Financial rewards factor into delicate equations, often compromising the search for truth, providing illusion and delusion. In rushing their genetically engineered bovine growth hormone through the approval process, Monsanto compromised the health and safety of all those who would eat cheese or ice cream or milk taken from cows treated with this new poison. Monsanto created a new amino acid when they genetically engineered the bovine growth hormone. This amino acid was a freak of nature, and was an unanticipated error. Taylor wrote the laws which did not require a product to have a label informing Americans that they were eating genetically engineered foods.
Scientists have big egos.
They leave paper trails. In that paper, Violand admitted that genetic engineering was not a perfect technology. He admitted that science does make mistakes. Freak was his word. Mother nature was unforgiving.
