Small Farmers and Regulations:

Last week, Lookout, in their Weekly Watch, posted a link to an article about the government going after small farmers. This has been a problem I've personally been exposed to.

Most of us humans, especially if we grew up in the USA or another industrialized place, never experience life with other animals - beyond pets like dogs and cats. When I was a kid one wasn't even allowed to acknowledge that animals had brains, had feelings, and had functioning societies. They were just dumb beasts meant to abuse and eventually eat, maybe.
