According to you, they don't because No, ****WIT. I never said animals can't benefit. I said animals can't benefit from anything - good treatment, ample food, veterinary care - UNTIL they're already alive. Life itself cannot be a benefit, ****WIT. Stop putting my name and address to posts, ****WIT.
