Thanks for sharing this one. I just posted it to my Facebook, too. Other than emailing our repersentatives, how can we get the subsidies changed? It is a problem that seems SO OBVIOUS, yet no one is Washington ever talks about it! Or do they? Maybe I missed it...

Obviously Washington is interested to keep it quite. Meat industry and big corporations run the show there. That's the reason we should educate people and bring the attention to public so these facts can not be hidden anymore. This is the first step. Educating and increasing awareness are one of the purposes our group.
Thank you Cara for sharing.

That's right. If anyone can share this fact to TV audience, please let me know. It's time to tell people and government to switch support and subsidies to organic farming.
