Prop 2 Opponents Charged with Laundering Money and Concealing Out-Of-State Contributions

When you consider how these agri-business people torture birds and exploit workers, this isn't at all surprising. Why should they be expected to play fair in politics? They have no ethics.

When you tell farmers to make larger the stalls for there animals you do the following:

A. The more space in a barn for each animal is used, the more barn space is needed.

B. The more barn space thats needed the more land is needed.

If you double the space for each animal the farmer will have to build more barns. In order to build more barns the farmer will have to buy more land.
If your telling the farmer to go broke then lets hear it. Why doesn't the HSUS PUT THERE MONEY WHERE THERE MOUTHS ARE AND BUILD BARNS FOR THE FARMERS THEY ARE MESSING WITH? This is COMMUNISIM.

MaryF,

This proposition will mostly concern the huge "factory farm" operations. Your average mom and pop farm probably isn't confining these animals to a great degree anyway. Considering these unscrupulous factory farm operators are funneling MILLIONS into false advertisements hoping to torpedo this rather MODERATE initiative, I'd say those bastards have MORE THAN ENOUGH money to make the proper adjustments.

Millions of animals are denied their most FUNDAMENTAL behaviors, you know, things like being able to TURN AROUND and SPREAD their wings. Why it's a stretch to believe people actually want to afford those things to animals is beyond me.

Finally, in the unfortunate event that some family outfit goes out of business due to this initiative, SO BE IT. Animals are not a commodity like Nike shoes in a warehouse. When you choose to do business in the animal agriculture business, you are expected to keep a proper balance between ANIMAL WELFARE and profit. The current practices appear to favor just the latter. It's high time the animals see something come their way. The factory farming industry has had free reign for far too long.

Mary F,

I believe you are mistaken by the term "communism." The word communism (as quoted from the dictionary) means:

1) a theory or system of social organization based on the holding of all property in common, actual ownership being ascribed to the community as a whole or to the state.

2) (often initial capital letter) a system of social organization in which all economic and social activity is controlled by a totalitarian state dominated by a single and self-perpetuating political party.

Now what part of helping suffering animals, and making those who are morally sinful, repent for their crimes, communism? Please do some more research before you make ignorant judgments.
