Thanks for posting this article with the quote by W. Edward Griffin:

"Bayer Chemical funded a large-scale study in Europe and the UK hoping to prove that neonicotinoid pesticide, manufactured by Bayer, is harmless to bees. The results, however, confirmed what farmers and bee keepers have been reporting for over a decade: Bee-colony collapse is directly related to the pesticide."

Different parts of the U.S. are experiencing varying amounts of bees. I know a lady in Oregon. She has almost the same bee-attracting plants as me in New England. She hardly has any bees. I have an abundance of bumble and honey bees. I will add a Mason bee colony station next year.
