So what kind of ghastly chemical plant did the Brouses live next door to in Minnesota? in fact, the facility that was slowly poisoning this hapless family (and thousands like them across America) was a dairy farm. Not, however, a dairy farm as you might imagine, with cows chewing the cud or roaming freely in the fields.

This one was called a CAFO - a Concentrated Animal Feeding Operation - a 'mega-farm' where cows by the thousand live on concrete and rarely get to see the sun, where they never actually graze, where their lives are shortened from round-the-clock milking.

This is a farm where huge quantities of hormones and antibiotics - administered because their miserable, cramped existences make the cattle prone to disease - are hosed away in the gallons of waste which they produce and stored in vast lagoons by the tens of millions of gallon, ready to be sprayed on to local farmland as fertiliser.

They forgot to mention the male calves are killed on their birthday and plowed back into the dirt as fertilizer.

"We'll know our disinformation program is complete when everything the American public believes is false." -- William Casey, Reagan's presidential campaign manager & CIA Director (from first staff meeting in 1981)


Watch the documentary "Food, Inc."

Disturbing, to say the least.

On this matter, make no mistake. I want you to go fuck yourself long and hard, as well as anyone who agrees with you. I got no use for you.

Fuck you, you cock sucking community activist piece of shit.

Oh yeah. In the meat, in the milk, in the groundwater (awful stuff if you have a family with a contaminated well, you want to talk about government stupid-making programs, see the effect nitrate contam has on young children), in the fertilizer and in the crops grown from the fertilizer. River lakes also contaminated. Bad.
