One of the principle complaints of the anti-GMO crowd is that genetic engineering lines the pockets of mega-corporations rather than individual consumers. Well, what about if everyone was able to own shares in the companies working with this technology? Then we could turn the general public into evangelists for the technology and enthusiastic consumers of the resulting products.

That's the idea behind my company opening up it's seed round to the general public.

I'd love to know what this community thinks of this idea. Can it work?
