  • There was also no evidence for years that smoking caused cancer. If big companies who have no system of guilt or conscience are in the game, human lives are discarded for the profit "bottom line". It's the way they set up the economy. It's not for you or me to live happy lives, it's so certain shareholders can have a larger number on a bank ledger.

    Organic isn't just about you, it's about clean drinking water, farm worker rights, and healthy ecosystems, of which humans forget we are a part of.
