oh yeah, this is what the pastorโs wife said to me when I was in โฆ 9th grade.
The main thing to remember is - industrial scale slaughterhouses connected to the restaurant industries (esp. national and international chain restaurants).

Interesting history moment:
When The Jungle was published, consumers abandoned commercial meat en masse out of righteous disgust. They didnโt become vegetarians, though; they turned to their local farmers, who they trusted and knew were raising and killing animals more humanely.
In response to this, big meat got the government to pass a bunch of laws making it impossible to sell farm-slaughtered meat. Itโs still extremely difficult to this day.
We have regulatory capture to thank for the way things are. Iโm glad to see things are changing thanks to the growing food freedom movement and distrust in government.
this makes me rethink the phrase โmoney is the root of all evilโ to something like, the desire/drive to be rich at the expense of other things is the root of all evil. โน๏ธ
whatever way people have of reducing the suffering of animals is good. It could be opting out completely and being vegetarian/vegan, or drastically reducing or eliminating red meat, or only getting meat from smaller, local farms.
