*** What a load of manure. Vegans and animal rights types are certainly NOT
aginst "factory farming". The fact that it is the small family farmers that
they are assising to put out of business first should make this obvious to
any reasonable person.
The fact is that the number of small family farms such as ours decreases
every years and the number of large farms increases every year. The vegan /
animal rights crowd are helping to speed this process up
When a vegan / animal rights types uses information, disinformation,
half trueths, and propaganda to discourage others from consuming animal
products who do you think it is who suffers? The large farm with huge
amounts of capital behind them that allow them to take the resulting lower
prices or the small family farmer who is operating under slim margins
already?
The interesting thing is that if the vegan / animal rights types where
actually interested in getting rid of "factory farming" they would find a
lot of support and allies among the small family farmers. In fact the anti
"factory farm" retoric from each group sounds about the same.
