You post a comment claiming “half truths and misrepresentation”, but you can’t even point them out or leave a link refuting them. Just because you don’t believe something doesn’t mean it isn’t true.

I am not Anti-beef, I am pro-survival of America as a nation! and if eating veggies will get us there, I will eat veggies - remember, not enough info on the web for aquaponics, the fast track to veggies and protein, which will probably come into vogue, in the great starvation, just after the complete collapse of "The Big Three" GM leading the way! Yes! the makers of the flagship of American Automotive prowess, the esteemed "Corvette" are on the block! Get excited America, Waken from your drunken stupor! Stand up! Fight for yourselves! Stop this insanity!, or not, depending on how good the last shipment from Mexico is? Fight dammit, fight!

If you had read the article instead of copying and pasting a pre-written stance on Anti-beef, you would have realized that I am not in support of the beef industry. Uncle B,

Boy did you get this one wrong. If you had read the article instead of copying and pasting a pre-written stance on Anti-beef, you would have realized that I am not in support of the beef industry.

Beef is a petroleum dependent product. SEE: “Cattle are fed prodigious quantities of corn. At a feedlot of a mere 37,000 cows, 25 tons of corn are dumped every hour. It takes 1.2 gallons of oil to make the fertilizer used for each bushel of that corn. Before a cow is slaughtered, she will eat 25 pounds of corn a day; by the time she is slaughtered she will weigh more than 1,200 pounds. In her lifetime she will have consumed, in effect, 284 gallons of oil. Today’s factory-raised cow is not a solar-powered ruminant but another fossil fuel machine.” SEE: http://www.earthsave.org/environment/foodchoices.htm First, the big V - 8 gasoline engine, then the beef, What next? Well, how about the whole American Dream. the great republican depression has brought convulsive change to America, now, GM, the builders of the hallmark "Corvette" are facing bankruptcy, as well as Chrysler - imagine a world with no more Chrysler "Imperials", only SMART battery cars from China! That's precisely where the Wall street money went, and where we are going - the capital money has already migrated to the Shanghai Stock Market. Americans must learn aquaculture fast, so that they can have veggies with their fish burgers. Most Americans will soon be unemployed, underemployed, part-time workers, or do casual labor for subsistence wages. The arrogant white-shirts among us will be the last to fall, fall hardest , and be the least likely to survive the great republican depression. Fact is: the corporations that own the factory farms are foreign investor financed, and one profit point away from migrating their capital out to better investments at any time, and Asia is looking good right now! Can you imagine trying to feed Americans without the huge investments in factory farms? Not possible! Anarchy! The end of America as we know it. We already have tent cities and huge numbers of uncounted Shanty town dwellers, stripping foreclosed McMansions for basic needs. Detroit is worse off than Johannesburg - a third world city, and we can pretend to the bitter end, but things are getting worse daily and we do nothing to change - not diet, not habits, not living standards, not dope consumption, nothing - We the people are maintaining a terrible "Status Quo" with our moronic sense of entitlement in spite of Obama's cry for change. Vegetarians are not the enemy, you are! Here, at the end of the “Cheap Oil Era”, we are about to change our diets drastically! Beef is a petroleum dependent product. SEE:
