When Science Is No Longer the Truth
$MON
Our society is built on the idea that science can help us make good, solid decisions. But now we are facing a world rife with problems caused by the very sciences that were supposed to keep us healthy, safe, and productive, it is clear that we are heading toward more than one “brick wall.”
In a sense, the fundamental role of science has been hijacked for selfish gain.
Looking back, we can see that since World War II the preferred business model of an industry was created 1st, followed by scientific evidence that supports the established business model.
When the science does not support the company’s economic gains, it’s swept under the rug, even if people are dying and the planet is becoming irreparably poisoned as a result.
Today we live in a world where chemical companies and biotech giants (NYSE:MON) can easily buy and pay for their own research studies, as well as the lobbying to support whatever legislation they need passed in their favor.
Conflicts of interest abound and have become the norm within virtually all fields of science, which creates a completely unworkable, and dangerous situation in the long run.
The 1st step toward change is awareness that there is a problem, for without knowledge of the past there is no future.
Eat healthy, Be healthy, Live lively.
