SOCIAL JUSTICE
NOTES ON SOCIAL JUSTICE
Began the day after the Protest of the Century which Won Against the
WTO
December 4, 1999
Following are various thoughts and brief essays about Social
Justice. If you agree with them, you are welcome to borrow them and
reprint them. If you know more about the subject than I do, you are
welcome to borrow what I have written and add to it. My e-mail address is
jhaag@u.washington.edu. Let me hear from you.
NOTE: I won't have a chance to work on this further until January, 2000,
but again, let me hear from you, and what you send me, I will incorporate.
Topics
Merging of the Multinationals, banks, oil companies, hi-tech companies,
etc.
Soon there will be just 100 of the world's riches people owning 95% of the
world's wealth instead of 200.
Patenting Human Genes
Most of the world does not have genetic diseases! To allow the medical and
pharmacutical establishment to patent our genes for "good purposes" and
then charge exhorbitant prices for their services and drugs -- and
consequently own the rights to our bodies, our genes, our chromosomes, our
micro-organisisms, our plants, our animals so they can sell the world's
"common wealth" that has been freely given, exchanged, researched since
the human species began!!!! -- is NOT ACCEPTABLE! Help to repeal the NEW
patent laws that allow for the patenting of human genes, et al.
Genetically Modified Food
Most of the world does not want to eat genetically modified food. The
Montsano's of this world do not want to hear this. They are trying to
prevent us even knowing whether or not we are eating altered substances.
Lobby for labeling of genetically modified food, and BOYCOTT ALL
tampered-with food substances. Eat Organic Only! if you possibly can.
Montsano's motive in meddling
with agriculture is not to "feed the world" -- the world is perfectly
capable of feeding itself, if left to grow organic food under a system of
sustainable argriculture -- but to buy up, own, and control the food
supply of all human beings!!!
BOYCOTT
Below is the beginning of a list of known genetically modified foods.
DON'T EAT THEM:
CORN, corn syrup, corn-meal, all those deliciouis Mexican chips and
tortillas, if made in America -- unless specifically label organic or
non-genetically modified -- are likely to be tainted.
SOY BEANS, all soy products, soy milk, soy oil, etc. Indeed
this one is ironic, since so many health foods have, since the beginning
of the health food movement, been made of soy. But now! DON'T EAT ANY OF
THEM! unless they are labeled organic or non-genetically modified.
I know there are many more genetically modified food substances -- help
me identify them and list them! In January this list will, I believe, be
shockingly long.
