Monsanto's Roundup, sprayed on millions of acres of crops and weeds across the

U.S. has been found to be " extremely toxic " to amphibians. A new study in the

journal Ecological Applications reveals that applying the recommended

manufacturer's dose of Roundup unexpectedly caused an 86% decline in tadpoles.

Researchers initially conducted the experiment to test the effectiveness of

Roundup, an herbicide, on algae, but discovered that the chemical actually

promoted the algae growth by killing off the frogs. According to Rick Relyea,

the study's lead biologist, " The most shocking insight coming out of this was

that Roundup, something designed to kill plants, was extremely lethal to

amphibians. "

What you see is what you get

You've made your bed, you better lie in it

You choose your leaders and place your trust

As their lies wash you down and their promises rust

You'll see kidney machines replaced by rockets and guns

And the public wants what the public gets

But I don't get what this society wants
