In my opinion,I am fine with the idea of genetically modified crop because it has many benefits:

  • economic benefit:more crop can be raised
  • environmental benefit: less pesticides are used
  • human factor : whole world can be fed,poor can be fed all over the world,impossible without genetic crop.
  • vegetarian non-veg food can be grown
  • nutritional content can be improved
  • longer shelf life
  • medical benefits from GMO crops"pharmingëg:added vitamins,proteins
  • more appealing food
  • easier to transport

Answer: In my opinion, in a world  where there is still a lot of problems with food production and supply, I believe it is justified that research in bioengineering and genetic fields has been conducted over the past decades. The controversy in the agricultural sector when it comes to genetically modified crops resides in that it represents increased farmer profits for those who can afford to introduce technologies that enable their plants to be herbicide tolerant and insect resistant, but those who can't, don't have a fair chance. There are different legal and regulatory norms for GM foods according to each country,  some ban or restricting them, mostly due to environmental impacts.I would personally consume products grown in a GM corp as long as I know they comply with the current local regulations and they are not abusive to the environmental balance.

Explanation: Genetically modified crops are those in which the DNA has been  modified to satisfy certain production needs and produce genetically modified foods, or GM foods and other plants that are used in the production of pharmaceutical agents and some sorts of biofuels. Every country has its own regulations on the matter.

The Mongol Empire (Mongolian: Mongolyn Ezent Güren listen (help·info); Mongolian Cyrillic: Монголын эзэнт гүрэн; Mongolian pronunciation: [mɔŋɡ(ɔ)ɮˈiːŋ ɛt͡sˈɛnt ˈɡurəŋ]; also Орда ("the Horde") in Russian chronicles) existed during the 13th and 14th centuries and was the largest contiguous land empire in history.[2] Originating in the steppes of Central Asia, the Mongol Empire eventually stretched from Eastern Europe and parts of Central Europe to the Sea of Japan, extending northwards into Siberia, eastwards and southwards into the Indian subcontinent, Indochina and the Iranian Plateau; and westwards as far as the Levant and the Carpathian Mountains.

Both the House and the Senate have passed bills regulating the food packing Industry. The bills are very different. What happens
sasho [114]

Answer: The Bill Is a Law

If a bill has passed in both the U.S. House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate and has been approved by the President, or if a presidential veto has been overridden, the bill becomes a law and is enforced by the government.

If the bill passes by simple majority (218 of 435), the bill moves to the Senate. In the Senate, the bill is assigned to another committee and, if released, debated and voted on. Finally, a conference committee made of House and Senate members works out any differences between the House and Senate versions of the bill.

To become a law the bill must be approved by both the U.S. House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate and requires the Presidents approval. There are two different types of bills, private-bills that affect a specific individual and public-bills that affect the general public.

Sometimes, the resolution of differences between the House and Senate proposals may instead be accomplished through a conference committee. A conference committee is a temporary committee formed in relation to a specific bill; its task is to negotiate a proposal that can be agreed to by both chambers.

After both the House and Senate have approved a bill in identical form, the bill is sent to the President. If the President approves of the legislation, it is signed and becomes law. If the President takes no action for ten days while Congress is in session, the bill automatically becomes law.

What was traded for slaves on the west coast of Africa?
Rufina [12.5K]
The Slave Coast is a historical name formerly used for parts of coastal West Africa along the Bight of Benin. The name is derived from the fact that it was a major source of African slaves during the Atlantic slave trade from the early 16th century to the 19th century.

What arguments could be made for or against forcing people to buy health insurance?
scZoUnD [109]

This is in my opinion one of the aspects that makes the central courts and the different lines of thought within a single subject so interesting. The clash of ideas that we have in this case is a perfect example.

On one side we have those who look at the current 30 million uninsured Americans, which include millions in Texas, and the undeniable success it had in Massachusetts. Most of them conclude that this mandate is a government success.

On the other hand, we can find those who believe that this is a terrible invasion of the government to the citizen's free will to choose their own healthcare options, they see government overreach, and at the same time an unprecedented intrusion on individual liberties to which there is no justification.

Unfortunately this is something that millions of Americans have been forced into. It's evident how they refused to create a public health care system, and instead give more power to the private sector.

After this short debate of ideas, I will give you one question to ponder on: Which principle is more important? Your freedom, your civil liberties, and your freedom from the government line of thought, or the possibilty of providing health care to millions of uninsured Americans?

I hope this solves your question!
