There are really no words to express the disgust with how CAFOS pollute our air and water, poison our land, and mistreat animals and humans. The fact that they are even allowed to exist in this country is a true testament to the greed and apathy of government agencies in rolling over for big ag.

I will not ever believe any politician who claims that they care about the environment and food safety regardless of how many empty bills they pass, until CAFOS are regulated and those regulations are either enforced or the CAFOS shut down. I have two words for those as well who may try to make excuses for these bastards: Swine Flu.

Factory farming and industrial agriculture will be the death knell of small farming if we do not speak out against them and demand sustainable agricultural methods that respect our land, air, water, worker rights, animal rights, the health and safety of others, as well as respecting the right of small farmers to farm their land and sell their products without the threat of disease and pollution!

You want an effective healthcare plan? Well look no further than demanding change in the agricultural policies of this administration as those before it that continues to bow down to corporate agriculture over the rights of its citizens!
