GMO Warning From Author Of "The Black Swan"

Nassim Nicholas Taleb, the author of “The Black Swan,” and hedge fund manager and author Mark Spitznagel wrote before the economic crisis of 2007 that the system was “fragile and unsustainable,” and at the time they were roundly criticized for it. Now they see analogous problems in GMOs and a too-big-to-fail mentality in the agricultural system, and they say their critics mount some of the same fallacious arguments now as they did then.
