Monsanto Funded Anti-GMO Labeling Campaign Gets Away with Impersonating Govt. Agencies
Anthony Gucciardi
Activist PostMisuse of a United States government seal can lead to a $250,000 fine,
twenty years in prison, and three years of supervised release — unless
you’re a campaign organization funded by major corporations like
Monsanto. In a move completely ignored by the mainstream media (many of
which have financial ties to such corporations), the anti-GMO labeling
No on 37 Committee paid for and disseminated a physical
piece of direct mail that not only
entirely misused the FDA logo but even sported a fabricated quote.A quote that
even the FDA has stated on record that was never stated. That is because it would actually be illegal to do so. You see, federal
agencies cannot take a stance on Proposition 37, which means that the
Monsanto-funded "No" on 37 campaign literally
created the quote and FDA support out of thin air. In other words, the organization leaders blatantly violated 8 U.S.C. §§
506 and
1017 by misusing the FDA seal and writing a quote out of thin air to support
their political campaign to keep Monsanto rolling in the billions.
So are the creators of this deceptive campaign piece going to jail or facing major fines for breaking the law?
You would think so, especially given that the offense is actually a
felony. As it turns out, however, No on 37 may actually
get away without any real penalty.
And even if they are on the receiving end of any repercussions, it will
certainly be after the voting takes place on Prop 37 (November 6th).
Ultimately, this means that Monsanto and "No" on Prop 37 will completely
get away with their impersonation of a federal government agency
without a scratch.
And most of the voters won’t know a thing.
Citizens Thrown Into Jail, Fined for Govt. Impersonation while No on 37 Gets AwayOnce again, major corporations are exempt from the laws that heavily
apply to the average citizen. One Idaho woman found out in 2011 that
misuse of government seals really can land you in jail when you don’t
have billions of dollars. Found to be illegally using a phony government
seal (sound familiar?), one Caldwell, Idaho woman
now faces up to 20 years in prison, a $250,000 fine, and three years of supervised release — the sentence that applies to the average citizen.
Perhaps this is related to the fact that
Monsanto owns most if not all United States diplomats.
Or perhaps it has to do with the fact that the United States government
is so in bed with Monsanto that it has threatened ‘military-style’
trade wars who do not accept Monsanto’s GMOs (see previous link).
But you won’t see this in the mainstream media, or even some
‘alternative’ media outlets that receives millions in funding from the
same corporations that fight against GMO labeling. And that is why No on
37 is currently climbing in the polls. With pure deception, lies, and
confusion, No on 37 is getting away with the very same actions that land
the average citizen in jail.
