Wouldn't it be great if seeds from GMO plants were sterile?  Then, unlike with regular seeds, farmers would have to buy them over and over again.

Wait, Monsanto already does that, right?  No, but it's a nice myth.  Heck, I bet even Monsanto lets that one slide, because then gullible people will buy their seed every year, even for crops that don't need it. And it perpetuates the shrill claims by anti-science progressives that evil corporations are all corporation-y and out to kill us all with their evil seed, except when they are getting rich making us addicted to it.

And if you accidentally get seeds from a Monsanto crop, they are going to sue you, right?  Well, that isn't true either.

Like most anti-science nonsense, critics have invented cultural and legal myths so they can pretend they are anti-corporation and not anti-science.  But NPR writer Dan Charles busts those and three other myths, including the big reason that Proposition 37 in California has to exempt organic food - because because being genetically modified does not mean it is not organic.
