This is a National Science Foundation newsletter from 2009, it says Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation gave the NSF $50 Million. This is old news but $50 million goes a long way.

13 years later what does the National Science Foundation do?
Gives $500,000 to University of California Riverside scientist to see whether they can turn edible plants like lettuce into mRNA vaccine factories.

Now, does this explain why Bill Gates has been buying up all the farm land?
Fair warning, better start growing your own food or you will become a lab rat in the next Bill Gates research experiment.
I just heard the other day that of the 915 million acres of farmland in the US, Gates only owns about 240 thousand acres which is a very small percentage. I can't remember where I heard that.
Percentage!? What the fuck does the percentage matter!? Even at the TINY percentage WHY THE FUCK DOES ONE PERSON own what is a MUCH BIGGER tiny percentage THAN EVERYONE ELSE?
No I'm not making a dumbcunt equity argument.
I'm saying HIS INTENTIONS with the land, depending on what they are, don't require a large percentage. But they apparently require a lot presumably to create an influence in some market.
He's short Tesla $500 million right? Are you going to throw out "oh hey guys that's actually a tiny percentage of the market can't remember where I read that" /...
For all you know his "tiny percentage" of land grows 90% of some one thing that can affect a BUTTLOAD of people.
Or some other scenario like that.
If he's using the land to develop mRNA food-delivery systems then frankly I don't give a fuck if he only owns 1 goddamn acre. He owns too much.
Sorry I'm not trying to attack you or anything you were just stating facts.
But that fact by itself is dumb and misleading and pretty handshake.
