Europe always leads the way in the development of statism, and this is an example of what seems crazy now, but which will be normal in 10 or 15 years, unless we actively resist.
"A new law proposed by the European Commission would make it illegal to "grow, reproduce or trade" any vegetable seeds that have not been "tested, approved and accepted" by a new EU bureaucracy named the "EU Plant Variety Agency."
"It's called the Plant Reproductive Material Law, and it attempts to put the government in charge of virtually all plants and seeds. Home gardeners who grow their own plants from non-regulated seeds would be considered criminals under this law."
Now how about that! If you don't get your garden seeds approved by a government bureaucrat, the cops will be coming for you. If you save seeds from your squash plant, you're a criminal!
You know this is coming here. The government simply must control the most minor aspects of our lives.
It sounds like they want to control the food supply, control the food, you control the people.
ReplyDeleteControl your access to healthcare, control your ability to protect yourself, control even your right to plant a garden without their permission, it's all about control. Then add in taxing more and more of your money away, and that control is virtually complete.
