with. The laughable thing is people forgot to sustain themselves on their own. Now all you need is paper 

  • @captwasabi Sorry if this is late but,

    1. Hell, why not, you just make other folks richer buying their garbage.

    2. Not really if you live in a concrete jungle. But you can always find some, real estate is fairly cheap away from congested areas. But most people either fear change or just wont commit to living outside their "norm"

    As for time well thats really something you need to deal with. With a little constructive thought you can break away from "time" and the mundane day to day job.
