Again, red herring. Industrial agriculture is wasteful, yes... But that has nothing to do with crops being GMO or not, but the specific method of agriculture. Non-rotation, heavy reliance on fertilizer, increased soil degradation. All problems with standard crops, not just designer crops.

This is like saying that since antibiotic X is a very expensive, ineffecrive drug, that all antibiotics are bad.

This is already being discussed elsewhere, isn't it? One hopes that a thread discussing the unsustainability of alternative fossil fuels remains about the unsustainability of alternative fossil fuels.
