The Controllers have taken almost complete control of the World's food supply.
To really gain control of the food chain, one needs to start at the crux of it all - with the seeds. This is how the cowardly clandestine shadow-dwellers have ultimately decided to control the World's food supply.
Instead of a traditional farmer taking the seeds that he got from his current crop and saving them to be used the following year, now we have hybrid seeds that have been introduced to the farming industry over the years which produce stronger, higher-yielding crops. Over time, farmers didn't see the need to save the "old" traditional seeds and became reliant upon the genetically altered hybrids. Of course, the patents and ownership of these seeds are in the hands of those companies listed earlier -- the Monopolists.
Ken Corbitt stated in the August/September 1994 issue of Nexxus Magazine that "total control of the World's seeds and ultimately the survival of mankind itself is now in the hands of an elite cartel of multinational corporations."
What makes this scenario even more terrifying is an earlier mentioned entity called "The Terminator Gene", which is a "bio-engineered element that mutates a seed's genetic structure, rendering the seed barren and unable to reproduce itself."
In other words, the altered seed will produce a crop -- but only for one year -- and will not reproduce again the following year! Thus, in order to get new seeds, the farmer must go to the corporation that owns the patents on the transformed, genitically altered seeds. These seeds only produce one-time because of the built in "Terminator Gene" that gives all control to those who own the patents.
