Killing of Mansanto

had a great idea the other day! Lets start our own conspiracy!!!!!!!!!!
Instead of everyone giving donations to Green and Ecco groups to fight Monsanto and pay for political counter action, give all that money to one organization that pays farmers to NOT buy Monsanto seeds. We instead pay them to grow what we want them to grow. If we gave each farmer $100,000 a year simply as an incentive, they could still grow whatever it is they are growing, do business, sell there produce and make what they would make as an Organic former. The 100 Gs would be a payoff to pull them out of the system and away from corporate and government intervention. With the added subsidized income the price of Organic could also be dropped so more people could afford it and choose organic over conventional. Instead of fighting these huge companies with hug money, we simply took their customers away from them. What would happen if no one bought from them any more, they simply had no customers? How much power do they have in a world that has no need for them? What if we carried that concept across the board. It is too difficult, too expensive and too futile to battle the big money and power of government and corporate giants. Isn't it easier to just do business without them?
If 200,000 people paid $500 a year, thats $41.66 a month, then that could pay 1000 farmers across the US $100.000.00per yr. to do business as an Organic produce producer.
OK so we start with 100 farmers, then 1000, then 10,000…
Each farmer could agree to be part of the program they would pay back into the program 5 or 10% of income generated from the sales of their produce. They still get the 1000Gs a year as members. The whole thing could work like a nationwide co-op. Members pay a yearly fee, like say $500 and then get a discount on any item you purchase that is subsidized by the program. Oh do I hear a name in there? NSSOC the National Subsidized Sustainable Organics Co-Op. Celeb Events, concerts, Rallies est. could raise money and public awareness to build the program. Feeding more money into the program to recruit more members both farmers and public supporters. How about if it even has its own Organic certification standards. Why not bypass the whole US Certified Organic BS. That way we could exclude the Wal-Mart’s and the likes from the program. I can see it now; produce on the shelves’ with NSSOC stickers on them. F~*k the system we just create our own produce.

What do you think?
