Companies should not be able to own DNA in plants.

Explanation:

It is against the spirit of the world at large and very ill advised to allow companies to own seeds and their DNA which would make them monopolize the produce of certain plants over another.

This can lead to catastrophic changes in the ecosystem as well as the risk that some plants required by people to be free will become costly and lobbied for.

This is a capitalistic endeavor that would lead to too much power in the hands of the corporations.

What important role do third parties often play in US national elections? HELPPP!
Yuki888 [10]

Third parties generally serve only to take votes from one of the main parties. Third parties generally serve only to take votes from one of the main parties. If the third party has a candidate promising similar things to the Rep. candidate, the Democrats are more likely to win simply because their votes are not being siphoned off. Think of it this way: if a school class were to vote on favorite colors and there were only blue and red to choose from, it would probably be mostly equal. But if the same class were to vote for blue, teal, and red, I would be willing to bet that red would win just because its votes weren't being split like the blue votes were. Teal is the third party. It won't ever win on its own, but it can be influential in that it can help the opposite party win.

Do you like ice cream? I sure do! Ice cream is the perfect treat to cool down, and tastes good too. It's so good you might want to eat it year round! Being frozen, you'd eat it in the summer, not the winter. The summer is hot, so it would taste good then, but who eats ice cream in the winter? The winter is cold, and I'd prefer a nice hot cocoa then!!!
