I would add this book to your list: “Seeds of Destruction”, The Hidden Agenda of Genetic Manipulation…by F. William Engdahl. You are a by-product of the takeover…you are just next in line…so you have to get up to speed in order to withstand what is coming at you….it has taken out the small agricultural farmers, including fruits, vegetables, and even flowers, now it is after the meat producers…it is already attacking raw milk and making organics a living hell….
Yes, amazing that our own government is turning against our own country’s SUSTAINABILITY and ABILITY TO RAISE HEALTHY WHOLESOME FOODS….!!!
Why is our government at war with our small food producers?
That book is on the list.
