Too often do corporations and greed take precedent over more important things.  Why don't we care enough about what our money is supporting?  I know most people feel that they enjoy certain things in this life and they want to still be able to enjoy them, so they live in "blissful" ignorance.  That doesn't work for me.  I firmly believe that you should be able to be informed and still be okay with what you're supporting.  I can't knowingly support an industry that is more concerned about their pockets than how living beings are treated in their care.  The next time you sit down and eat something that came from an animal, think about a few things: what kind of a life that animal had to endure to end up on your plate, the pain and suffering it could have (and most likely) gone through, the antibiotics given to them that has led to superbugs and contamination of our waterways (also contributing to dead zones), the fact that we can feed so many more people if it weren't for factory farms, the environmental degradation, and that we are treating these animals...LIVE BEINGS...as mere commodities where their only hope lies in a species too selfish to stand up for them.  It's time for some compassion and selflessness.  This is a great way to start.
