These "new fangs" we owe to the false god of Free Market. Agrobusiness in search of little extra profit feeds huge number of animals with PRECIOUS antibiotics. This leads to the emergence of drug resistant germs and in the end one of the greatest advances in medicine will be destroyed.
The sad part is, that this will be just another case of "and the band played on". Globalism will probably affect the demise of civilization. I think it might be fun to dig out of the ashes, like in the aftermath of a decent asteroid. Imagine the fun of inventing steam locomotives all over again.
Seriously, the fools in control don't care. The really high-up fools can insulate themselves from nasty consequences such as these. I'm beginning to hear that awful voice in the back of my mind that says, "The Tree of Liberty is getting thirsty".
