How Libertarians Can End Monsanto's Monopoly! (With Joel Salatin)
A non-Monsanto farm next to a farm using Monsanto seeds ends up owing Monsanto a lot of money due to the wind. If that's not a monopoly, I don't know what is! Look into India's farming industry, there's a lot of examples @everittdmickey

Sad that grown adults have yet to figure out the game is rigged!
Are you still in denial of Trump's mass expansion of military spending @everittdmickey? Or are you still "fantasizing"

I fully support your right to think spending half of the State's tax revenue on military is good @everittdmickey (even if it already spends more then the next 9 highest Nations combined).
It is well in your rights to be a warmonger and cheer for a NEOCON but what is most comical is how Trump wants to censor the internet, plus get rid of internet privacy, while presenting a tax plan that gives the wealthiest the biggest breaks, on top of all the Goldman Sachs appointees he has!
It's your right to cheer for the 0.1% but I got to ask, who do you think profits from U.S. military actions? Because it isn't the common man!

Agreed, but Monsanto has dominance perpetrated by the state in the first place. This can be easily construed and rightly so as a monopoly considering their patent rights over seeds and the incentive farmers have to use their seeds, pesticides and herbicides.
Other companies may produce seeds, but compared to those companies, Monsanto is about 50 thousand times bigger than their second place competitor. This is a big deal and would not exist if the regulations, taxes and subsidization wasn't in place. That's the point being made.
