The thing about organic is that it costs more because the growers aren't able to produce it in the same volume as the big companies that do use pesitcides. But of course they use fertilizers, just not ones that have all kinds of chems in 'em to stimulate growth and so forth. True organic farming is no scam, but apparently there are a lof of producers out there billing their foodstuffs as organic while still using pesticides and chems and whatnot.

This topic was hard for me to overlook as it touches me on everyday basis, whether it involves my friends or those I look up to. Let's not be fooled into thinking that doing drugs in any amount (whether you can control your habbit or not) is the right thing to do (whether for yourself or those around you). No disrespect to anybody here stating that some people just have an addictive personality, therefore we should understand their addiction to drugs, let alone dismiss it as an ok behavior.
