#6 The Meatrix

Many people don't know about where the food comes from and how to the processing.  They never go too fine the factory how to processing of foods.  I didn’t know factory farm is different between family farms before I watched The Meatrix movies.  I am sad to know the true about meat packing plant.

The Meatrix movies used the animal's point of view to talk about factory farm and meat packing plant situation.  Those factory farms put animals living in small places that they cannot freely.  In such a confined space, animals cannot breathe fresh air.  Over time, animals' resistance to drop a lot.  They in order to enhance Animals immunity, they added to animal feed with antibiotics.  Furthermore, they feed the baby cow in blood instead of milk.  After they antibiotic overuse, a lot of cow were mad cow disease.  They even wanted to avoid the chickens' fighting, so they cruel to cut off chicken's beaks.

It is not difficult to imagine a fast food nation like the U.S. thousands of tons of beef was consumed every year.  Factory farm gradually replace family farm because of factory farm feed animals speed faster than family farm.  Under the high-speed consumer environment, unscrupulous traders began to look for ways to artificially accelerate the growth of animals.  For example, they use many antibiotics to expedite animals’ growth. 

However, the factory farm want the everything is fast, so the meat packing become the most dangerous work in the nation.  They use the low selling price to attract fast food companies and people to buy.  They just for the pursuit of efficiency without responsible.  People who eat those foods will suffer from diseases.  This is a shameless of irresponsible business practices for the society and the masses.  How many people eat those foods as a result of obesity and suffering chronic diseases!  The government because of the fast-food company pay for huge tax policy each year that without the introduction of policies to regulate the industry. 

In my opinion, in order to our heath we should support the family farm and don’t buy the fast food.  This is the good way for us to reduce the factory farms.  In a word, in order to our health and living environment of animals.  We should clearly understand the source of production before purchasing food products.  Try to buy organic food.
