www.good.isThe United States is the number one per capita consumer of corn in the world. Don’t recall stuffing your face with thousands of ears of corn last year? As expounded in "The Omnivore’s Dilemma," "King Corn," and "Super Size Me," high fructose corn syrup and other derivatives work their way into everything from Wonder Bread to Big Macs. Add to that corn grown for ethanol production, and you’re looking at one corn-obsessed culture.
Monsanto is fucking up the worlds local farmers, and poisoning plants so small children almost dies from the bi-effects of just getting in contact with the plants from walking around in their farms

Corn star starting to fade? Doubtful. Most Americans are blind and deaf, and they don't care. Now, if you took away their cheap food and television (soon to happen June 12 for the poor), they will care about that. But will it motivate them to find the truth? Doubtful.

Ironically, I'm drinking Bourbon (51+% Corn by law) while watching this...

Corn, and various other foods, from the U.S. is genetically modified to withstand the pesticides they are regularly sprayed with. Some plants are even given a modified gene to have them produce their own pesticide. This pesticide goes inside you, that is why the EU and many other countries ban American products. Hormones and antibiotics injected into cows and chickens have also been shown to cause cancer.Growing your own organic vegetables is the only way you can keep yourself healthy.

The rats are jumping ship.CHEMRISK - a research company hired by the Corn Refiners has recently taken down it's YouTube page.The removal was in response to negative public perception resulting from the high-fructose corn syrup ad campaign. Apparently it has become a liability to defend the sweetener.See the last remaining ChemRisk video at CornRefinersAssoc on YouTube.

great vids but too sensationalist, don't mean to be condescending but as a economics grad student it occurs to me an enormous amount of your facts are out of context in virtually every video ive seen from you guys btw check the commodity prices of corn from 2007 to 2009 and compare to what the video predicts...
