The suicides are a direct response to monsantos aggression, it has happened around the world not just in india, but hey your precious free market could never do wrong.
A nonsensical myth pinned on a convenient scapegoat.
GMO seeds have boosted crop yields and alleviated poverty.
Trying to pin the remaining poverty, mental health issues, and other issues (including the personal choices of some Indians to kill themselves) directly on monsanto is outlandish.
btw the so-called "free market" in India is ranked #123 in economic freedom.
Their government was highly interventionist and corrupt, and embraced socialism post WW2.
Furthermore, no one is suggesting a free market magically makes everything perfect and nothing bad ever happens.
