German pharmaceuticals and chemicals giant, Bayer, announced plans to cut 12,000 out of 118,200 jobs worldwide, or roughly 1 in 10 jobs, in hopes of cutting costs and regaining investor favor after a series of legal setbacks over its purchase of Monsanto earlier this year.
As the FT reports, the proposed reorganization include a plan to exit the market for animal health products, as well the company's Coppertone sun care and Dr. Scholl’s foot care product lines; Bayer also plans to sell the group’s 60% stake in service provider Currenta.
"Including the synergies expected from the acquisition of Monsanto, Bayer anticipates annual contributions of €2.6bn from 2022 on as a result of its planned efficiency and structural measures," the group said in a statement.
Werner Baumann, the Bayer chief executive, said: “With these measures, we are positioning Bayer optimally for the future as a life sciences company.”
The group’s shares have tumbled in recent months, after a California court awarded $289MM in damages to a school groundskeeper with terminal cancer.
The jury found that the man’s sickness was the direct result of his exposure to the infamous weedkiller manufactured by Monsanto. The sum has since been reduced by a higher court, but analysts and investors worry that the avalanche of follow-up cases will be costly for Bayer all the same.
I must give credit to Commiefornia for one thing: they actually challenged this corrupt damn corporation. In a very few rare instances, Commiefornia is good for something.

They are facing all kinds of lawsuits now, which is healthy and good. They shouldn't be allowed to poison people for profit. They can sell their GMOs but they shouldn't use that toxic pesticide if its harmful. FDA and EPA is corrupt to the core for allowing this.

Corruption is falling down. Don't confuse corruption with Capitalism! Capitalism also provides us non-GMO and certified organic foods too!
Elijah Baker
Something as corrupt as Monsanto going down or being bankrupted would be great for capitalism and the free market. We would see alternatives, many healthy new companies that promote better product. Monsanto is trying to monopolize but luckily for us, they are losing the fight.
Hudson Rivera
Let these workers get a real productive job for once, like faming some organic crops for a change.

agreed crony capitalism helps no one except corrupt (((politicans))) (((executives))) and (((shareholders))) back to fordism I say.

They are probably shutting Monsanto down because they did not pay protection money.

They are facing many, many dozen more lawsuits after the recent exposure that they covered up Glyphosate causing cancer.

Good, let them crash and burn.

Then find a better one, that is a great source right there.
Golden Rice, vitamin A enriched rice, ist the poster child of GMO. Many people argue that there should be no regulations on GMO, because Golden Rice could be a remedy to vitamin A deficiency among mothers and children in third world countries.
But it's not even on the market (pic related).
So while >80% of all GMOs are for toxin-resistance, like Roundup ready, we should have no regulations, because there might be a product in the future that might be good? Golden Rice is in development since the 1990s and the release was pushed back for 15 years.
Also there is a safety concern with “Golden Rice”. That is the presence of retinoic acid, which is a metabolite of vitamin A and linked to causing defects of fetus. Earlier strains required people to eat 1.5kg rice daily to meet the vitamin A requirement. Newer strains have higher risks related to retinoic acid.
Yea it's really sad isn't it. They wont report on that in the news because they don't want to.

Its simple: this kind of news shatters the corporate narrative. If enough people knew that there are healthy alternatives to fight diabetes, cancer, dementia, Alzehimers, etc. what would happen to Big Pharma? Their stocks would tank! Their profits would implode! People would wake up to their massive fraud, and it would destroy billion dollar pharma industries. They cannot have that, so they will do whatever it takes to keep people unaware. Even murdering doctors who find out about their fraud!
Blake Myers
Then we will keep eating healthy, spreading the truth, and always doing the right thing. On the good path then!
Adrian Ramirez
Also, this is the reason Big Pharma was lobbying politicians back in 2011 to literally BAN all supplements. Luckily they failed, there was massive anger and pressure put against that. But Big Pharma actually wanted to gut and ban the free market to maintain their monopoly and they almost succeeded too.
I am one who does believe that they do really hate us and want us gone and out of their way. They think they own the world, and deserve it all for themselves, greedy fucking snobs.
Luis Lewis
This is why they also want to bankrupt and kill off the middle class of America too. Back in the day people had enough money to fight these kinds of bureaucratic land grabs. Now days most people are working their asses off living paycheck to paycheck. AGENDA 21!

Capitalism is "options", the market.
Socialism makes you drink roundup, because we all drink roundup.
