Then you probably don’t know much about it or obtain your income from it. People who know about the reality of corporate farming don’t generally like it.

I mean whats to like about a chicken that grows in a cage too small for it to stand up. For a calf to do the same because theres not enough veal. Or for turning dead animals back into feed for the live ones.

You probably didn't live in a rural town and get to watch it die a slow death, while large farms with huge tax subsidies and congressmen in their pockets took over.

The idea that our food supply is in the hand of a few people who only care about the money it brings in, rather then the land and their communities should concern you.

There was a reason for the orchestrated farm crisis of the 70’s, and it wasn't that family farms were doing a bad job, it was because some people saw an oportunity to make a lot of money on food, and roled over rural people who didn't have the money to buy congressmen.
