Monsanto gave us Agent Orange, Aspartame and Cancer Causing
Additives in our Food Supply -Monsanto is synonymous with reckless deadly
business practices in America, and now their man has secured a position in the
FDA, again.
(MYRTLE BEACH, S.C.) - A 2010 article published by Veterans
Today titled, Former Former Monsanto Exec. Appointed to the Head of the
F.D.A.!, announced that Michael R. Taylor, was appointed Deputy Commissioner
for Foods at the FDA.
Monsanto's SE Asia handiwork
Taylor is a former top executive (VP Public Policy), attorney and lobbyist with
Monsanto and has had prior positions with law firms, the USDA and the FDA.
Veterans Today wrote in the article about Taylor, "During his former stint
in the FDA during the Clinton administration, he helped write the rules to
allow rBGH (Bovine Growth Hormone) into the American food system and our
children’s milk. Which is perhaps why the FDA staffer who wrote Taylor’s bio
seems to have all-but-forgotten his decade-plus of Monsanto work.
Michael Taylor and Monsanto are responsible for subjecting this country and
many others to the increased risk of breast cancer (7 times greater risk),
prostate cancer and colon cancer because of what they did to milk, cheese,
yogurt, ice cream with rBGH as well as to all the foods that rely on milk
solids and other parts of milk.
He left the FDA in 1994 and a few years later became Monsanto’s Vice President
in charge of lobbying in Washington. As a lobbyist, Taylor argued AGAINST the
Delaney Clause, one of the foundations of food safety regulation that prohibits
cancer-causing chemicals to be added to food."
In 1995, Monsanto ranked 5th among US corporations in the EPA's Toxic Release
Inventory, having discharged 37 million pounds of toxic chemicals into the air,
land, water and underground.
