50 years ago, GMO was literally a sci-fi dream that was our only realistic hope for feeding an ever-increasing world population. Unfortunately, yes, Monsanto (and a few others) have more or less ruined that dream. They've found ways (arguably at least) to feed the world and instead of sharing that technology, they seem intent on controlling the world's food supplies and that scares me much more than the GMOs themselves. I don't think anyone would want to deprive Monsanto of their due profits, but not at the cost of ransoming the global food supply.
