[QUOTE="Kell-inKY, post: 1306249, member: 23511"] Caustic Burno, I am sorry you don't understand my point, suffice it to say, don't go around calling me a socialist. In a perfect world, everyone would self regulate, but we don't live in a perfect world. So what is the answer then? I don't want the government involved at all, but I certainly don't want to be eating beef that has been fed ground up other cattle. I don't know the perfect answer there. The reason we have regulations at all is because some idiot in the past thought it was OK to do such a thing, and they always say, don't worry, it's "safe", the government being the ABSOLUTE worse offender in this category. People are just wondering why livestock are so sick you have to feed a constant dose of medicated feed? It's a sign of a bigger problem. Is that what we are saying, that these animal conditions are so confined and filthy that we have to constantly feed them antibiotics for them to live? Sounds real appetizing. Can't we just get back to normal? (yeah, I know, population, modern farming etc. etc.) (I assume this is most likely aimed at those huge chicken and pig operations though, but I didn't read all the links). [/QUOTE]
