The Monsanto/Bill Gates Plot: Genetically Engineered Rice Threatens Asian Countries

Trojan horse indeed. Golden gm rice supposedly was invented to help poor people get enough vitamin A. Some time before modern agriculture forced these poor people off their land vitamin A was no problem whatsoever for it is almost omni present in all plants.

That golden rice is a PR stunt can be understood when you know that it will be necessary to eat far more of it than poor people can afford to get enough vitamin A in the diet. They will also suffer the side effects caused by all gm "foods".
