Title. What the hell is going to happen? Anyone has more news? This is very upsetting to learn of and certainly bodes ill omen. Especially under the threat of the approaching TTIP.

Well, looks like business as usual...

I've heard that they will patent your semen, so next time you masturbate you'll need written permission from them.

Monsanto turned Bayer offfer down already, didn't they?

Good news. And for me, news. Thanks for contributing.

Like - no, for real - yes. Monsanto has funded the Ukrainian radicals for gen-modified/research corn fields.

The other part came also from Shell (fracking) via Biden link. Good sum up of my opinion on them. =)

My high school was next door to one of their corporate offices, I know everything about Monsanto. :P

So they are planning to produce genetically engineered politicians?
Can plant a full field of them and cheaplly fill the legislature.
New grow every 4-6 years, just on time and deactivate after another 4-6 years** xD
Awesome, reliable and cheap xD

The rests can be recycled for politician-favored sauce. xD

I heard North Korea already ordered a gallon of seeds! :)

** differents stems available!

Since Bayer is basically IG Farben I am only surprised what took them so long..

KiNgBrAdLeY7 and Mr e fusion? Like, for real?

Umbrella corp ftw.

Great news.
Bayer owns the German government and has the EU on their paycheck and Monsanto rules the USA.
Fun fact is that Bayer lost 7 Billion € after the announcement and now their market value comes close
to the offer for Monsanto...reminds me of Porsche trying to buy VW and in the end VW bought Porsche.

I for one am glad we move closer and closer to a single, centralized, all powerful, corporate god-emperor (TM).

Disney?
