Hmm. Inmates, you say? Maybe I think it’s fine that you go out of business.
“If our pullets had been vaccinated when we started lobbying the federal government in January, our pullets would have been saved right now. So we would have been able to restock much more quickly,” he said. “We need to access the vaccine that the federal government has already approved. We need to be able to start giving it to our flocks and the quicker that we can start vaccinating our nation’s poultry flock, the quicker that we can get back to normalized operations.”
Uh huh, uh huh, tell us who you voted for there pal? Also, how much do you pay your prison inmate ‘employees’?
That part was one of the biggest revelations to me. I had no idea Arizona had a for-profit jail system that is essentially pseudo-slavery.
It’s not pseudo-slavery, it’s actual 100% legal slavery according to the words of the 13th Amendment of the US constitution.
Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States
it’s slavery. no need to soften it
I don’t think there’s a state that doesn’t.
Arkansas, California, Delaware, Iowa, Kansas, Louisiana, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, New York, Oregon, Rhode Island, Utah, Washington, West Virginia, and Wisconsin do not use for profit prisons.
I really wish all able countries would move away from meat. The cruelty we inflict on these poor animals is absolutely insane.
Until we subsidize meat replacement options and get the price AT LEAST equal to regular meat, it just won’t happen.
Humans don’t need meat or meat substitutes though.
Look, we can debate meat vs vegan till we all go blue in the face. If you want humans to get off using real meat, we need an alternative that tastes like meat and costs the same/less. It’s as simple as that.
100% agreed. Ethics won’t win this war. It’s all about cost and convenience. Most people are looking at their personal bottom line.
Humans don’t need meat
Yes, some of us do. Not everyone’s body is made to thrive on a vegan diet. Many of us are medically unable to not eat meat.
Interesting. What sort of medical conditions require eating meat?
Probably ones that need protein
From a nutrients stand point you can get all that from non meat sources.
What has protein in it, other than nuts and beans?
I have IBS, GERD, anemia, & food allergies. I’ve seen medical professionals over the years and their recommendation is to eat anything & everything I can that won’t make me sick. I pretty much eat the same thing nearly everyday & most vegan protein sources make me sick.
That sucks and is a pretty common “gotcha” to justify the continued mistreatment and murder of animals. Lucky for you you were born the right kind of animal whose comfort and life in general somehow out weighs your dinner’s.
You think they are using their medical condition to “gotcha” you?
That’s just sad dude.
I feel so sad for all those chickens.
If you really want to gag, look up ventilation shutdown. It’s a method used to mass-kill chickens, e.g. in the event of a disease outbreak. It has also been used on pigs.
The entire animal-ag industry deserves to fail.
If you really want to gag, look up ventilation shutdown.
that’s the nice treatment, usually they just shred baby chicks alive or give them the electric chair treatment before slicing their neck open
I knew this. It’s horrible. :(
Now that’s a tiny violin!
