BORN TO BE FREE BOLDARN Oct.19th 2008 We claim our birthrights To look up trees into deep blue skies To breathe clean air over ancient lands To eat our food from pure soil directly To live with the elements interconnected To swim in rivers of wild current To grow under the sun , moon and stars Resting on rocks covered with lively moss The diamonds of nature our currency Trade free for all needs love and peace Limitless peace expression unrestricted Will set free future societies No more wars nor manmade laws Death to the thieves , the makers of wars ! Man’s only asset is his consciousness In a world of confusion Living the truth means loneliness Leading to ultimate freedom Life offers no guarantees - only one certainty : To sell your soul or rest in peace Freedom equals responsibility The only way to live sustainably Love to live life forever free
What a beautiful Women, Her passion and courage is awsome, i wish everyone could hear this talk, stand up for freedom and our God given rights to survive as nature intended.
Monsanto is researching in the wrong direction. It should be forcibly closed and it's public and privet assets should be stripped and divided among the US public. The politicians that voted for and allowed Monsanto to continue in it's policies should be removed from office and the individual wealth gained from the project assimilated also.
New politicians should be voted in by their support on irreversible issues and the vote should leave you with a paper trail from the polling place, you should be sent the vote conformation to your residence. This vote can be recounted at any time from your original copy.
GM should be left to fail. We would support a new car company making an electric car, forget the hybrids. Wayward banks should also fail since it is of their own wrongdoing. Paper money must be backed by real goods, land or gold, we don't want or need the Fed and that's the way it is here in the USA on this day of 4-10-9.
Thanks, I am convinced that with persons like Vandana in this world we are on the way to finding a way through the selfishness and greed that modernization has brought in its wake
I saw her speak in western Canada a few weeks ago, and was privileged to sit across the table from her at dinner. Wonderful person and wonderful insights.
