Captive Breeding of Bees?

Captive Breeding of Bees.Though chemicals, cell phones or other factors still unknown might be causing that mass demise of bees there is something else that is fairly obvious to me.

Because humans selectively breed the bees and choose who gets the royal jelly and who doesn't and have done this at least as long as I have been alive they have interfered with natural selection. Beekeepers, not being educated in this way might not be looking in this direction. However, I firmly believe that they need to return to the wild to find bees who have lived without humans for 25 years or more. Then they might be safe to take these genetically more survivable bees and not have the kinds of problems they are having now with man bred bees which I believe would be inferior in health because of man's interference with natural selection in nature.
