19. lies and hogwash

Dec 2013

if they could ignore the law of gravity the way they disregard basic economics....
the sheer overproduction demand desired by dairy producers using BGH, even while denying it,
the ever increasing larger and larger scale facilities being built by dominant dairies and the MASSIVE environmental costs of dairies and even worse cheese processing plants proves one thing- LESS WOULD BE BETTER IN EVERY RESPECT.
not even touching on the catastrophic health ramifications of a lazy and simple minded dairy rich dietary habit?
omg. come on.
lying through their subsidy and payoff protecting teeth.
add it up already America.
