Found one of these with blue eyelashes discarded in a gutter years ago , and brought it home . Couldn ' t abide the thought of something so cute , which was probably a babys ' lost toy , getting swept up trashed . <| sep |> Agribusiness is a huge problem in this country . Corn is sold at a lower price than production to fuel big business . There are about 5 companies that control the entire agribusiness conglomerate . Look up Monsanto and their influence on govt . Farmers are even forced to buy genitically engineered sterile seed that produces great yeild but can ' t be replanted . Meaning the seeds can ' t reproduce the same plant . Corn requires 2 calories of petroleum to yeild one calorie of corn . Foreign oil dependence ? ? Thank agribusiness . Want to talk about NAFTA ? ? All our cheap corn destroyed much of the agricultural business in Mexico . Farms collapsed . Wonder why they come here ? ?? Thank many parts of NAFTA . Much of this info is outlined in Michael Pollans ' book The Ominvores Delima . If you don ' t like books , watch Food Inc on Netflix and you ' ll get an overview of just how fucked our food industry really is . The meme is funny because it ' s right .
