4. I grew up on a farm that raised cattle.

It was a sad day when the trucks came to take them away knowing what their fate was especially the ones who had been born on the farm, that we sort of knew. I'm always surprised when people express disgust at meat grown in a petri dish & I wonder if they're aware of the ecological impact of their diet.

Jim Hightower writes a lot about how industry makes big promises to come into an area & then it's never as good as they say & then the community is stuck with them. If all they do is disrupt the economy & then leave is bad enough but when they mess up the environment that's a whole other level of criminality & evil.
