hey bum,
I may have taken what you were saying father than you meant, it sometimes works that way with people you don't get to talk to face to face. I often wish we could all do the huterite thing. they take personal responsibility by each cycling through the slaughter duties for their whole community.
it isn't just an industry. It is a whole delivery system to bring low cost food (and higher cost food, too) to masses whose numbers are growing at a difficult to imagine rate. Food industries are under more pressure to reduce costs than to reduce cruelty or animal suffering. food is the adjective that goes with company - and companies are everywhere shortcutting and scrimping and still under pressure to do more, often at the detriment of consumers.
but still, as the big bad wolf says in the disney cartoons: little pigs is good to eat.
and thanks for the notice, puff =)
