USDA to approve Monsanto's GE Alfaifa?

Vilsack is a hack for Monsanto, Vilsack runs the Ag department, it doesn't matter what we do, BO is best buds with Vilsack - 100 to 1. Monsanto has the whole national and international food chain in hand, even more so with BO working the world. The fix is in and we all voted for the jerk.

When he got rid of Van Jones I began to have my suspicions and if and when BO lets this one happen, I'm totally out of here. I was so pissed off then BO put that fox in the hen house (Vilsack) and if this happens I'm all for dumping BO and letting the corporate interests who are up front about their allegiance take over, the creeps like BO who smile at me and say everything will be OK, just trust me - no way. BO out in 4.

... as you can see, I'm really pissed. This guy is such a woos. He has to really show me some thing to change my mind.

Mind of Knowledge

I’m seventy years old and have been fighting social justice, environmental, political and other categories of issues for fifty years, as I grew older allot of things began to come to order and with that order it became very pronounced that fighting issue after issue without a underlying premise to work from would only dictate the continuous defensive approach to all the issues that I’ve been involved in.

So what to do? What needs to be done? Was there, or is there a simple solution to my frustrated overview of all these issues?

Yes there is and it’s a very simple, yet massive solution – we need a new paradigm.

To get to that new paradigm we need to define what the old paradigm is, or in this case was and I would propose that the old one is what was promoted by Adam Smith so many, many years ago – that paradigm is referred to as ‘the invisible hand’.

In principle it says that what is good for the individual is good for the community.

The problem with that idea is in today’s world economy with the massive numbers of people that now inhabit this earth, the demands those individuals make on the community is overwhelming and because of those individual demands on water, energy, air, plants – the list is long and tangled, the old paradigm of the invisible hand no longer has any relevance to the problems of today.

That being said, I’ll move on to what I think the new paradigm might be.

It replaces the individual with the community and the needs of the community. But the definition of the word community is much broader than just being made up of individuals. Community in this case is defined as the whole, the whole being greater than the sum of its parts, because understanding just the parts does not understand the connections, the starts the stops, the progression of how life develops and how life becomes, lives and dies.

The new paradigm is the continuous learning and understanding of the relationships of the secrets of coexistences between everything in the universe.

One might call it the mind of knowledge.

So I suggest we replace the invisible hand with the mind of knowledge.

This is a collective mind; it’s the mind of all things great and small. There are vast areas of knowledge in everything that exists in the universe. We as humans are put in the position of trying to figure out how it all works. That seems to be the human condition, yet as our condition expands in knowledge it now has become apparent that what we do with that knowledge and information is one, a problem or two, a benefit.

Presently it’s more of a problem than a benefit.

But that problem can be turned into a benefit, by what we all have joined in this thing that is called a wiser earth.

So lets all of us begin to define what the new paradigm is, what is the mind of knowledge?
