UPDATES: The H.R.2749 - Food Safety Enhancement Act was passed on 7/30/09. Is it anything like the H.R. 875 bill? Find out what is means for organic farmers and you and me!

I received this in an email and was astonished to hear this. I have no idea if it is true but the bill does exist and if it ismore than what it reads on the surface then WOW!

US House and Senate are about (in a week and a half) to vote on bill

that will OUTLAW ORGANIC FARMING (bill HR 875). There is an enormous rush to get this into law within the next 2 weeks before people realize what is happening.

Main backer and lobbyist is Monsanto - chemical and genetic engineering
giant corporation (and Cargill, ADM, and about 35 other related
agri-giants). This bill will require organic farms to use specific
fertilizers and poisonous insect sprays dictated by a newly formed
agency to "make sure there is no danger to the public food supply". This
will include backyard gardens that grow food only for a family and not
for sales.

If this passes then NO more heirloom clean seeds but only Monsanto
genetically altered seeds that are now showing up with unexpected
diseases in humans.

Here's a link that gives you an idea how this can be happening:

Magic Johnson, named one of the 50 greatest players in NBA history, has been living with HIV since 1991. Recently we've been seeing a lot of him in the media and noticed how healthy he looks. This caused us to ponder...wondering how close are scientist to finding a cure for HIV/Aids? Or how close are they to finding something that allowed people with HIV/Aids to live as long as those without it?

So, we did a little research into HIV/AIDS to truly try to understand it all. Some people seem to think there is a cure for it but it will never be released to the general public while others believe there is no cure for such a virus and those who are infected with it have to live with it forever. Either way we thought well how long can a person with HIV/Aids expect to live? How long do they have just in case there was a cure to be released or discovered? Here is a something we found on Wikipedia that peaked our interest...

"Eventually most HIV-infected individuals develop AIDS (Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome). These individuals mostly die from opportunistic infections or malignancies associated with the progressive failure of the immune system.[7] Without treatment, about 9 out of every 10 persons with HIV will progress to AIDS after 10-15 years. Many progress much sooner.[8] Treatment with anti-retrovirals increases the life expectancy of people infected with HIV. Even after HIV has progressed to diagnosable AIDS, the average survival time with antiretroviral therapy (as of 2005) is estimated to be more than 5 years.[9] Without antiretroviral therapy, death normally occurs within a year.[10] It is hoped that current and future treatments may allow HIV-infected individuals to achieve a life expectancy approaching that of the general public."
