Care for a deadly new strain of swine flu with your pork chop?
Since the family farm is a thing of the past, practically all the animals raised for human consumption are raised in huge factory farms. That means very large numbers of animals living in a very small space. The perfect condition for quickly and effectively breeding and spreading diseases.
Since humans have absolutely no nutritional requirements for the flesh of animals, the fact that we are endangering ourselves by purposefully creating ideal environments for breeding new, deadly strains of flu is unethical, immoral and indefensible.
The only reason huge factory farms exist is to satisfy humans taste for meat.
We put thousands of pigs together in a small space so we can have cheap chops. What is the result? Not only do millions of you die prematurely from heart disease and cancer because you dine on swine, all of humanity is put at risk by new, deadly diseases!
S*wine flu, another good reason to stop eating the meat.
